The Story So Far

LAST 6 MONTHS PRIMARY SOURCES ONLY
  • Jul 27
    3 insider transaction filings hit the record.

    Form 4s are events, not verdicts — officers, directors, and 10% owners reporting their own trades. The forms post hours before the media writes them up.

    RECEIPT: SEC FORM 4 × 3, TIMESTAMPED
  • Jul 27
    Chatter ran way louder than usual.

    2 mentions across the stream that day (+3.7σ vs its own baseline) — attention, not direction. Loud days mark where the crowd was looking.

    RECEIPT: NARRATIVE VELOCITY, 30-DAY BASELINE
  • Jul 16
    Money rotated out of high-beta cohorts market-wide.

    High-beta names lagged the blue-chips by 18.6 points over ten sessions around this date. Stocks in that cohort weren't falling alone — they fell together.

    RECEIPT: ROTATION GAUGE, LIVE
  • Apr 30
    The stock moved +9.9% in a single session.

    Sessions this size usually pair with a chapter above or below — a filing, a headline, or the whole cohort moving together.

    RECEIPT: DAILY BAR, Apr 30
