MA Mastercard Inc BEARISH conviction 1

2026-08-04: Kirkpatrick Linda Pistecchia (Chief Services Officer) — scheduled sell (10b5-1 plan) — $2.4M of MA (open-market, Form 4, code S) [10b5-1 plan] [exercise-and-sell: sold 4,280 sh, all of them exercised the same day at $173.49 vs a $570.31 avg sale — $742.5K cost to acquire, $1.7M net] [CORRECTION 2026-08-26: Wave 8 — the strike bill, the net proceeds, the retained count or the day-gap were computed over every creation on the filing rather than over the lot this sale actually took. Re-derived from the filing under the fixed parser. This supersedes the 2026-08-26 full-corpus-sweep correction on this row, which adopted the same parser's answer before the fix. Original text in signal_events] [CORRECTION 2026-08-28: served with "1,771 more exercised and kept — the held position ROSE on the day". Nothing was exercised beyond the 4,280 sold and nothing was kept: those 1,771 shares are an RSU AWARD granted on 2026-08-03, the day before, whose own footnote vests them in 2027, 2028 and 2029 — a future vesting schedule, not a settlement. On the 2026-08-04 sale day the holding opened and closed at 31,179.052, exactly flat. Every dollar figure on this row was right and is unchanged. Original text in signal_events] [CLASS DISCLOSURE 2026-08-28: this row predates the trade-date convention and no single trade date is stored for it; the leading date is the filing's earliest transaction date for this side — not the day the filing entered the feed, which was 2026-08-05. This is a class statement — nothing in this line has been recomputed and no figure is being called wrong.]

What these fields mean

Direction
Direction (BULLISH/BEARISH) classifies the event, not the price. It is not a forecast, and no scout's direction has been validated as predictive.
Conviction
Confidence is a heuristic conviction score, not a calibrated probability. On a single filing it is the scout's own 1-5 grade; on a row that rolls several filings together it is their SUM and has no ceiling, so it can read above 5. The stored number is published as it stands — never clamped, never hidden.
Dates
Dates are rendered exactly as filed. A sibyl row leads with the TRADE date the Form 4 reports; a pelosi row shows the member's trade date and the date the disclosure was filed, which are rarely the same day. "Flagged" is the day this feed first published the row.
Backfilled rows
A row marked "already old news when flagged" reached the feed after the fact. It is a record of a filing, not of a timely catch.
Sources
Every row links to the filing it was read from — an SEC Form 4 on EDGAR, or the disclosure document filed with the House Clerk or the Senate. A row whose source document this feed cannot link to is left off it.
