2026-08-14: Garcia Cos Muntanola Beatriz (CHIEF FINANCE OFFICER) — VEST-AND-SELL (award vesting at $0; 2% of the shares sold came from stock already held) — $138.9K of GSM (open-market, Form 4, code S) [vest-and-sell: sold 32,292 sh, 31,693 of them (98%) vested 3 days earlier at no cost to the filer — so $138.9K gross is $138.9K net; the held position FELL by 599 on the day after 5,091 withheld for the exercise price or the tax (code F) — that many of the shares sold came out of stock the filer already held] [CORRECTION 2026-08-29: shape sweep — the day-gap was printed from the wrong end: the phrase hangs off the creation verb and the number is measured from the creation, so 'the next day' dated the vest AFTER the sale it supplied; the head denied a position reduction over a sale a double-digit fraction of which came out of stock the filer already held.

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.
