News and filings

What the marks mean
  • FactA filing (SEC EDGAR) or an exchange notice (Moscow Exchange): the issuer's or the exchange's own statement.
  • Media reportA headline from a named media outlet. We link to it and do not check it.
  • RumourUnconfirmed: the headline itself hedges (“reportedly”, “sources say”, “in talks”), names no publisher, or comes from a news aggregator or an automated republisher.

Source: Filings: U.S. SEC EDGAR · News index: The GDELT Project (gdeltproject.org). The tone is scored automatically from the headline and can be wrong.
