GET /v1/activist/{identifier}
Schedule 13D and 13G filings — the disclosure anyone crossing 5% of a company's voting stock must make. Parsed from the SEC's structured 13D/G XML: issuer, CUSIP, the reporting person(s), and the exact percent of class.
13D vs 13G. A 13D signals possible activist intent (board pushes, a
sale, a strategy change) and carries the Item 4 purpose statement. A 13G is a passive large holder
(index funds, long-only managers). A
/A suffix is an amendment. If you watch one, watch new 13Ds.Parameters
