}Newest first, with a readable
transaction beside the SEC code. Purchases
and sales are the discretionary trades; awards, option exercises and tax
withholding are compensation mechanics, so purchases_usd and sales_usd
count only non-derivative purchases and sales.
MSTR is not included yet: its Form 4 lines do not record which share class
they are in, and its directors buy the preferred series near $100 par.Authorizations
