Adobe just filed an 8-K disclosing their CFO is leaving — on the same day they reported $6.62B in revenue ( 13% YoY). But buried in that same filing: a $70M goodwill impairment in their Publishing & Advertising segment that almost nobody reported on. That's Form 8-K. Companies must file within 4 business days of ANY material event: executive changes, acquisitions, earnings, bankruptcies, cybersecurity breaches. The headline tells you what happened. The 8-K tells you what it actually means. Track 8-K alerts for the companies you own → filingtrack #SECFilings #Investing

OpenAI. SpaceX. Anthropic. Did what?? I said, they All filed S-1s before the IPO! What?? they replied. Normal, they didnt know what an S1 was! 😳 Most investors will decide whether to buy based on hype. A few will read the filing. The S-1 is what a company submits to the SEC before going public. It's hundreds of pages. Almost nobody reads it. Here's what actually matters: 📌 Risk Factors — what management is legally required to admit could go wrong (OpenAI disclosed it loses $1.22 per $1 of revenue) 📌 Use of Proceeds — is your money funding growth or cashing out early investors? 📌 Dilution section — what did insiders pay vs. what you're paying 📌 Related Party Transactions — where the conflicts of interest hide The information to make a real decision on any IPO is public. It's in the filing. #IPO #SECFilings

An activist just crossed 5% in a company you follow. They want a board seat. They want a sale. They filed the roadmap with the SEC. Most investors will read about it in a newsletter tomorrow. A few will see the filing today. Schedule 13D is what activists file when they cross 5% ownership with intent to influence management. The SEC now requires it within 5 business days. Settian Capital just filed a 13D on Westwood Holdings, flagging it as undervalued and laying out M&A, buybacks, and board changes as options. That's not speculation — that's in the filing. How to use 13Ds: → Read the "purpose" section — that's the activist's playbook → Track 13D/A amendments — escalation signals live there → Watch for 13G→13D conversions — passive just went active The filing is public. The question is whether you see it in time. #ActivistInvesting #SECFilings

A CEO just resigned. The stock is about to move. But most investors won't find out for hours — after the headline, after the analyst note, after the first wave of trades. Form 8-K is the SEC filing that captures every material corporate event: CEO departures, earnings warnings, acquisitions, bankruptcies. Companies must file within 4 business days. No PR polish. Just raw facts. AIG's CEO transition, Rapid7's new CEO appointment, Resideo's leadership change tied to a spin-off — all of it appeared in 8-Ks first. The 8-K doesn't just tell you what happened. It shows you the separation agreement, the severance terms, the board vote. That's where the real signal lives. The question isn't whether this information is public. It is. The question is how fast you see it. Track 8-Ks on your watchlist in real time at filingtrack.com #SECFilings #Investing

A CEO resignation. A surprise acquisition. A cybersecurity breach disclosed to regulators. All of these hit an 8-K before they hit the news. Form 8-K = the SEC's real-time corporate events report. Companies must file within 4 business days of any material event. What triggers an 8-K: → Executive departures (CEO, CFO, board) → Earnings pre-announcements → Major contracts or terminations → M&A activity → Cybersecurity incidents In 2026: XPO, Groupon, Spire Global, and dozens more have already filed 8-Ks disclosing leadership changes. The gap between filing and news coverage is your edge. Track 8-Ks the moment they land at filingtrack .com #SECFilings #Investing

Settian Capital just filed a Schedule 13D on Westwood Holdings — crossing 5% and signaling potential activism. This is one of the most underused signals in public markets. What a 13D tells you: → An investor crossed 5% ownership → They intend to influence management → They must disclose their plans — M&A, board changes, restructuring 13D vs. 13G: 13G = passive. 13D = activist. That distinction moves stocks. New SEC rules: investors must now file within 5 business days of crossing the threshold. That window is narrow. Be early. Academic studies show activist campaigns generate 10–30% excess returns over 18 months on average. Track every new 13D and 13G at filingtrack .com #ActivistInvesting #SEC #filingtrack #Investing

SpaceX filed its S-1 on May 20 — the largest IPO registration in history at a $ 1.75T valuation. Most investors will skim headlines. Smart investors read the actual filing.

The Form 10-K is where companies must tell the truth by law — audited financials, risk factors, revenue recognition policies, going concern warnings. 5 things to look for in any 10-K: → New risk factors added vs. last year → Revenue recognition policies (check the notes) → MD&A vs. actual numbers (does the story hold up?) → Going concern language → Related-party transactions Get 10-K alerts AI summaries → filingtrack #Investing #SECFilings $AAPL $TSLA $AMZN Photo by Wesley Tingey on Unsplash

It's proxy season. Thousands of companies are filing DEF 14A statements right now — and most investors have never read one. That's a costly oversight. The proxy statement is a governance X-ray: → Exactly what the CEO made last year (salary bonus stock awards) → How long board members have served and whether they're truly independent → Which shareholder proposals the board tried to bury → Whether say-on-pay passed with 95% approval or a nervous 57% Red flags in a proxy show up in the stock price eventually. Reading the filing first is the edge. Proxy season ends soon → filingtrack . com #CorporateGovernance #Investing

Impactive Capital trimmed its WEX stake to 4.9% — then filed a proxy demanding 3 board seats. That's activist investing in action. And Schedule 13D is how the SEC makes it visible. Any investor crossing 5% ownership with plans to influence a company must file a 13D within 5 business days. The filing reveals who bought, how much, and exactly what they plan to do — force a sale, replace the CEO, demand a spin-off. On average, 13D filings move stocks 5–15% on the day they drop. By the time it's in the news, the move has already happened. #ActivistInvesting #SECFilings

A CEO just walked out the door. Did you know before the headlines? This week alone: NextEra's FPL CEO stepped down. HF Sinclair's CEO departed. Six Flags lost its CFO AND Chief Legal Officer — all disclosed via Form 8-K before a single journalist published a word. Form 8-K is the SEC's material event alarm. Companies must file within 4 business days of any major development: exec departures, M&A, bankruptcy, buyback announcements, board changes. Investors who monitor 8-Ks directly act on information. Everyone else reacts to news. Get 8-K alerts → filingtrack.com #SECFilings #Investing

Cerebras filed its S-1 on April 17. The first real Nvidia alternative you can buy is now public-record reading. How to actually read an S-1: Risk Factors — where the lawyers won (customer concentration, margin pressure) MD&A — the real business model behind the non-GAAP magic Cap table — founder/VC ownership post-IPO dilution Use of proceeds — generic vs. specific Auditor's report — "going concern" = serious red flag 2026 IPO pipeline: Cerebras, X-Energy, Quantinuum, reportedly SpaceX. Every one files an S-1 first. #IPO #FormS1

Pinterest. Norwegian Cruise. Synopsys. Align. CarMax. All attracted activists in Q1 2026. All disclosed the same way: Schedule 13D. The rule: Buy 5% of a public company with intent to influence management? You must file a 13D within 10 calendar days. Where the alpha hides inside the form: Item 4 = the activist's stated purpose (the playbook) Item 5 = how they built the stake (shares vs. swaps) Exhibit 99.1 = the letter to the board Target stocks tend to outperform in the weeks AND year after a 13D drops.

FedEx's CFO is out June 1. Robinhood's CTO separated last week. Teleflex's CEO walked in January. You learn about all of it from one form: the 8-K. Companies have just 4 BUSINESS DAYS to file an 8-K when something material changes: CEO/CFO/director exits (Item 5.02) M&A (Item 1.01) Bankruptcy Cybersecurity incidents Auditor changes Item 4.02 — past financials can't be relied on (the one nobody wants to see) The 8-K is the SEC's "breaking news" feed.

Every one of these events was reported via Form 8-K — the SEC filing companies use for material events between quarterly reports. 8-Ks must be filed within 4 business days.

Elliott Management won board seats at Phillips 66 last year. Starboard Value and Third Point are ramping campaigns across sectors. Activism is at record levels. When these funds cross 5% ownership, they file a Schedule 13D — a public declaration of what they plan to change. Section 4 ("Purpose of Transaction") is where the activist tells you their playbook. Board seats, asset sales, CEO changes — it's all there. A 13D filing is often a leading indicator of major stock price movement. Track them in Filingtrack! #Investing #SEC

SpaceX just filed its S-1 — the biggest IPO filing in history. Buried in 300 pages: Musk controls 79% of votes with 42% of equity. Super-voting shares mean retail investors get stock but almost no governance power. The S-1 is where companies tell you everything — revenue, risks, who controls what, and where your money actually goes. With SpaceX, Cerebras, and potentially OpenAI all filing S-1s this year, knowing how to read these documents is an edge. Track every #IPO filing the moment it drops #Investing

Omnicom's CEO just agreed to a $1 base salary for 2026. No cash bonus. No guaranteed equity. Just one stock option award — fully at risk, tied entirely to shareholder returns. That's buried in the DEF 14A. The proxy statement. The filing most investors skip. Proxy season is live right now. Here's what you're missing: - CEO pay: Is the bonus tied to adjusted EPS (gameable) or TSR vs. peers (not)? - DEI metrics: Many companies are quietly removing them from pay packages in 2026 - Shareholder proposals: The governance fights playing out before annual meetings - Board expertise: Who actually understands AI risk? Who has been on the board for 20 years? The proxy statement tells you whose side the board is on. Read them at filingtrack! #Investing #SECFilings #StockGains
