Is there an alternative to computershared.net that keeps track of all the shares owned by insiders, institutions, etfs, retail etc? I thought Computershared did a fantastic job of keeping up to date numbers, but since it went down I haven't been able to find a good alternative.

The reason I ask is because it disappeared rather quietly, and considering how important share counts are, I thought it critically important to follow.

The latest info I have is from May 29th, 2023

  • 15% institutions
  • 12% mutual funds
  • 10% etfs
  • 13% insiders
  • 5% insider stagnant
  • 17.1% pure drs
  • 10.9% directstock
  • .1% operational efficiency

This gives a grand total of 81.6% of shares owned.

I find it curious that the website went down when ownership was hitting these levels. VW's short squeeze was 62.6% ownership of total shares by Porsche and Lower Saxony, and 32% were "owned" through options by Porsche. Northern Pacific Railway had 94% of its total shares owned by James Hill and JP Morgan.

If there are 18.4% shares remaining, that equates to 56,074,000 shares. At a current price of $16.36, someone would need roughly 16.36*56,074,000 = $974,370,640 dollars to buy the remaining float. Who, or which company has that?

This is a fantastic opportunity to increase interest in Gamestop and DRS. DRS has slowed down because the user growth rate on superstonk has plateaued. Imagine millions of people watching this movie and then being open to the idea of investing in Gamestop. It's the perfect opportunity to talk about DRS and increase interest to a vast number of new individuals. This movie will be in a space that superstonk mods and shills have zero power / influence in. It's fucking amazing this movie is coming out.
