About Exchange Tracking

Why track SEC filings by exchange?

Different stock exchanges attract distinct types of companies with varying disclosure patterns, listing requirements, and investor bases. Filtering SEC filings by exchange helps investors identify sector trends, compare governance standards, and monitor emerging opportunities across NASDAQ's tech-heavy ecosystem, NYSE's blue-chip institutions, and OTC's growth-stage ventures.

Exchange-specific disclosure patterns

NASDAQ companies file more frequent Form 8-Ks related to product launches, clinical trials, and partnership announcements—reflecting the exchange's concentration in technology and biotechnology sectors. NYSE-listed corporations emphasize capital allocation in their filings, with detailed proxy statements for shareholder votes on executive compensation, board elections, and strategic transactions.

Listing standards and filing quality

Exchange listing requirements directly impact disclosure quality and frequency. NYSE's $200M minimum float and rigorous earnings tests ensure companies maintain robust corporate governance and comprehensive financial reporting. NASDAQ's three-tier structure (Global Select, Global Market, Capital Market) creates stratification in disclosure obligations, with higher tiers demanding stricter independent director requirements and audit committee standards.

OTC markets and variable disclosure

OTC markets present variable disclosure quality across OTCQX, OTCQB, and Pink tiers. While OTCQX companies provide exchange-grade reporting, Pink tier issuers may file sporadically or operate as non-reporting entities. Investors monitoring OTC filings watch for Form S-1 registration statements signaling uplistings to NASDAQ or NYSE, and Form 15 deregistrations indicating companies going dark from public reporting obligations.

Exchange Profiles

NASDAQ

The world's second-largest stock exchange, NASDAQ hosts over 3,000 companies across three listing tiers. Known for technology giants like Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon, the exchange attracts high-growth companies in tech, biotech, and fintech sectors.

NASDAQ companies average 6-8 Form 8-Ks annually, with filing spikes around earnings releases and product milestones. Form 4 insider trading reports are particularly important given the high equity compensation typical at technology companies.

NYSE

The New York Stock Exchange is the world's largest by market capitalization, hosting over 2,300 established companies including most Dow 30 and S&P 500 constituents. NYSE companies tend to be larger, more mature, and span financials, industrials, consumer staples, and energy sectors.

NYSE filings emphasize dividends, share buybacks, and major acquisitions. Proxy season (March-May) brings important DEF 14A filings with votes on executive compensation and governance matters. Financial companies file frequently about executive changes due to regulatory requirements.

OTC Markets

Over-the-counter markets trade stocks not listed on major exchanges, including small U.S. companies, foreign stocks trading as ADRs, and companies that lost their major exchange listing. Disclosure quality varies dramatically across OTCQX, OTCQB, and Pink tiers.

OTCQX companies file regularly like exchange-listed peers, while Pink tier may go months between filings. Watch for Form D private placements—OTC companies frequently raise capital this way—and Form 15 filings that signal companies going dark from public reporting.
