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?

August 15, 2023 SS post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/15s0c2e/happy_13f_filing_day_apologies_for_quality/ I haven't gone through the numbers on the screenshots, and I think someone mentioned one page was missing.

Old notes from DRSyourGME:

5/18/2023 numbers from lawsondt's compilation:
  • Outstanding Shares: 304,717,030
  • ETFs: 29,268,180
  • MFs, Index Funds, Pension Funds, etc.: 35,394,217
  • Other Institutional Ownership: 46,228,722
  • Insiders: 38,482,026
  • Insiders Stagnant: 13,961,696

\

Then 6/13/2023 numbers after known adjustments:
  • Outstanding Shares: 304,717,030 -> 304,751,243 Shares outstanding as of June 1, 2023 GameStop Form 10-Q
  • ETFs: 29,268,180
  • MFs, Index Funds, Pension Funds, etc.: 35,394,217
  • Other Institutional Ownership: 46,228,722
  • Insiders: 38,482,026 -> +10,000 +5,000 +190,638 +253,204 = 38,985,868
  • Insiders Stagnant: 13,961,696


8/15/2023 look again for free float number:
Free float: 304,751,243 - 29,268,180 - 35,394,217 - 46,228,722 - 38,985,868 - 13,961,696 = 140,912,560

8/23/2023 Estimated DRS count: 77,089,291
8/23/2023 Estimated DRS count minus 1,270,566 Mainstar rugpull shares: 75,818,725
