Prices are daily closes from Polygon.io. Company figures come from its own SEC filings. Past moves are not a forecast. OQRO reports what was filed and never tells you what to buy or sell.
Anyone owning more than 5% must file within days. Structured filings exist since December 2024, so older stakes that were never amended may be missing.

Labor condition applications for H-1B workers certified by the Department of Labor, counted by decision date (FY2026 Q3: Apr 1, 2026 to Jun 30, 2026, the latest quarter published). A certified application is a step before a visa petition, not a hire or a visa, and one application can cover several positions. Matched by employer ID number or name.

8-K on sec.govFrom the company's 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q filings over the last two years. A flag is a reason to read the filing, not a verdict: many departures are planned retirements and many listing notices are resolved. Insider sales are shown for timing only; they are separate filings.
Short sale volume: 51.5% of the volume reported to FINRA over the last 20 trading days was marked short, below its 1-year average of 58.8%. FINRA daily files, to Oct 2, 2026.
Fails to deliver: 14K shares (about $2.38M) were not delivered on time for settlement on Sep 11, 2026. SEC fails-to-deliver data.
Short sale volume is not short interest. It counts trades marked short, including market makers selling short to fill buy orders, so it is a share of daily trading, not a count of bets against the stock. Fails to deliver have many causes, including processing delays, and are often resolved within days.
