What counts, and where it comes from.
A row is a completed sale or spin-off of a business unit (a business, segment, division or named subsidiary) reported in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC during the month (or, on a weekly page, the ISO week, Monday to Sunday): under Item 2.01, completion of acquisition or disposition of assets, or in a press release attached to the filing that says the sale has closed.
Sales of buildings, loan books or securities are left out, as is the sale of a whole company. Seller, buyer and value come from the filing, and each row keeps a sentence from it and a link to it. Where a filing does not name the buyer or the price, the table says so rather than filling the gap. The sector is the seller's SEC industry code, not the unit's; where the seller has none (a private or foreign parent, named in a filing made by the buyer), it is the sector of the business sold.
Weekly pages start in September 2026. The months from January 2025 to April 2026, and some deals in later months, were added in October 2026 from every Item 2.01 filing in that window, read and classified by hand rather than by the weekly search.
