Dataexplorers appears to be focused on the securities lending business, which is a tiny segment of the market compared to what the parent is proposing. Also, I see nowhere on the site where they claim to "get all the information on longs and short trades throughout the day, from all the big investment firms, and produce a market snapshot", can you please provide a reference to the place where this claim, or a similar one, is made? Most likely they are simply analyzing all long and short trades in the market on a given day to provide information about expected lending fees, which is a far cry from being able to assemble an accurate picture of the securities held by various financial institutions for their own accounts.
- megablast 16y agoI used to work for them. We would recieve a huge list of the millions of trades that the big investment houses did, every single day. They only show a market snapshot, and try to make it impossible to determine what any individual company was doing - that was very important, for obvious reasons.
