Which of the shares we hold were halted today, and when did trading restart?

Panbiota shows every US trading halt and pause, with the reason in plain words, the stop and restart times and whether an exchange reported a fault at the same moment, and alerts your desk on any name in your watch list.

Does a share really do better when several directors buy in the same week?

Panbiota knows what clustered director buying has tended to mean for a share, and what it likely means now, and alerts you when a cluster forms.

Can you show which funds are short a stock and whether they added before results?

Yes. Panbiota can build a daily table of disclosed short positions in the UK, France, Germany and Australia, with the change since the last disclosure and the named funds where the rules require it, flagging crowded names and totals growing into results.

Can Panbiota tell if one investor is building a stake?

It can alert when one investor in a Dutch, Japanese or US company crosses one ownership threshold after another, listing each crossing with its date and pace, so the build-up is visible notice by notice.

How much could we lose if our largest names all gapped on results in the same week?

Panbiota sets a week of results-day gaps, or a day of market-wide halts, against today's book, and shows the losses you could face, where the worst of it falls and how much of the book would be frozen by halts.

When several directors of a company buy its shares in one week, does the share really beat its sector afterwards?
Is one investor building a stake in this company, and how fast is it crossing each threshold?
Which funds are short this stock, and did their positions grow in the weeks before results?
If the five largest names in our book all gapped on results in one week, how hard could the book be hit, and how much would halts freeze?
What has this company disclosed this month, in what order, and how long after each event?

Modelled, tested, simulated, run

What we model, test and run.

Set-up, modelled

Crowded short into results

Shorts rising at several disclosures, several large funds short, directors buying, results within weeks. What it has meant before for price, shorts and halts, and what it likely means now.

Arbitrage set-up

One company, two listings

One share, two listings: Amsterdam and London, or Europe and its New York receipt. Flagged when the gap beats duty, fees, borrow and conversion, and how long it tends to hold. Never risk-free.

Theory, tested

Directors buying together

When several directors buy in one week: whether the share really beats its sector over three months.

Simulation

Results-season gap and halt simulation

Results season through your book: each share gapping its own way, or a market-wide halt day. Out: losses, worst cases and how much of the book freezes.

Engine

Equity execution engine

Works equity orders across exchanges, venues and closing auctions. Holds or reroutes on a halt, respects the short-sale test, stays inside your limits. Runs in your systems, on your rules.

What Panbiota can build

What we build for you.

Company event timeline

One live timeline per company across the US, UK, France, Spain and Japan: results, dealings, stakes, shorts, buybacks. Event time beside disclosure time; late notices flagged.

Insider and stake-building alerts

Fires when several directors buy on the open market within a week, not as pay: who, role, shares, price. A second alert tracks one investor crossing threshold after threshold.

Short-position gauge

Daily disclosed shorts in UK, French, German and Australian stocks, with the change and, where named, the funds. Flagged when several funds each hold 0.5% or more.

Halt and resumption model

Every US halt: reason in plain words, stop and restart times, any exchange fault. Each restart read against halts like it: how far prices are likely to run.

Execution quality tester

Each fill set against every trade on the main European venues in the same minutes. Shows whether a routing rule, such as more to the Frankfurt close, really gets better fills.
