Replication Data for: “The Dollar Profits to Insider Trading”
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The dataset consists of 644,643 corporate insider transactions between January 1986 and December 2013 that were filed to the Securities and Exchange Commission using Form 4 under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The original filings contain information on the identity of the trader, the role within the firm, the number of shares that were bought or sold, the transaction price, the total share position of the respective trader, the date of trade, and the date of reporting. The data on trades are merged with other characteristics of the insider or the firm. <br><br> The dataset is used to investigate insider trading quantities and dollar profits to measure the benefits that insiders extract from their superior information. We describe and quantify the dollar profits, study the relation between trading returns and trading quantities and explore the determinants behind this relation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
