We released several exciting updates to Stock Promotion Tracker:
1. Follow interesting stocks using the star icon. This allows you to opt in to receive an email whenever we find new stock promotions for this ticker symbol.
2. Checking stock performance since the promotion date is now directly on the dashboard. The "Since promo" column provides data quickly.
3. Custom filters as well as the quick filters (bell icon) can now be saved as an email alert.
4. The dashboard pulse now gives a quick overview of recent data. Hot tickers show stocks above $100M market cap that have paid for multiple promotions in the last week. Users can also opt in for a weekly digest email containing a similar pulse.

Introducing https://t.co/Nmn2sTd3va, the world’s largest database of paid stock promotions
We are tracking hundreds of websites, email lists, YouTube channels, and much more to document the companies spending millions on stock promotion

Wolfpack is right about $POET's use of stock promoters.
Here are the 17 promotion-related payments and campaigns we've detected in our database
https://t.co/mOOC6expYt
We looked at the track record of the $POET's promoters. We found 41 other microcaps. Nine were delisted, halted, acquired or renamed. For the remainder, our analysis shows the median was down nearly 92% from peak and 88.7% from the engagement-date price
Here is an example of how things have gone so far with $POET
Oct 7, 2025: $POET closes a $75M offering. The “institutional investor” buys in at $5.50/share — 16.2% of the company.
Oct 8: The “institutional investor’s” position is back to 9.99%. ~5.8M shares gone in 24 hours, almost certainly sold into the retail demand the promotion created.

This week's updates on StockPromotionTracker:

• Clearer compensation transparency: each promotion now includes a “How we determined compensation” section that explains where the compensation numbers come from and how they were derived.
• Better “paid” signaling when amounts are missing: when we can confirm a promotion was paid but the dollar amount isn’t disclosed, the dashboard shows an explicit indicator.
• Ownership disclosure indicator: Our dashboard now displays when the promoter owns shares in the promoted company as disclosed by the promoter.
• Engagement-based comp detection: promotions compensated via clicks/views/engagement are now explicitly labeled.
• Improved exports for Institutional Mini and Institutional Standard users: the dashboard export menu now includes a PDF option.
