The market, drawn to scaleThe market
Each slice is one stage, drawn to scale — 964 processes in matters still open, in the order a sale travels. Cobalt deepens as a process advances; grey is concluded; the hatch is a process no filing has staged.
What each sale went for is for subscribers — the stated price, beside the purchaser. The stages, the counts and who bought are open to everyone.
