Are You Watching?                   (August 25, 2008)

Are there certain public companies you have your eye on? If so, how soon will you know when they’ve filed with the SEC? If you’re a Securities Mosaic subscriber, there’s no reason to even wonder. Our SEC Watchlist Alerts feature is one of our coolest tools, and it’s included (as with every one of our Securities Mosaic features) in your license at no extra charge. What’s more, we’ve just launched a new, user-friendlier version of the Watchlist which makes setting up and editing your alerts quicker and easier. This new version incorporates many helpful suggestions from you, our users.

If you access Securities Mosaic as part of an organization-wide, IP-authenticated license (meaning you see no login screen when you use the site), you will need to sign up for a personal account in order to set up your customized SEC Watchlist. However, personal accounts are available free of charge for those who are part of an organization-wide license. And there are other advantages to having a personal account, including the ability to use nifty tools such as the Document Cart and Stored Searches. Click here to sign up for a personal account. 

Did You Know . . .

●   If you have a Watchlist Alert set up, you’ll be notified by email of a filing shortly after its initial entry into the EDGAR system.

●   You can set up alerts with all sorts of parameters, not just a given company’s name. For example, if you want to know every time a company in the tobacco industry mentions the word “cancer” in its filings, then you can set up a Watchlist Alert to notify you of exactly that.

●   You can elect to have SEC Comment Letters and Responses included in your Watchlist.

●   You can temporarily de-activate particular alerts and re-activate them later.

●   There is no limit to the number of Watchlist Alerts you can have.

The SEC Watchlist is accessible from the “Quickfind” dropdown on any page in Securities Mosaic. There is also a link on the All SEC Filings search page.

As always, contact us any time for assistance using the Watchlist feature or help setting up a personal account. Customer Support.
