Filings, not trades: one notice can cover several trades. “Cos” is the number of companies. A dash means no figure, never zero. An asterisk marks a market with a note under Method and gaps.

Method and gaps
Every row comes from the filings each market's regulator or exchange publishes, parsed by MoatMap and dated by the trade date. “Directors” are board members and officers; 5% holders and people closely associated with a director are counted only in the all-filer totals above. Employee share-plan purchases are left out of director buys (4 this month).
Values are converted to US dollars at the latest exchange rate, and a filing whose value exceeds 1.5 times the company's market value is treated as a data error and left out of the dollar totals (it still counts as a filing). A company listed in two markets is counted once, in its home market. Buyback values are given only for markets that report buybacks daily; quarterly reports and programme announcements are counted but not valued.
