What the colours mean

Each root, and the card it starts from

  • RoutineThe gap exists but means nothing. Most threads land here, and saying so is the point.
  • AlignedWords and filings point the same way, but nothing was promised.
  • KeptA checkable promise the filings confirm was honoured.
  • MissedA checkable promise with a deadline, and the deadline passed without it being met.
  • TellThe gap reveals something the words alone would not. Red stays rare on purpose.
  • Still openAn open question. It runs to the date something is due to settle it.
  • Open callA published forecast still running, scored at its deadline.
  • Call wonA finished call that was right. Blue, as on the board.
  • Call lostA finished call that was wrong. It stays on the board for good.

Each step along a root

  • SaidTheir own words: a post, a speech, an interview, a call.
  • TradeA buy or a sell in a disclosure report or a Form 4.
  • FilingAnother document on the public record.
  • Law or orderA vote, a bill, an executive order, a rule.
  • CourtA complaint, an order or a judgment.
  • DataAn official number: Treasury, Medicare, the Fed, an agency release.
  • EventSomething that happened and is on the record.
  • StockThe move since the thread opened. Green up, orange down.

Words are blue. Documents are grey and told apart by their icon. The last step takes the colour of the verdict, or of the question while it is still open. Nothing here claims one thing caused another: it is what followed, in order, each with its source.

No receipts on Sundar Pichai yet. The file opens the day their words and filings first meet. Their disclosures are on the desk.

The playbook

He sells Alphabet stock on a schedule, most recently on September 16, 2026, and speaks about the company on a schedule too. The filings are frequent enough that words and hands can be set side by side most months.

Alphabet is also in court more or less permanently, and it is named in Meta's settlement as a company whose adoption of teen limits releases money. What Google says about its products in public and what its lawyers file about the same products are both on the record.

As with every scheduled seller, the plan footnote is read first. A sale under a plan adopted months earlier is not a reaction to anything.

What we're watching

  • Ongoing Form 4s as they land, with the plan adoption dates.
  • Ongoing Statements about YouTube and teen limits, against the terms of Meta's settlement that name YouTube.
  • Quarterly Earnings call claims about search and cloud, against the segment table in the next 10-Q.

Statement stream, awaiting a filing pair

  • Before the end of 2032, these uprate projects will add 890 MW of firm, 24/7 clean power to the PJM grid

    Google, The Keyword, "Why we're backing America's existing nuclear plants", by its global head of data centre energy, Oct 6, 2026

    The company's words and not his own. Google says a power purchase agreement with Constellation Energy pays for upgrades at 11 reactors in six plants across Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, "while ensuring other grid customers bear none of the associated costs", and that it has now enabled more than 1.5 gigawatts of nuclear capacity. What would test it: the power uprate applications Constellation has to file with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for each reactor, which give the megawatts and the dates, and the rate filings in those three states, which show who pays.

  • Today's successful launch with our partner @planet prototype satellite shows how far we've come...and how far there is to go.

    X, @sundarpichai, post 2105817662651777367, checked at source, Oct 2, 2026

    The first of the two prototype satellites Google said in November 2025 it would launch by early 2027. Opened as a watch.
