'new constructs' does very granular scrapings, maybe they would pick this up. (disclaimer: am a fan of their overall process)

Tianwei, is it possible to scrape the "quarterly earnings conference call" transcripts?

This could be another good source for what you're trying to do.

If feasible, what source do you get all/most CC written transcripts from?

I have the same question about where they are aggregated. It would definitely be possible to use Natural Language Processing to scrape them. I am not sure how I would tell the computer to look for differences in share count.

Like the others I wonder if there is service that tracks this. Certainly how you get the proxy. It is possible to screen scrape practically anything on a screen so that certainly is an option.
