Ligand Pharmaceuticals Incorporated Glucagon Contingent Value (US: $LGNXZ) institutional ownership structure shows current positions in the company by institutions and funds, as well as latest changes in position size. Major shareholders can include individual investors, mutual funds, hedge funds, or institutions. The Schedule 13D indicates that the investor holds (or held) more than 5% of the company and intends (or intended) to actively pursue a change in business strategy. Schedule 13G indicates a passive investment of over 5%.

Institutional Put/Call Ratio

In addition to reporting standard equity and debt issues, institutions with more than 100MM assets under management must also disclose their put and call option holdings. Since put options generally indicate negative sentiment, and call options indicate positive sentiment, we can get a sense of the overall institutional sentiment by plotting the ratio of puts to calls. The chart to the right plots the historical put/call ratio for this instrument.

Using Put/Call Ratio as an indicator of investor sentiment overcomes one of the key deficiencies of using total institutional ownership, which is that a significant amount of assets under management are invested passively to track indices. Passively-managed funds do not typically buy options, so the put/call ratio indicator more closely tracks the sentiment of actively-managed funds.

13D/G Filings

We present 13D/G filings separately from the 13F filings because of the different treatement by the SEC. 13D/G filings can be filed by groups of investors (with one leading), whereas 13F filings cannot. This results in situations where an investor may file a 13D/G reporting one value for the total shares (representing all the shares owned by the investor group), but then file a 13F reporting a different value for the total shares (representing strictly their own ownership). This means that share ownership of 13D/G filings and 13F filings are oftentimes not directly comparable, so we present them separately.
