What this is not
A broker is a member firm that executes orders, not an investor. A firm's net position over a window may belong to one client or to two hundred, and the floorsheet does not say which. Nothing on this page is a forecast, a target, or a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security; it is a record of what traded, at what price, through whom. Figures are captured at build time from published exchange data and may be revised. Punji does not place orders.
