Fiscal year and quarterly date information is now visible in the search results
Annual and quarterly filings now contain the corresponding fiscal year and quarter information in the search results:
Exclude a specific company from your search results
Searches can be filtered to exclude specific companies from your search results by adding an exclamation mark ‘!’ preceding the company ticker (ex. !AAPL). For example, Apple has partnered with large mobile carriers such as AT&T and Sprint to sell its iPhones. By running a search for the term iphone sales and excluding the company Apple from our search results, we can focus the search on what Apple partners are saying about iPhone sales rather than what the company Apple is saying about iphone sales:
