Frequently asked questions about DG activity

    "Buy" means an investor increased their reported position in DG compared to the prior reporting period. This reflects growing exposure to DOLLAR GENERAL CORP (DG) rather than necessarily a brand-new position (though new positions also appear as buys when prior quantity was zero).

  • Is institutional interest in DG increasing?
