No information can guarantee that an investment will make you money

13F filings are filed if an institutional investment manager that uses the U.S. mail (or other means or instrumentality of interstate commerce) in the course of its business, and exercises investment discretion over $100 million or more in Section 13(f)securities (explained below) must report its holdings quarterly on Form 13F with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Now lets start with the disadvantages of the 13F. The first thing to note is that these filings can be up to 45 days old, which is a little late for an advantage. The second thing is these filings only tell you what they bought. Not how they are using them. They could have bought the shares to use them to short sell the stock. The third thing is they also file 13F’s to sell their stock. Any information the SEC gives out for free is going to be one of two things: difficult to understand or of no use to you.
The only advantage of 13F filings is that the more you know the better.
Now a Walk Street Broker knows the way to tell what stocks some of the hedges or institutions are buying or selling. All the big institutions have as a crucial part of their investment strategy a group that they rely on for sound investment advice-stock analyst. They have in-depth knowledge of all accounts they are responsible for and every week they turn in a report that list each of those stocks with a rating of strong buy, buy, hold, or sell. And these reports are released in the news sections. 90% of the time this is what they are buying or selling or short selling. You also have to remember that just because they are buying doesnt mean others arent selling it. Plus when they buy a stock its going to be held for more than week.
