Combining investing and programming, I built a tool to parse and process sec stock holdings data

I posted this to r/algotrading and figured the people here might like it too. The program collects 13f filings and puts them into a .csv format for ease of readability. A 13f filing is just a list of the long positions an investment company holds, it is updated on a quarterly basis. This way you can compare the long stock holdings of different companies on a quarter to quarter basis.

This is still a work in progress so just let me know if you run into issues or problems. I have run instructions on the github page or you can just maven package the files into a jar and run the jar-with-dependencies.

Everything is open source and documented so you can have a look at the code yourself if you would like.

Also, I know this works on linux/mac, I'm not so sure about windows.
