Columns and types
These columns come from the same versioned logical catalog used by the query validator and engine. They describe the fields you can query. Some historical rows have missing values; fields absent from older shards can return typed NULL.

Coverage and timing
Which company traded under a ticker on a date; follows a company across renames.
One row per span a security traded under one ticker: `from_date` and `to_date` are its first and last sessions, inclusive, and `to_date` is NULL while it still trades. Built from Polygon's point-in-time listing. Rows sharing a `security_id` are one security across renames. `canonical_symbol` is the ticker a security's whole history is known by: its current ticker if it still trades, otherwise its last ticker, or `__SECURITY__<security_id>` when a later company took that ticker. Filter on it to follow one company across renames. Price, fundamentals and disclosure tables are keyed by the ticker as traded on each date. Join them here on `ticker` AND `date BETWEEN from_date AND COALESCE(to_date, DATE '9999-12-31')`; joining on `ticker` alone matches every company that ever used the symbol. A merger into a new registrant is a new security, not a rename: Paramount Global (`PARA` to 2025-08-06) and Paramount Skydance (`PSKY` from 2025-08-07) have different `security_id`s, because holders did not all receive shares.
