These are the deals we could confirm from free public sources, last checked Nov 10, 2026, so small deals may be missing. New deals are added from our daily coverage. "Undisclosed" also covers deals where we couldn't confirm a price. Stated value adds up announced purchase prices only and leaves out undisclosed and reported prices and sales. Dates are when a deal closed, or when it was announced if it hasn't closed yet.
