The trend
Q3 2023 to Q2 2026, each fund in the quarter its filing covers, so the newest quarter can trail the figures above while filings come in.
Each fund is placed in the quarter of its own filing. Above the lower line, funds that opened or added more than 1% of their shares; below, funds that trimmed more than 1% or sold out.
The funds
Every tracked fund with a position in its latest filing, largest weight first, and those that sold out. Bars show shares at each quarter end: green when it added, red when it sold.

What is a 13F and what does it miss?
Managers with $100 million or more in US equities report their long positions on Form 13F each quarter, up to 45 days after it ends. The filing omits short positions, bonds, cash and most foreign listings, and a position may have changed since the quarter ended. Options are excluded here.
From the managers’ Form 13F-HR filings with the SEC, amendments applied, share counts adjusted for splits; GOOG and GOOGL are one position. A record of filings, not a recommendation.
