Capital Rotation reports where institutional capital disclosed rotating, as of the latest public SEC 13F filings. It is data, not investment advice, a recommendation, or a prediction. Filings lag about 45 days and cover long US equity positions only. Past disclosed flows do not indicate future prices. Do your own research; consult a licensed advisor.

Each bar counts tracked filers with a position in that quarter's filings, so the newest bar excludes filers still on an earlier quarter. Arkolith's tracked universe has grown over this window; part of any long-run rise is coverage, not new buyers.
