Shares reported each quarter by the largest current holders. Green = added vs the prior filing, red = trimmed, grey = roughly held; a dash is a quarter with no 13F on file (a gap is skipped, not read as an exit). 13F is filed up to 45 days after quarter-end. Up to 40 quarters (10 years) available — use the selector above.

Institutional footprint by quarter

Holder count only — too few computable %-of-shares-outstanding quarters for a % pane. Line breaks are quarters with no 13F record, never interpolated.
