Who trades, and who waits
How much of a fund's book changes in a single quarter?
Some funds replaced well over half their positions in three months. Others changed almost nothing. The calmest names in our data turned over under 5% of their book in a quarter, which over a year is a rounding error, and they include some of the most successful investors alive.

Live from our database. 25 rows shown.
- For each fund present in BOTH quarters, the number of positions opened plus closed, as a share of all positions touched.
- Funds appearing in only one quarter are excluded: every position would count as 'new' and the fund would show 100% turnover having done nothing at all.
- This counts POSITIONS, not money. A fund can rotate a hundred tiny holdings and leave 95% of its capital untouched.
- Any fund still showing 100% here has genuinely replaced its entire disclosed book, which is unusual enough that it may reflect a filing change rather than trading. Treat it as a question, not a finding.
