Current Estimated Value is reported share quantity from the latest 13F times our most recent split-adjusted U.S. session close. Gain/loss Since Filing is that estimate minus the reported 13F dollar value; Estimated Portfolio Performance is that difference as a percent of the reported value. Green means the estimate is above the filing value; red means below (not purchase cost). If many filers share the same implied filing price per share, the performance % may match across rows.
