The big figure is the estimated current portfolio; volume traded is how much was bought/sold in the window — different things. Estimated from disclosed trades only (net buys − sales).
TRADING ACTIVITY
Buys ▲ above the line · sells ▼ below · every bar labeled
⤓ axis clipped so the outlier doesn't flatten every other bar — slashed bars exceed the scale; their labels show the true amount
Estimated holdings are estimated from disclosed trades alone (net buys minus sales).
Everything is a range or estimate. The STOCK Act requires only broad dollar brackets (e.g. "$1,001–$15,000"), never exact amounts, share counts, or prices. Figures shown are midpoints.
"Filed after" is the gap between the trade and its disclosure. Over 45 days (⚠) is outside the STOCK Act's filing window.
