What copying E. Scott Rigell would have returned

$10,000 invested on 2015-06-16, buying and selling the same stocks 3 days after each filing became public, ended at $27,716 on 2026-11-09. The same money in the S&P 500 (SPY) ended at $38,411.

That headline is diluted by cash: on average only 85% of the money was invested, because the portfolio holds a few small positions. On the 2,865 days it did hold stocks, the copied holdings returned +6.7% a year against +12.4% for the S&P 500 over the same days: 5.7 percentage points behind the index.
