Breadth and Fragility Columns
A cross-Section comparison of small-cap rotation evidence, participation, concentration and realized downside risk.
- Rotation: structural readiness score; Withheld means at least one pre-registered calculation-evidence gate failed.
- Positive 21D: share of constituents with a positive 21-session return.
- Leader concentration: top-three absolute return contributions divided by total absolute contributions; higher is more concentrated.
- 63D volatility: annualized realized volatility using 252 trading sessions.
- 63D drawdown: worst peak-to-trough decline in the window; more negative is worse.
- Use the page to distinguish healthy diffusion from a headline index move driven by a narrow group of leaders.
The page is a current market-structure monitor. It does not establish that smaller stocks will outperform over a future horizon.
