Verified historical figure unavailable.

Historical study and paper record

The historical study uses scheduled reconstitutions. The paper record follows the fixed 18 June 2026 target as implemented from 23 June. They share a selection family but have different implementation paths, so their returns should be read separately. The paper series contains recorded broker-simulation values, and broker-reported historical daily values. Missing periods and source distinctions remain documented.

Execution and open questions

The whole-book execution study tests completion and cost under published scheduling assumptions. Current borrow, realised fills, financing and operating continuity remain necessary for a live decision.
