Changes are computed for the 64 investors with holdings in both Q4 2014 and the quarter before, stock positions only (no options). Share changes are priced at each quarter's reported value per share. A first appearance is a security no tracked investor held last quarter — a spin-off or a new listing — so holding it may not mean anyone bought it.
