Changes are computed for the 70 investors with holdings in both Q1 2016 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.
