What the ownership overlap reveals

Across 16 tracked superinvestors, 5 hold both META and MA (31% of the combined holder base), led by Terry Smith (6.5% META · 9.8% MA). META appears in 15 tracked portfolios; MA in 6, so META is the more widely held of the two among tracked managers.

META is a Technology holding while MA sits in Financials — the overlap (or lack of it) partly tracks how each manager allocates across sectors. On the latest 13F cohort, META’s ConvictionScore reads +3 (slight accumulation) against MA’s 0 (mixed); META shows the stronger net-accumulation reading of the pair.

Among the 5 managers holding both, 1 size META larger and 4 size MA larger — a lean toward MA. A name held with higher weight by managers who own both is one the shared cohort is more concentrated in.
