Excess return over the equal-weight average of all eight, over 126 sessions (about six months) and 21 (about one month). Leading is ahead and still pulling away, weakening ahead but giving it back, improving behind but closing, lagging behind and falling further. The two mixed quadrants are the only rows worth a second look — leading and lagging are the same news twice. Nothing here has been graded against forward returns: a quadrant describes two past windows and makes no claim about the next one.
