Gaining weight · outperforming

Both dimensions increased over 12 months.

Gaining weight · underperforming

Market-weight gains coexist with negative relative returns.

Losing weight · outperforming

Relative return is positive while market weight fell.

Losing weight · underperforming

Both dimensions declined over 12 months.

The axes use raw changes and a zero boundary, not an opinion or a standardised score. A sector may gain market weight without outperforming the benchmark because allocation and relative return are different dimensions. No quadrant is called a future winner or an investment signal.
