Clone returns replicate each manager's 13F at reported weights with the real disclosure lag; the S&P 500 figure beneath is measured over that manager's identical window (SPY total return). Because each manager has a different amount of 13F history, the two columns cover different spans — compare each manager against their own benchmark row, not across columns. Methodology.
