R20 13F-correction continuity — MSFT distribution-risk observation SURVIVES R19 correction unchanged

  • Type: refresh (subtype: 13f-correction-annotation)
  • event_id: 2026-05-20-war-ends-playbook-r20-13f-correction-continuity
  • Source: R19 blast-radius audit (published/research-notes/2026-05-20-r19-q1-13f-blast-radius-audit.md); R20 follow-through from workflow/RUNS.md 2026-05-20 r20-corrected-13f-followthrough.
  • Carries unchanged from R18: MSFT contested cluster — Ackman NEW +15.26% (his largest single position) vs Tepper 84% trim (3.49% → 0.56%) + Coatue 50% trim (6.26% → 3.16%). All three managers had clean equity-only Q1 13Fs per blast-radius audit; no puts/calls behind these moves. The R18 framing — "one large NEW initiation vs two large managers chopping at the same prices, late-cycle distribution tell" — is unaffected by the importer bug.
  • Add as 4th distribution-risk watch (alongside the three R15 cybersec-leg invalidation gates already in this perspective): Tepper or Coatue Q2 13F shows MSFT trim continuing past 50% of remaining position; MSFT technical breakdown below SMA50 + RSI < 40; earnings disappointment. The MSFT positioning split sits within the broader "concentrated mega-cap conviction is splitting" frame this perspective tracks.
  • Mag7 net read holds: AMZN consensus add (Ackman → 17.39%, Klarman → 12.70%, Tepper → 15.16%) with Druck dissent — clean equity all around. GOOGL consensus add (Buffett INCREASED → 5.93%, Klarman, Loeb) with Druck 100% exit — clean equity all around. The "Mag7 buying outpaces selling" surface holds; the MSFT split is the texture worth flagging.
  • Druck nuance: Druck has 5 calls (AMZN $42M underlying + 4 broad-index ETFs $397M). The R18 "Druck AMZN 65% trim" framing remains directionally right (equity DID get trimmed) but he added an AMZN call on top — net effective AMZN direction is still long, just less concentrated in cash equity. Druck's broad-beta ETF calls (SPY + RSP + IWM + EWZ-Brazil = $398M underlying) suggest he's adding diversified beta + EM leverage while trimming concentrated tech equity — a less-defensive book than R18 implied.
  • Posture: UNCHANGED — risk-on-tech-rotation regime continues; MSFT distribution-risk watch added; cybersec leg invalidation gates unchanged.
