the Blossom 100

Everything here comes from real brokerage accounts that Blossom members have linked: Wealthsimple, Questrade, Robinhood, Schwab, Webull and many more. It's what people actually bought, sold and held, not survey answers or self-reported picks. Individual accounts are never shown; every number is an aggregate across many members. Dollar figures are in US dollars, converted at the current exchange rate, except in the Canada view, which shows Canadian dollars.

Each index starts at the first month-end where we have enough members' holdings to fill all 100 spots (with one exception, below):

• Blossom 100 (All and Canada): December 29, 2023.
• Blossom 100 (US): December 31, 2024. US members joined Blossom later.
• Millionaire 100: January 1, 2026 (All), March 31, 2026 (US) and April 30, 2026 (Canada). The All version starts at the beginning of the year so year-to-date is a full comparison; in January it held the 46 stocks that enough millionaires owned, and it reached 100 names from February on.

In early February 2026, the connection that syncs brokerage data into Blossom had a gap. From roughly February 5 to 17, almost no trades came through. This barely affects the indexes. Their daily performance comes from public market prices, not from Blossom's trade data. Blossom data only decides which stocks are in the index and how much each weighs, and those weights use each member's latest position over the previous 12 months. So a two-week hole doesn't change who's in or out.

Two things move it: the market, and new members linking their accounts. Most of the long-term climb comes from more investors joining Blossom and linking their accounts. Week-to-week moves are mostly the market; the drop in the first week of November is the selloff, not people leaving.

A handful of very large, very active accounts can trade more in a week than thousands of regular members combined. If we let them in, "what investors bought" would really mean "what three people bought." So we use a whale filter: for the trading sections (weekly volume, bought, sold, biggest shifts, themes and ETF types), we leave out the top 1% of accounts by trading volume. Holdings-based numbers (net worth and index weights) include everyone, because a large holder genuinely does own that stock.

Brokerage data is messy, so several layers clean it before it reaches this page:

• Impossible trades are removed. Some broker feeds occasionally report a trade at a wildly wrong size; the main cause we've found is a price × quantity error in the upstream data. If an account "buys" more than $100K of something and more than 20× what it ever held (or the mirror image on the sell side), that account's activity in that stock is dropped.
• Known bad data points are corrected before they reach this page.
• Currency moves aren't counted as investing. Funds like DLR / DLR.U (used for Norbert's gambit, a way to convert CAD to USD cheaply) are left out of the trading lists.
• Mutual funds and data glitches over $20M are excluded from the stock indexes and the millionaire count.

At the end of each month, we add up how many dollars Blossom members hold in every stock and take the top 100. Each stock's weight is its share of those dollars, so the index looks like one giant portfolio of everyone's stock picks. A few rules:

• ETFs and mutual funds are excluded. This is about the individual stocks and crypto people choose. Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP and Solana currently make the cut; stablecoins (like USDC) are left out because they're a cash stand-in.
• A stock needs at least 3 members holding it, so no single person's position drives a weight.
• Canadian depositary receipts (CDRs, e.g. NVIDIA's Cboe Canada listing) count toward the underlying US stock.
• Returns are daily price returns in each holding's own currency (crypto in US dollars), without dividends, compared with the S&P 500 price index.

The same recipe, using only members whose linked holdings were worth $1M or more at that month-end. We pick the millionaires fresh each month instead of using today's millionaires, so the index can't "peek ahead" at people whose picks later did well. It shows what Blossom's largest investors own. The Canada and US versions use members living in each country; there aren't enough UK members yet for a UK version.

Mostly by taking more risk. Blossom members lean heavily into tech and AI names, so the index has a beta around 1.65: on a typical day it moves about 1.65× as much as the market, up and down. That helped in a rising 2026 but means bigger drops in selloffs. The scorecard shows both sides, including max drawdown and the worst day.

Themes cover individual stocks only, like "AI chips & semis" or "Canadian blue chips". Each stock is assigned by hand from a list of the most-traded names; ETFs and crypto coins are left out so every theme measures the same thing: which companies people are picking.

ETF types group every ETF by what it invests in (S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, asset allocation, dividend, fixed income & cash and so on), using the same ETF classification behind Blossom's ETF research.

Both use the same score: net dollars traded that week ÷ what members held in that group at the start of the week, so small and large groups can be compared.

They show only members who live in that country. Trading is split exactly. Net worth is split by how each fund's and stock's holders are distributed between countries, so it's a close estimate rather than an exact figure. A UK view is coming once there are enough UK members.

Weekly, after each new data export. Index weights reset at each month-end.

No. This page shows what the Blossom community is doing, not what you should do. Past performance, including the indexes' performance, doesn't predict future returns.
