Sold out: held the month before, gone now. Matured: a bond or deposit whose repayment date fell between the two portfolios, so it was repaid rather than sold (one sold in its last days reads the same). What changed in the glossary | Change in weight. The holding's weight this month less its weight the month before, in percentage points; a price move alone changes it.
