The Point 72 Tracker: what it follows, what a 13F can and can't tell you about Point72 Asset Management, and how following works

I'm Chris, co-founder of Autopilot. The Point 72 Tracker follows Point72 Asset Management's quarterly 13F filing. When the filing posts, up to 45 days after quarter end, the Portfolio updates and your account follows it. Steve Cohen has nothing to do with it. Here's what you get when you follow a firm that's really dozens of teams trading under one name, and what you don't.

One thing first, because we're an SEC-registered investment adviser and I have to say it. Autopilot is the app. The actual investment advice comes from Autopilot Advisers, LLC. If you want the full legal version of anything in here, it's on our legal page.

1) Who Cohen is and what the tracker actually follows

Cohen doesn't run this. We read what Point72 files and follow it after the filing becomes public. A 13F can be filed any time after quarter end, but the deadline is 45 days.

Steve Cohen is one of the most famous traders alive, and these days also the owner of the New York Mets. His firm, Point72 Asset Management, describes itself as a blend of deep fundamental research and quantitative analysis, and it runs as a multi-manager platform: many portfolio managers, each with their own team and their own book, all inside one firm with one risk department watching. Since we call out everybody, the history matters too. His previous firm, SAC Capital, pleaded guilty to insider trading charges in 2013 and stopped managing outside money. Cohen himself wasn't charged. He ran his own money as Point72 and reopened the firm to outside investors in 2018. Like every institutional investment manager that meets the SEC's $100 million threshold for Section 13(f) securities, Point72 files a Form 13F within 45 days after each quarter end. The filer of record is Point72 Asset Management, L.P..

The Point 72 Tracker is a Portfolio that Autopilot Advisers built and runs from that filing. It launched on Autopilot on November 22, 2023. Point72 isn't paid by it, doesn't know about it, and hasn't endorsed anything.

2) What a 13F shows for Point72, and what it hides

A multi-manager firm's 13F is a snapshot of many independent decisions on one day. One team is long a stock because they like the company. Another team is long the same stock as a hedge against something else. A third sold it last week. The filing adds all of that up into one number per stock and shows you the total as of quarter end. It looks like a portfolio. It's really a census.

Turnover is the second thing. Multi-manager platforms trade a lot, and a position that shows up as of March 31 may be gone, doubled, or flipped by the time the filing posts in mid-May. That's what 45 days does to a fast book.

The rest is what every 13F hides, which I wrote up in What's a 13F, and can you actually see what Warren Buffett bought last quarter?. No shorts, and a multi-manager firm runs a lot of them. No timing, no prices, no cash. 13Fs don't have a purchase date. They only have the ending date.

3) How the tracker turns the filing into a Portfolio

What I can say without checking: it's a subset, because the filing is far too large for any brokerage account, and the selection rule is what you're actually following. The Portfolio only changes when a new filing posts.

4) How it runs in your account

You connect the brokerage you already have, pick the Point 72 Tracker, and set how much follows it. Then you give Autopilot Advisers limited authority to send orders to that account. When the Portfolio changes, we send them and your broker fills them. The money stays put.

You're never trading at the same time as Point72. You're trading after a filing that came out weeks after dozens of teams did whatever they did.

5) What to check on the fact sheet before you follow it

The Point 72 fact sheet shows what real client accounts following it did from November 22, 2023, gross and net, with drawdown, volatility, a risk band, and a date on every figure. It's a live composite of follower accounts, not Point72's return and not a backtest.

Because this Portfolio is a rule applied to a big filing, the sheet is the description of what it is. I wrote how to read one in How to read a Portfolio's track record before you follow it.

6) The limits, plainly

The filing starts you behind a firm built for speed. Sometimes by days. Sometimes by months. You're getting the long side of a census, with the shorts and the team-level reasoning invisible. Position sizes aren't theirs. If what you want is Cohen's trading, that has never been for sale to the public and a filing won't give it to you. If you want to follow the disclosed long side of one of the biggest multi-manager books there is, with the rule we apply printed on a fact sheet, that's what this is.

Frequently asked questions

Point72 13F holdings

Point72 Asset Management's quarterly 13F is public on the SEC's EDGAR site, filed within 45 days after each quarter end, and it lists the firm's long US positions as of quarter end across all its teams together. It leaves out shorts, timing, and anything sold inside the quarter. I don't reprint holdings here because this page doesn't change. Autopilot's Point 72 Tracker follows a subset of the filing after it posts.

Steve Cohen portfolio tracker

Autopilot's Point 72 Tracker follows Point72 Asset Management's quarterly 13F filings after they post, in your own brokerage account. Cohen and Point72 don't run it and have no relationship with Autopilot. It launched November 22, 2023 and has a public fact sheet showing what follower accounts did, gross and net, with the 45-day delay disclosed as a risk.

How to follow Point72's trades

You can't follow the trades; nobody outside the firm sees them. You can follow the quarterly 13F, which shows Point72's long US positions as of quarter end after the filing becomes public. Autopilot's Point 72 Tracker does that in the brokerage account you already have: connect it, pick the Portfolio, and when a new filing posts and the Portfolio updates, we send the orders and your broker fills them.

TLDR

Point72 files a 13F within 45 days of quarter end that adds up dozens of teams into one list. The Point 72 Tracker follows a slice of it, in your own brokerage, with the money staying put. Cohen isn't involved. Read the fact sheet to know what the slice is. If it fits: Choose a Portfolio and connect your brokerage. Then give Autopilot Advisers limited authority to send orders to that account. When the Portfolio changes, we send them and your broker fills them. Depending on your plan and brokerage, you may need to confirm first. The money stays put.
