Several factors including global economic trends, market developments, and company performance could play a role in such movements.

Market developments could also indicate changing fortunes for certain industries, prompting a re-allocation of investment. For instance, the drop in Amazon.com Inc share value might be attributed to the US government's recent anti-trust proceedings against the e-commerce giant, or it could be a reflection of the slowdown in the post-pandemic economy.
The performance of the company is also a significant factor that could influence an investment firm's decision to increase or decrease its stake in a particular holding. Companies with a stable revenue stream, expansion in new markets, or innovative and forward-thinking business models are likely to attract investment firms like Bell Asset Management Limited.
