A decrease in SP is a loss of power.

An increase in SP at a rate slower than another category is a loss of power.

I am not sure why you are trying to decipher it any other way.

Well wording is very important here. When someone loses something that means they still wanted ownership and someone else now has it.

When someone gives up owner ship that means they no long wanted it.

The latter is important to take into account because it could be a early sign of a exodus.

Hop this clears up my statement. Though it was pretty clear to begin with.

I thought it was very clear

Actually, there are other definitions of lose.

1. to give up; forfeit the possession of:
   ex: to lose a fortune at the gaming table.

So, if you want to be that way, no your use of the word was not clear since there are 9 definitions.

The latter is important to take into account because it could be a early sign of a exodus.

You are right it could be...or it could be a sign of funding other projects...or taking profits....or diversifying into other assets....
