The album earned 120,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. during the week ending November 6, marking an 18% decline from the previous week. Swift becomes only the second artist in 2025 to spend the first five weeks atop the chart, following Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem, which held No. 1 for eight of its first twelve weeks.
Streaming equivalent albums (SEA) accounted for 98,000 units (down 18%), translating to 129.07 million on-demand official streams, securing Swift’s fifth week at No. 1 on the Top Streaming Albums chart.

Tyler, The Creator’s CHROMAKOPIA surged from No. 117 to No. 5 following its one-year anniversary reissue, earning 51,000 equivalent units, a 390% increase.
