The complex wave-form of the 25-2/3 day periodicity of the solar oblateness is exhibited. The statistical significance and strength of the fluctuation is examined. Using several lines of evidence the periodic fluctuation is shown to be a fluctuation in shape, not brightness. The fluctuation does not correlate with indicators of sunspots, faculae, prominences or magnetic fields. The detailed results of the analysis of the correlation with faculae are given. A possible explanation for the absence of the negative-correlated fluctuation delayed by 1/2 the period is examined.
