Smart Money Signals — AC

Based on 5 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q3 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed this position than added to it. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams deciding to exit.
🔻

Below peak — only 15% of 3.0Y high

15% of all-time peak
Only 5 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 33 funds at 2023 Q1 — just 15% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉

Outflows — 80% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
20 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-80% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 9% buying

2 buying21 selling
Last quarter: 21 funds sold vs only 2 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~1 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 2 → 0 → 2 → 1. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

3 → 2 → 0 → 2 → 1 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 0 → 2 → 1. A growing number of institutions are discovering this stock each quarter. The idea is still spreading — there is room for more buyers to enter.
🏛️

80% veterans 20% 1-2yr 0% new
