Smart Money Signals — ACXP

Based on 19 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

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

Below peak — only 58% of 3.0Y high

58% of all-time peak
Only 19 funds hold ACXP today versus a peak of 33 funds at 2025 Q2 — just 58% 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 — 42% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
14 fewer hedge funds hold ACXP compared to a year ago (-42% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 36% buying

5 buying9 selling
Last quarter: 9 funds sold vs only 5 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-6 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 7 → 8 → 2. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔒

53% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 53% conviction (2yr+) ■ 16% medium ■ 32% new
10 out of 19 hedge funds have held ACXP for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -32%, value -68%

Value
-68%
Shares
-32%
Last quarter: funds added -32% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -68%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~2 new funds/quarter

11 → 3 → 7 → 8 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 7 → 8 → 2. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 53% veterans vs 37% newcomers

■ 53% veterans ■ 11% 1-2yr ■ 37% new
Entry-cohort mix of 19 holders: 10 (53%) are 2+ year veterans, 2 entered 1–2 years ago, and 7 (37%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 42% AUM from top-100 funds

42% from top-100 AUM funds
7 of 19 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 42% of total institutional value in ACXP. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
2.4
out of 10
Low Exit Risk

Methodology note: these Smart Money cards use consecutive 13F disclosure snapshots, not trade-by-trade execution data. "Buying", "selling", "new holders", and "trimmed" refer to quarter-over-quarter changes in reported holders, aggregate shares, or disclosed position values between filings. They are useful for ownership regime analysis and crowding, but they do not imply exact trade timing on the filing date.
