Smart Money Signals — AESI

Based on 239 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added AESI than sold it. That's a consistent pattern of professional buying — not a one-time trade. When institutions keep buying quarter after quarter, it usually means they see a multi-year opportunity, not just a short-term momentum flip.
📊

High ownership — 93% of 3.0Y peak

93% of all-time peak
239 funds currently hold this stock — 93% of the 3.0-year high of 256 funds (reached 2025 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 7% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
17 fewer hedge funds hold AESI compared to a year ago (-7% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 55% buying

131 buying108 selling
Last quarter: 131 funds bought or added vs 108 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~46 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 48 → 28 → 44 → 46. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌

Mixed — 33% long-term, 27% new

33% conviction (2yr+) 40% medium 27% new
Of the 239 current holders: 80 (33%) held >2 years, 95 held 1–2 years, and 64 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💰

Value +42% but shares only +3% — price-driven

Value
+41%
Shares
+2%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +42%, but actual share count only changed +3%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

74 → 48 → 28 → 44 → 46 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 48 → 28 → 44 → 46. A growing number of institutions are discovering AESI each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 32% veterans, 38% new entrants

32% veterans 30% 1-2yr 38% new
Of 248 current holders: 80 (32%) held 2+ years, 74 held 1–2 years, 94 (38%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

Strong quality — 31% AUM from major funds

31% from top-100 AUM funds
42 of 239 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 31% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
3.3
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.3/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.

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.
