Smart Money Signals — AVT

Based on 439 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 AVT 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.
🏔️

At the ownership peak (100% of max)

100% of all-time peak
439 hedge funds hold AVT right now — the highest count in 3.0 years. When ownership is this concentrated, any bad news can trigger a chain reaction: one big fund sells, others follow. This is a classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
📶

Steady growth — +17% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+63 new funds entered over the past year (+17% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 61% buying

271 buying173 selling
Last quarter: 271 funds were net buyers (94 opened a brand new position + 177 added to an existing one). Only 173 were sellers (124 trimmed + 49 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+32 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Value
+19%
Shares
0%
Last quarter: total value of institutional AVT holdings rose +20% even though funds reduced share count by 0%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.
📈

58 → 65 → 65 → 62 → 94 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 65 → 65 → 62 → 94. A growing number of institutions are discovering AVT each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 67% veterans vs 23% newcomers

Entry-cohort mix of 442 holders: 296 (67%) are 2+ year veterans, 45 entered 1–2 years ago, and 101 (23%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

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.
