Smart Money Signals — AVUS

Based on 550 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 11 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 11 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added AVUS 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
550 hedge funds hold AVUS 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.
🚀

Fast accumulation — +26% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+114 new funds entered over the past year (+26% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 66% buying

316 buying162 selling
Last quarter: 316 funds were net buyers (67 opened a brand new position + 249 added to an existing one). Only 162 were sellers (138 trimmed + 24 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~67 new funds per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 52 → 46 → 67 → 67. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

49% of holders stayed for 2+ years

49% conviction (2yr+) 27% medium 23% new
271 out of 550 hedge funds have held AVUS 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 -26%, value -80%

Value
-79%
Shares
-26%
Last quarter: funds added -26% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -80%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

49 → 52 → 46 → 67 → 67 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 52 → 46 → 67 → 67. A growing number of institutions are discovering AVUS each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 49% veterans vs 33% newcomers

49% veterans 19% 1-2yr 33% new
Entry-cohort mix of 550 holders: 268 (49%) are 2+ year veterans, 103 entered 1–2 years ago, and 179 (33%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 17% AUM from top-100

17% from top-100 AUM funds
21 of 549 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 17% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
3.9
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.9/10 — 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.
