Smart Money Signals — BAC

Based on 3628 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added BAC 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
3,628 hedge funds hold BAC 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 — +10% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+343 new funds entered over the past year (+10% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 55% buying

1889 buying1567 selling
Last quarter: 1,889 funds bought or added vs 1,567 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.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+122 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new BAC position: 235 → 424 → 221 → 343. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

71% of holders stayed for 2+ years

71% conviction (2yr+) 15% medium 14% new
2,589 out of 3,628 hedge funds have held BAC 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.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~343 new funds/quarter

294 → 235 → 424 → 221 → 343 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 235 → 424 → 221 → 343. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 73% veterans vs 16% newcomers

73% veterans 11% 1-2yr 16% new
Entry-cohort mix of 3,762 holders: 2,748 (73%) are 2+ year veterans, 428 entered 1–2 years ago, and 586 (16%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 68% AUM from top-100 funds

68% from top-100 AUM funds
75 of 3610 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 68% of total institutional value in BAC. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.4
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.4/10 — 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.
