Smart Money Signals — BAER

Based on 58 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 BAER positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊

High ownership — 83% of 3.0Y peak

83% of all-time peak
58 funds currently hold this stock — 83% of the 3.0-year high of 70 funds (reached 2026 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶

Steady growth — +9% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+5 new funds entered over the past year (+9% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 39% buying

25 buying39 selling
Last quarter: 39 funds sold vs only 25 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-17 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 10 → 9 → 27 → 10. 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.
📌

Mixed — 29% long-term, 38% new

■ 29% conviction (2yr+) ■ 33% medium ■ 38% new
Of the 58 current holders: 17 (29%) held >2 years, 19 held 1–2 years, and 22 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.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~10 new funds/quarter

8 → 10 → 9 → 27 → 10 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 10 → 9 → 27 → 10. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 24% veterans, 43% new entrants

■ 24% veterans ■ 33% 1-2yr ■ 43% new
Of 58 current holders: 14 (24%) held 2+ years, 19 held 1–2 years, 25 (43%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 8% AUM from top-100

8% from top-100 AUM funds

4.1
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.1/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.

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.
