Smart Money Signals — BBAR

Based on 65 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their BBAR 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 — 82% of 3.0Y peak

82% of all-time peak
65 funds currently hold this stock — 82% of the 3.0-year high of 79 funds (reached 2025 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 18% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
14 fewer hedge funds hold BBAR compared to a year ago (-18% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 46% buying

31 buying36 selling
Last quarter: 36 funds reduced or exited vs 31 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-10 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 13 → 22 → 16 → 6. 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 — 32% long-term, 23% new

■ 32% conviction (2yr+) ■ 45% medium ■ 23% new
Of the 65 current holders: 21 (32%) held >2 years, 29 held 1–2 years, and 15 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.
📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

25 → 13 → 22 → 16 → 6 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 13 → 22 → 16 → 6. BBAR is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 46% veterans vs 29% newcomers

■ 46% veterans ■ 26% 1-2yr ■ 29% new
Entry-cohort mix of 70 holders: 32 (46%) are 2+ year veterans, 18 entered 1–2 years ago, and 20 (29%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
✅

23% from top-100 AUM funds
17 of 64 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 23% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
2.9
out of 10

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.
