Based on 414 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 BRKR 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

414 hedge funds hold BRKR 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 — +12% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+43 new funds entered over the past year (+12% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.

🟡

Slight buying edge — 59% buying

246 buying172 selling

Last quarter: 246 funds bought or added vs 172 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 (+58 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening a new BRKR position: 63 → 85 → 61 → 119. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.

🔒

54% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 54% conviction (2yr+) ■ 23% medium ■ 23% new

223 out of 414 hedge funds have held BRKR 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.

💰

Value +80% but shares only +13% — price-driven

Value

+80%

+12%

Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +80%, but actual share count only changed +13%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.

📈

Growing discovery — still being found

57 → 63 → 85 → 61 → 119 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 63 → 85 → 61 → 119. A growing number of institutions are discovering BRKR each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.

🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 61% veterans vs 25% newcomers

■ 61% veterans ■ 14% 1-2yr ■ 25% new

Entry-cohort mix of 428 holders: 263 (61%) are 2+ year veterans, 58 entered 1–2 years ago, and 107 (25%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

🏆

Elite ownership — 46% AUM from top-100 funds

46% from top-100 AUM funds

58 of 412 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 46% of total institutional value in BRKR. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

3.7

out of 10

Low Exit Risk

Exit risk score 3.7/10 — 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.
