Smart Money Signals — BUFC

Based on 20 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 BUFC 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.
📊

High ownership — 91% of 2.8Y peak

91% of all-time peak
20 funds currently hold this stock — 91% of the 2.8-year high of 22 funds (reached 2025 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶

Steady growth — +18% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+18% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 44% buying

8 buying10 selling
Last quarter: 10 funds reduced or exited vs 8 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.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~4 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 1 → 6 → 1 → 4. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌

Mixed — 25% long-term, 30% new

■ 25% conviction (2yr+) ■ 45% medium ■ 30% new
Of the 20 current holders: 5 (25%) held >2 years, 9 held 1–2 years, and 6 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

6 → 1 → 6 → 1 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 1 → 6 → 1 → 4. BUFC is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 5% veterans, 45% new entrants

■ 5% veterans ■ 50% 1-2yr ■ 45% new
Of 20 current holders: 1 (5%) held 2+ years, 10 held 1–2 years, 9 (45%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
🏆

97% from top-100 AUM funds

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.
