Smart Money Signals — CNR

Based on 355 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 CNR 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 — 94% of 3.0Y peak

94% of all-time peak
355 funds currently hold this stock — 94% of the 3.0-year high of 378 funds (reached 2026 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶

Steady growth — +16% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+49 new funds entered over the past year (+16% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 52% buying

213 buying193 selling
Last quarter: 213 funds bought or added vs 193 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.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-27 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 65 → 71 → 85 → 58. 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.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 32% entered in last year

4% conviction (2yr+) 64% medium 32% new
Only 14 funds (4%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -0%, value -23%

Value
-23%
Shares
0%
Last quarter: funds added -0% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -23%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~58 new funds/quarter

45 → 65 → 71 → 85 → 58 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 65 → 71 → 85 → 58. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 2% veterans, 40% new entrants

2% veterans 59% 1-2yr 40% new
Of 367 current holders: 7 (2%) held 2+ years, 215 held 1–2 years, 145 (40%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
🏆

Elite ownership — 54% AUM from top-100 funds

54% from top-100 AUM funds
53 of 350 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 54% of total institutional value in CNR. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.8
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.8/10 — 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.
