Smart Money Signals — COTY

Based on 310 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 COTY 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 — 90% of 3.0Y peak

90% of all-time peak

310 funds currently hold this stock — 90% of the 3.0-year high of 343 funds (reached 2024 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.

📉

Outflows — 5% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

15 fewer hedge funds hold COTY compared to a year ago (-5% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.

🟡

Slight buying edge — 50% buying

174 buying176 selling

Last quarter: 174 funds bought or added vs 176 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 (-21 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 36 → 70 → 87 → 66. 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.

🔒

58% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 58% conviction (2yr+) ■ 15% medium ■ 26% new

181 out of 310 hedge funds have held COTY 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 +92% but shares only +13% — price-driven

Value

+92%

+13%

Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +92%, 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 → 36 → 70 → 87 → 66 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 36 → 70 → 87 → 66. A growing number of institutions are discovering COTY each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.

🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 66% veterans vs 24% newcomers

■ 66% veterans ■ 10% 1-2yr ■ 24% new

Entry-cohort mix of 316 holders: 208 (66%) are 2+ year veterans, 32 entered 1–2 years ago, and 76 (24%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

✅

Strong quality — 36% AUM from major funds

36% from top-100 AUM funds

49 of 309 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 36% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

3.2

out of 10

Low Exit Risk

Exit risk score 3.2/10 — 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.
