Smart Money Signals — CQP

Based on 203 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added CQP 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

203 hedge funds hold CQP 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 — +8% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+15 new funds entered over the past year (+8% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.

92 buying59 selling

Last quarter: 92 funds were net buyers (35 opened a brand new position + 57 added to an existing one). Only 59 were sellers (46 trimmed + 13 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.

📈

More new buyers each quarter (+21 vs last Q)

■ 63% conviction (2yr+) ■ 21% medium ■ 16% new

128 out of 203 hedge funds have held CQP 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.

💰

Price up while funds trimmed (+21% value, -0% shares)

Value

+20%

Last quarter: total value of institutional CQP holdings rose +21% even though funds reduced share count by 0%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.

🚀

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in

23 → 19 → 12 → 14 → 35 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 19 → 12 → 14 → 35. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.

🏛️

Deep conviction — 68% of holders stayed 2+ years

■ 68% veterans ■ 12% 1-2yr ■ 19% new

Of 209 current holders: 143 (68%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.

📋

Smaller funds dominant — 2% AUM from top-100

2% from top-100 AUM funds

3.5

out of 10

Low Exit Risk

Exit risk score 3.5/10 — 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.
