Smart Money Signals — CRD/A

Based on 106 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 CRD/A 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 (96% of max)

96% of all-time peak
106 hedge funds hold CRD/A 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.
〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding CRD/A is almost the same as a year ago (-3 funds, -3% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 57% buying

54 buying40 selling
Last quarter: 54 funds bought or added vs 40 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.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~13 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 18 → 13 → 11 → 13. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

58% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 58% conviction (2yr+) ■ 24% medium ■ 18% new
62 out of 106 hedge funds have held CRD/A 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.
📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

13 → 18 → 13 → 11 → 13 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 18 → 13 → 11 → 13. CRD/A is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 60% veterans vs 26% newcomers

■ 60% veterans ■ 13% 1-2yr ■ 26% new
Entry-cohort mix of 106 holders: 64 (60%) are 2+ year veterans, 14 entered 1–2 years ago, and 28 (26%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
✅

Strong quality — 25% AUM from major funds

25% from top-100 AUM funds
32 of 106 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 25% 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.
