Smart Money Signals — CRTC

Based on 26 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their CRTC positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.

🏔️

At the ownership peak (96% of max)

96% of all-time peak

26 hedge funds hold CRTC right now — the highest count in 2.8 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.

🚀

Fast accumulation — +30% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+6 new funds entered over the past year (+30% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.

🟠

More sellers than buyers — 43% buying

12 buying16 selling

Last quarter: 16 funds reduced or exited vs 12 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.

⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-8 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 2 → 4 → 10 → 2. 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 — 35% entered in last year

■ 12% conviction (2yr+) ■ 54% medium ■ 35% new

Only 3 funds (12%) 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.

➡️

Steady discovery — ~2 new funds/quarter

7 → 2 → 4 → 10 → 2 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 4 → 10 → 2. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

📊

Mixed cohorts — 4% veterans, 50% new entrants

■ 4% veterans ■ 46% 1-2yr ■ 50% new

Of 26 current holders: 1 (4%) held 2+ years, 12 held 1–2 years, 13 (50%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

📋

Smaller funds dominant — 16% AUM from top-100

16% from top-100 AUM funds

9 of 26 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 16% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

4.7

out of 10

Moderate Exit Risk

Exit risk score 4.7/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.

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.
