📉

Selling streak — 3 quarters in a row

last 6Q

For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their CRTO positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.

🔻

Below peak — only 69% of 3.0Y high

69% of all-time peak

Only 122 funds hold CRTO today versus a peak of 178 funds at 2024 Q4 — just 69% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.

📉

Outflows — 16% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

23 fewer hedge funds hold CRTO compared to a year ago (-16% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.

🟠

More sellers than buyers — 44% buying

59 buying74 selling

Last quarter: 74 funds reduced or exited vs 59 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 (-12 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 29 → 30 → 24 → 12. 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.

🔒

70% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 70% conviction (2yr+) ■ 15% medium ■ 15% new

86 out of 122 hedge funds have held CRTO 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

23 → 29 → 30 → 24 → 12 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 29 → 30 → 24 → 12. CRTO 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 — 77% veterans vs 14% newcomers

■ 77% veterans ■ 8% 1-2yr ■ 14% new

Entry-cohort mix of 132 holders: 102 (77%) are 2+ year veterans, 11 entered 1–2 years ago, and 19 (14%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

🏆

Elite ownership — 47% AUM from top-100 funds

47% from top-100 AUM funds

34 of 122 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 47% of total institutional value in CRTO. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

2.1

out of 10

Low Exit Risk

Exit risk score 2.1/10 — 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.
