Smart Money Signals — CUZ

Based on 372 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

At the ownership peak (100% of max)

100% of all-time peak

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding CUZ is almost the same as a year ago (+3 funds, +1% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.

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.
