Smart Money Signals — DFEM

Based on 477 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 11 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 11 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added DFEM 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
477 hedge funds hold DFEM 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.
🚀

Fast accumulation — +28% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+104 new funds entered over the past year (+28% 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 buyers than sellers — 69% buying

329 buying145 selling
Last quarter: 329 funds were net buyers (69 opened a brand new position + 260 added to an existing one). Only 145 were sellers (115 trimmed + 30 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+29 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new DFEM position: 37 → 47 → 40 → 69. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

46% of holders stayed for 2+ years

46% conviction (2yr+) 29% medium 25% new
221 out of 477 hedge funds have held DFEM 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.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

73 → 37 → 47 → 40 → 69 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 37 → 47 → 40 → 69. A growing number of institutions are discovering DFEM each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 39% veterans, 40% new entrants

39% veterans 21% 1-2yr 40% new
Of 477 current holders: 186 (39%) held 2+ years, 101 held 1–2 years, 190 (40%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 3% AUM from top-100

3% from top-100 AUM funds
15 of 477 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 3% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
3.9
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.9/10 — 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.
