Smart Money Signals — DFIP

Based on 170 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 4 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 4 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added DFIP 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
170 hedge funds hold DFIP 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 — +26% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+35 new funds entered over the past year (+26% 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 — 70% buying

111 buying48 selling
Last quarter: 111 funds were net buyers (18 opened a brand new position + 93 added to an existing one). Only 48 were sellers (38 trimmed + 10 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~18 new funds per quarter

■ 46% conviction (2yr+) ■ 29% medium ■ 25% new

12 → 16 → 29 → 23 → 18 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 16 → 29 → 23 → 18. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 42% veterans vs 32% newcomers

■ 42% veterans ■ 26% 1-2yr ■ 32% new
Entry-cohort mix of 170 holders: 72 (42%) are 2+ year veterans, 44 entered 1–2 years ago, and 54 (32%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 2% AUM from top-100

2% from top-100 AUM 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.
