Smart Money Signals — DFIV

Based on 711 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 DFIV 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
711 hedge funds hold DFIV 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 — +31% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+168 new funds entered over the past year (+31% 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 — 63% buying

401 buying234 selling
Last quarter: 401 funds were net buyers (98 opened a brand new position + 303 added to an existing one). Only 234 were sellers (192 trimmed + 42 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+34 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new DFIV position: 70 → 74 → 64 → 98. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

50% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 50% conviction (2yr+) ■ 25% medium ■ 25% new

📈

Growing discovery — still being found

72 → 70 → 74 → 64 → 98 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 70 → 74 → 64 → 98. A growing number of institutions are discovering DFIV each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 49% of holders stayed 2+ years

■ 49% veterans ■ 17% 1-2yr ■ 34% new
Of 712 current holders: 347 (49%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 17% AUM from top-100

17% from top-100 AUM funds
20 of 711 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 17% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
4.0
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.0/10 — 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.
