Value
+92%
Shares
+11%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +93%, but actual share count only changed +11%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.

3 → 4 → 4 → 5 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 4 → 5 → 3. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

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.
