Smart Money Signals — EDV

Based on 189 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added EDV 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
189 hedge funds hold EDV 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.
📶

Steady growth — +12% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+21 new funds entered over the past year (+12% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 61% buying

117 buying76 selling
Last quarter: 117 funds were net buyers (52 opened a brand new position + 65 added to an existing one). Only 76 were sellers (52 trimmed + 24 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 EDV position: 49 → 29 → 23 → 52. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.

40% conviction (2yr+) 35% medium 25% new

40 → 49 → 29 → 23 → 52 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 49 → 29 → 23 → 52. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 51% of holders stayed 2+ years

51% veterans 14% 1-2yr 35% new
Of 194 current holders: 99 (51%) 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.

Strong quality — 29% AUM from major funds

29% from top-100 AUM funds
16 of 189 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 29% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
3.6
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.6/10 — 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.
