Smart Money Signals — ETHE

Based on 259 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 3 quarters in a row

last 6Q

For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their ETHE positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.

📊

High ownership — 77% of 3.0Y peak

77% of all-time peak

259 funds currently hold this stock — 77% of the 3.0-year high of 337 funds (reached 2025 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.

📉

Outflows — 9% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

25 fewer hedge funds hold ETHE compared to a year ago (-9% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.

🟠

More sellers than buyers — 44% buying

89 buying115 selling

Last quarter: 115 funds reduced or exited vs 89 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.

➡️

Steady new buyers — ~34 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 90 → 39 → 35 → 34. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.

🔄

Mostly new holders — 20% entered in last year

■ 6% conviction (2yr+) ■ 74% medium ■ 20% new

Only 16 funds (6%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.

💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -18%, value -40%

Value

-40%

-18%

Last quarter: funds added -18% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -40%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

30 → 90 → 39 → 35 → 34 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 90 → 39 → 35 → 34. ETHE is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.

📊

Mixed cohorts — 5% veterans, 25% new entrants

■ 5% veterans ■ 70% 1-2yr ■ 25% new

Of 265 current holders: 12 (5%) held 2+ years, 186 held 1–2 years, 67 (25%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

📋

Smaller funds dominant — 12% AUM from top-100

12% from top-100 AUM funds

15 of 258 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 12% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

2.6

out of 10

Low Exit Risk

Exit risk score 2.6/10 — 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.
