Smart Money Signals — FBL

Based on 17 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their FBL 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 — 85% of 3.0Y peak

85% of all-time peak
17 funds currently hold this stock — 85% of the 3.0-year high of 20 funds (reached 2025 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 6% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
1 fewer hedge funds hold FBL compared to a year ago (-6% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 43% buying

10 buying13 selling
Last quarter: 13 funds reduced or exited vs 10 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 — ~3 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 5 → 8 → 6 → 3. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌

Mixed — 29% long-term, 29% new

29% conviction (2yr+) 41% medium 29% new
Of the 17 current holders: 5 (29%) held >2 years, 7 held 1–2 years, and 5 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares +77%, value +25%

Value
+24%
Shares
+76%
Last quarter: funds added +77% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +25%. 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

5 → 5 → 8 → 6 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 5 → 8 → 6 → 3. FBL 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 — 24% veterans, 33% new entrants

24% veterans 43% 1-2yr 33% new
Of 21 current holders: 5 (24%) held 2+ years, 9 held 1–2 years, 7 (33%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
🏆

Elite ownership — 88% AUM from top-100 funds

88% from top-100 AUM funds
7 of 16 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 88% of total institutional value in FBL. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.4
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.4/10 — 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.
