Smart Money Signals — FDCF

Based on 26 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their FDCF positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🏔️

At the ownership peak (96% of max)

96% of all-time peak
26 hedge funds hold FDCF 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 — +117% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+14 new funds entered over the past year (+117% 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.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 56% buying

14 buying11 selling
Last quarter: 14 funds bought or added vs 11 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 4 → 9 → 8 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 62% entered in last year

15% conviction (2yr+) 23% medium 62% new
Only 4 funds (15%) 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.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~5 new funds/quarter

4 → 4 → 9 → 8 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 9 → 8 → 5. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱

Early stage — 69% of holders entered in last year

19% veterans 12% 1-2yr 69% new
Of 26 current holders: 18 (69%) entered in the past year, only 5 (19%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
🏆

Elite ownership — 77% AUM from top-100 funds

77% from top-100 AUM funds
3 of 26 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 77% of total institutional value in FDCF. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
6.0
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 6.0/10 — 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.
