Smart Money Signals — FDS

Based on 728 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 FDS 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.
📊

High ownership — 94% of 3.0Y peak

94% of all-time peak
728 funds currently hold this stock — 94% of the 3.0-year high of 777 funds (reached 2024 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
49 fewer hedge funds hold FDS compared to a year ago (-6% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 50% buying

399 buying392 selling
Last quarter: 399 funds bought or added vs 392 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.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+67 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new FDS position: 76 → 94 → 91 → 158. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.

481 out of 728 hedge funds have held FDS for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.

Value
+12%
Shares
+36%

New funds entering each quarter: 76 → 94 → 91 → 158. A growing number of institutions are discovering FDS each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

■ 70% veterans ■ 10% 1-2yr ■ 20% new

52% from top-100 AUM funds
41 of 728 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 52% of total institutional value in FDS. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.2
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.2/10 — 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.
