Smart Money Signals — FLGT

Based on 155 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 FLGT 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 — 78% of 3.0Y peak

78% of all-time peak
155 funds currently hold this stock — 78% of the 3.0-year high of 200 funds (reached 2023 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 10% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
18 fewer hedge funds hold FLGT compared to a year ago (-10% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 42% buying

76 buying104 selling
Last quarter: 104 funds reduced or exited vs 76 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.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-7 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 19 → 21 → 34 → 27. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔒

61% of holders stayed for 2+ years

61% conviction (2yr+) 21% medium 18% new
94 out of 155 hedge funds have held FLGT 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.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -11%, value -52%

Value
-51%
Shares
-11%
Last quarter: funds added -11% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -52%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
🚀

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in

26 → 19 → 21 → 34 → 27 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 19 → 21 → 34 → 27. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 69% veterans vs 19% newcomers

69% veterans 13% 1-2yr 19% new
Entry-cohort mix of 159 holders: 109 (69%) are 2+ year veterans, 20 entered 1–2 years ago, and 30 (19%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

Strong quality — 37% AUM from major funds

37% from top-100 AUM funds
38 of 155 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 37% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
2.8
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 2.8/10 — 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.
