Smart Money Signals — FSEC

Based on 45 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 7 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 7 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added FSEC 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.
🏔️

At the ownership peak (100% of max)

100% of all-time peak
45 hedge funds hold FSEC 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 — +125% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+25 new funds entered over the past year (+125% 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 — 57% buying

31 buying23 selling
Last quarter: 31 funds bought or added vs 23 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 — ~18 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 18 → 17 → 14 → 18. 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

16% conviction (2yr+) 22% medium 62% new
Only 7 funds (16%) 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 — ~18 new funds/quarter

11 → 18 → 17 → 14 → 18 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 18 → 17 → 14 → 18. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱

Early stage — 78% of holders entered in last year

18% veterans 4% 1-2yr 78% new
Of 45 current holders: 35 (78%) entered in the past year, only 8 (18%) 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 — 100% AUM from top-100 funds

100% from top-100 AUM funds
11 of 45 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 100% of total institutional value in FSEC. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
5.3
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.3/10 — 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.
