Smart Money Signals — GSHD

Based on 231 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added GSHD 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 — 82% of 3.0Y peak

82% of all-time peak
231 funds currently hold this stock — 82% of the 3.0-year high of 283 funds (reached 2025 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 14% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
39 fewer hedge funds hold GSHD compared to a year ago (-14% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 49% buying

116 buying120 selling
Last quarter: 120 funds reduced or exited vs 116 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.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+23 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new GSHD position: 38 → 48 → 27 → 50. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

63% of holders stayed for 2+ years

63% conviction (2yr+) 20% medium 17% new
145 out of 231 hedge funds have held GSHD 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.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~50 new funds/quarter

37 → 38 → 48 → 27 → 50 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 38 → 48 → 27 → 50. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 69% veterans vs 18% newcomers

69% veterans 13% 1-2yr 18% new
Entry-cohort mix of 235 holders: 162 (69%) are 2+ year veterans, 30 entered 1–2 years ago, and 43 (18%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 48% AUM from top-100 funds

48% from top-100 AUM funds
47 of 230 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 48% of total institutional value in GSHD. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
2.6
out of 10

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.
