📉
Selling streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their GSPY 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 — 83% of 3.0Y peak
83% of all-time peak
10 funds currently hold this stock — 83% of the 3.0-year high of 12 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +25% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+2 new funds entered over the past year (+25% 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
5 buying4 selling
Last quarter: 5 funds bought or added vs 4 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 — ~0 new funds per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 4 → 4 → 1 → 0. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
50% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 50% conviction (2yr+)
■ 30% medium
■ 20% new
5 out of 10 hedge funds have held GSPY 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
1 → 4 → 4 → 1 → 0 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 4 → 1 → 0. Far fewer institutions are entering now vs. a year ago. When the pool of potential new buyers shrinks this fast, future price support from institutional inflows weakens significantly.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 40% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 40% veterans
■ 30% 1-2yr
■ 30% new
Of 10 current holders: 4 (40%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 0% AUM from top-100
0% from top-100 AUM funds
3 of 10 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 0% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
Exit risk score 2.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
