Smart Money Signals — GSST

Based on 160 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 9 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 9 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added GSST 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
160 hedge funds hold GSST 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 — +22% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+29 new funds entered over the past year (+22% 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.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 60% buying

94 buying63 selling
Last quarter: 94 funds were net buyers (18 opened a brand new position + 76 added to an existing one). Only 63 were sellers (48 trimmed + 15 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~18 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 16 → 23 → 23 → 18. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌

Mixed — 38% long-term, 28% new

38% conviction (2yr+) 35% medium 28% new
Of the 160 current holders: 60 (38%) held >2 years, 56 held 1–2 years, and 44 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~18 new funds/quarter

27 → 16 → 23 → 23 → 18 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 16 → 23 → 23 → 18. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 42% veterans vs 36% newcomers

42% veterans 22% 1-2yr 36% new
Entry-cohort mix of 160 holders: 67 (42%) are 2+ year veterans, 35 entered 1–2 years ago, and 58 (36%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

Strong quality — 35% AUM from major funds

35% from top-100 AUM funds
13 of 159 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 35% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
4.0
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.0/10 — 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.
