Smart Money Signals — HIPS

Based on 34 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 HIPS 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 — 89% of 3.0Y peak

89% of all-time peak
34 funds currently hold this stock — 89% of the 3.0-year high of 38 funds (reached 2025 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding HIPS is almost the same as a year ago (-1 funds, -3% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 57% buying

16 buying12 selling
Last quarter: 16 funds bought or added vs 12 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 — ~7 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 7 → 8 → 5 → 7. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌

Mixed — 38% long-term, 24% new

■ 38% conviction (2yr+) ■ 38% medium ■ 24% new
Of the 34 current holders: 13 (38%) held >2 years, 13 held 1–2 years, and 8 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.
📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

10 → 7 → 8 → 5 → 7 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 7 → 8 → 5 → 7. HIPS is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 37% veterans, 37% new entrants

■ 37% veterans ■ 26% 1-2yr ■ 37% new
Of 35 current holders: 13 (37%) held 2+ years, 9 held 1–2 years, 13 (37%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 19% AUM from top-100

19% from top-100 AUM funds

3.0
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.0/10 — 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.
