Smart Money Signals — HPF

Based on 44 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

📊

High ownership — 88% of 3.0Y peak

88% of all-time peak
44 funds currently hold this stock — 88% of the 3.0-year high of 50 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶

Steady growth — +5% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+2 new funds entered over the past year (+5% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 38% buying

16 buying26 selling
Last quarter: 26 funds sold vs only 16 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 13 → 5 → 6 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.

💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -3%, value -24%

Value
-24%
Shares
-3%
Last quarter: funds added -3% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -24%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

6 → 13 → 5 → 6 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 13 → 5 → 6 → 5. HPF is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.

70% veterans 7% 1-2yr 23% new
Entry-cohort mix of 44 holders: 31 (70%) are 2+ year veterans, 3 entered 1–2 years ago, and 10 (23%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

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.
