Smart Money Signals — IAPR

Based on 101 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added IAPR 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
101 hedge funds hold IAPR 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 — +31% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+24 new funds entered over the past year (+31% 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 sellers than buyers — 49% buying

44 buying46 selling
Last quarter: 46 funds reduced or exited vs 44 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.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~15 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 24 → 8 → 13 → 15. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

46% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 46% conviction (2yr+) ■ 31% medium ■ 24% new
46 out of 101 hedge funds have held IAPR 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 — ~15 new funds/quarter

5 → 24 → 8 → 13 → 15 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 24 → 8 → 13 → 15. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 52% veterans vs 34% newcomers

■ 52% veterans ■ 14% 1-2yr ■ 34% new
Entry-cohort mix of 101 holders: 53 (52%) are 2+ year veterans, 14 entered 1–2 years ago, and 34 (34%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 5% AUM from top-100

5% from top-100 AUM funds

3.9
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.9/10 — 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.
