Smart Money Signals — IBEX

Based on 165 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their IBEX positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🏔️

At the ownership peak (96% of max)

96% of all-time peak
165 hedge funds hold IBEX 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.
📶

Steady growth — +15% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+22 new funds entered over the past year (+15% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 53% buying

98 buying86 selling
Last quarter: 98 funds bought or added vs 86 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 — ~26 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 20 → 31 → 31 → 26. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

41% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 41% conviction (2yr+) ■ 35% medium ■ 25% new
67 out of 165 hedge funds have held IBEX 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.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -0%, value -33%

Value
-32%
Shares
0%
Last quarter: funds added -0% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -33%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

39 → 20 → 31 → 31 → 26 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 20 → 31 → 31 → 26. A growing number of institutions are discovering IBEX each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 50% veterans vs 36% newcomers

■ 50% veterans ■ 14% 1-2yr ■ 36% new
Entry-cohort mix of 166 holders: 83 (50%) are 2+ year veterans, 23 entered 1–2 years ago, and 60 (36%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 41% AUM from top-100 funds

41% from top-100 AUM funds
40 of 165 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 41% of total institutional value in IBEX. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.7
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.7/10 — 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.
