Smart Money Signals — ICLR

Based on 428 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 ICLR 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.
🔻

Below peak — only 65% of 3.0Y high

65% of all-time peak
Only 428 funds hold ICLR today versus a peak of 654 funds at 2024 Q2 — just 65% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉

Outflows — 11% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
54 fewer hedge funds hold ICLR compared to a year ago (-11% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 52% buying

243 buying228 selling
Last quarter: 243 funds bought or added vs 228 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.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+20 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new ICLR position: 90 → 84 → 74 → 94. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

63% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 63% conviction (2yr+) ■ 19% medium ■ 18% new
269 out of 428 hedge funds have held ICLR 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.
💰

Value +55% but shares only +2% — price-driven

Value
+55%
Shares
+2%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +55%, but actual share count only changed +2%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~94 new funds/quarter

75 → 90 → 84 → 74 → 94 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 90 → 84 → 74 → 94. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 68% veterans vs 21% newcomers

■ 68% veterans ■ 10% 1-2yr ■ 21% new
Entry-cohort mix of 448 holders: 305 (68%) are 2+ year veterans, 47 entered 1–2 years ago, and 96 (21%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 43% AUM from top-100 funds

43% from top-100 AUM funds
53 of 422 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 43% of total institutional value in ICLR. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
1.7
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 1.7/10 — 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.
