Smart Money Signals — INSW

Based on 262 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added this stock 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 trade.
🏔️

At the ownership peak (95% of max)

95% of all-time peak
262 hedge funds hold this stock 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 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
📶

Steady growth — +13% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+30 new funds entered over the past year (+13% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction. The peak was reached in just 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 51% buying

138 buying132 selling
Last quarter: 138 funds bought or added vs 132 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 (+18 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 52 → 37 → 40 → 58. A growing number of new institutional buyers means the stock is still being discovered — the opportunity hasn't been fully priced in.
🔒

49% of holders stayed for 2+ years

49% conviction (2yr+) 27% medium 24% new
128 out of 262 hedge funds have held this stock for over 2 years without selling. Long-term holders are harder to shake out during market dips — they represent a stable ownership base that reduces the risk of sudden mass selling.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

53 → 52 → 37 → 40 → 58 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 52 → 37 → 40 → 58. A growing number of institutions are discovering this stock each quarter. The idea is still spreading — there is room for more buyers to enter.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 54% of holders stayed 2+ years

54% veterans 14% 1-2yr 33% new
Of 266 current holders: 143 (54%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
🏆

Elite ownership — 59% AUM from top-100 funds

59% from top-100 AUM funds
34 of 262 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 59% of total institutional value in this stock. When the biggest players hold the majority of a position, it reflects deep institutional conviction — large funds have the most resources for due diligence and the most at stake.
3.5
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.5/10 — 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.
