Smart Money Signals — IONQ

Based on 794 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 IONQ 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
794 hedge funds hold IONQ 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 — +62% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+304 new funds entered over the past year (+62% 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 buyers than sellers — 68% buying

565 buying266 selling
Last quarter: 565 funds were net buyers (244 opened a brand new position + 321 added to an existing one). Only 266 were sellers (175 trimmed + 91 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+141 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new IONQ position: 173 → 175 → 103 → 244. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 44% entered in last year

■ 22% conviction (2yr+) ■ 35% medium ■ 44% new
Only 174 funds (22%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💰

Value +100% but shares only +17% — price-driven

Value
+99%
Shares
+16%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +100%, but actual share count only changed +17%. 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 — ~244 new funds/quarter

165 → 173 → 175 → 103 → 244 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 173 → 175 → 103 → 244. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 28% veterans, 52% new entrants

■ 28% veterans ■ 20% 1-2yr ■ 52% new
Of 851 current holders: 238 (28%) held 2+ years, 172 held 1–2 years, 441 (52%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
🏆

Elite ownership — 61% AUM from top-100 funds

61% from top-100 AUM funds
65 of 773 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 61% of total institutional value in IONQ. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
4.5
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.5/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.

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.
