Smart Money Signals — IRIX

Based on 18 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

➡️

No change last quarter

last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding this stock didn't change last quarter. Neither a buying nor selling signal on its own — watch the next quarter for direction.
🔻

Below peak — only 67% of 3.0Y high

67% of all-time peak
Only 18 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 27 funds at 2023 Q4 — just 67% 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 — 22% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
5 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-22% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 44% buying

7 buying9 selling
Last quarter: 9 funds reduced or exited vs 7 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 — ~4 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 2 → 2 → 3 → 4. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

67% of holders stayed for 2+ years

67% conviction (2yr+) 17% medium 17% new
12 out of 18 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

1 → 2 → 2 → 3 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 2 → 3 → 4. 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 — 67% of holders stayed 2+ years

67% veterans 17% 1-2yr 17% new
Of 18 current holders: 12 (67%) 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.

Strong quality — 22% from major AUM funds

22% from top-100 AUM funds
