Smart Money Signals — JOF

Based on 50 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added JOF 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.
📊

High ownership — 89% of 3.0Y peak

89% of all-time peak
50 funds currently hold this stock — 89% of the 3.0-year high of 56 funds (reached 2024 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 7% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
4 fewer hedge funds hold JOF compared to a year ago (-7% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 47% buying

22 buying25 selling
Last quarter: 25 funds reduced or exited vs 22 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.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+11 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new JOF position: 3 → 4 → 1 → 12. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

68% of holders stayed for 2+ years

68% conviction (2yr+) 16% medium 16% new

📈

Growing discovery — still being found

5 → 3 → 4 → 1 → 12 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 4 → 1 → 12. A growing number of institutions are discovering JOF each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 68% of holders stayed 2+ years

68% veterans 10% 1-2yr 22% new
Of 50 current holders: 34 (68%) 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.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 4% AUM from top-100

4% from top-100 AUM funds

3.0
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.0/10 — 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.
