Smart Money Signals — LEGT

Based on 47 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their LEGT positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🏔️

At the ownership peak (96% of max)

96% of all-time peak
47 hedge funds hold LEGT 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.
〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding LEGT is almost the same as a year ago (+1 funds, +2% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 39% buying

14 buying22 selling
Last quarter: 22 funds sold vs only 14 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~7 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 8 → 4 → 9 → 7. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 28% entered in last year

9% conviction (2yr+) 64% medium 28% new
Only 4 funds (9%) 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 +4305% but shares only +24% — price-driven

Value
+4304%
Shares
+23%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +4305%, but actual share count only changed +24%. 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 — ~7 new funds/quarter

4 → 8 → 4 → 9 → 7 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 8 → 4 → 9 → 7. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 4% veterans, 34% new entrants

4% veterans 62% 1-2yr 34% new
Of 47 current holders: 2 (4%) held 2+ years, 29 held 1–2 years, 16 (34%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
🏆

Elite ownership — 98% AUM from top-100 funds

98% from top-100 AUM funds
5 of 47 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 98% of total institutional value in LEGT. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
4.1
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.1/10 — 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.
