Smart Money Signals — MESA

Based on 32 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q3 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 5 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 5 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their MESA positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🔻

Below peak — only 62% of 3.0Y high

62% of all-time peak
Only 32 funds hold MESA today versus a peak of 52 funds at 2022 Q4 — just 62% 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 — 20% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
8 fewer hedge funds hold MESA compared to a year ago (-20% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 50% buying

16 buying16 selling
Last quarter: 16 funds bought or added vs 16 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.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 9 → 4 → 8 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
💰

Value +53% but shares only +10% — price-driven

Value
+53%
Shares
+9%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +53%, but actual share count only changed +10%. 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 — ~5 new funds/quarter

7 → 9 → 4 → 8 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 9 → 4 → 8 → 5. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
1.1
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 1.1/10 — 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.
