Smart Money Signals — MUX

Based on 156 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q

For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added MUX 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

156 hedge funds hold MUX 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 — +49% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+51 new funds entered over the past year (+49% 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 — 62% buying

101 buying63 selling

Last quarter: 101 funds were net buyers (47 opened a brand new position + 54 added to an existing one). Only 63 were sellers (40 trimmed + 23 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.

➡️

Steady new buyers — ~47 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 27 → 20 → 44 → 47. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.

🔒

51% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 51% conviction (2yr+) ■ 22% medium ■ 27% new

79 out of 156 hedge funds have held MUX for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.

🚀

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in

25 → 27 → 20 → 44 → 47 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 27 → 20 → 44 → 47. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.

🏛️

Deep conviction — 64% of holders stayed 2+ years

■ 64% veterans ■ 10% 1-2yr ■ 26% new

Of 170 current holders: 108 (64%) 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.

🏆

Elite ownership — 50% AUM from top-100 funds

50% from top-100 AUM funds

35 of 156 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 50% of total institutional value in MUX. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

4.3

out of 10

Moderate Exit Risk

Exit risk score 4.3/10 — 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.
