Smart Money Signals — NATR

Based on 150 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 6 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 6 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added NATR 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
150 hedge funds hold NATR 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 — +61% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+57 new funds entered over the past year (+61% 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

90 buying56 selling
Last quarter: 90 funds were net buyers (31 opened a brand new position + 59 added to an existing one). Only 56 were sellers (33 trimmed + 23 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~31 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 28 → 18 → 32 → 31. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

49% of holders stayed for 2+ years

49% conviction (2yr+) 23% medium 28% new
73 out of 150 hedge funds have held NATR 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.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

10 → 28 → 18 → 32 → 31 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 28 → 18 → 32 → 31. A growing number of institutions are discovering NATR each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 61% veterans vs 29% newcomers

61% veterans 9% 1-2yr 29% new
Entry-cohort mix of 150 holders: 92 (61%) are 2+ year veterans, 14 entered 1–2 years ago, and 44 (29%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

Strong quality — 26% AUM from major funds

26% from top-100 AUM funds
39 of 150 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 26% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
4.4
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.4/10 — 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.
