Smart Money Signals — NJAN

Based on 110 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 NJAN 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
110 hedge funds hold NJAN 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.
📶

Steady growth — +13% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+13 new funds entered over the past year (+13% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 65% buying

66 buying35 selling
Last quarter: 66 funds were net buyers (24 opened a brand new position + 42 added to an existing one). Only 35 were sellers (22 trimmed + 13 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+8 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new NJAN position: 14 → 12 → 16 → 24. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

50% of holders stayed for 2+ years

50% conviction (2yr+) 21% medium 29% new
55 out of 110 hedge funds have held NJAN 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.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares +27%, value -1%

Value
0%
Shares
+26%
Last quarter: funds added +27% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -1%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
🚀

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in

23 → 14 → 12 → 16 → 24 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 14 → 12 → 16 → 24. 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.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 49% veterans vs 37% newcomers

49% veterans 14% 1-2yr 37% new
Entry-cohort mix of 110 holders: 54 (49%) are 2+ year veterans, 15 entered 1–2 years ago, and 41 (37%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 4% AUM from top-100

4% from top-100 AUM funds
4 of 110 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 4% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
3.8
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.8/10 — 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.
