Smart Money Signals — PAAA

Based on 273 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 11 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 11 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added PAAA 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
273 hedge funds hold PAAA 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 — +84% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+125 new funds entered over the past year (+84% 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 — 76% buying

213 buying69 selling
Last quarter: 213 funds were net buyers (67 opened a brand new position + 146 added to an existing one). Only 69 were sellers (46 trimmed + 23 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+11 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new PAAA position: 42 → 42 → 56 → 67. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 46% entered in last year

■ 10% conviction (2yr+) ■ 44% medium ■ 46% new
Only 27 funds (10%) 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.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

41 → 42 → 42 → 56 → 67 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 42 → 42 → 56 → 67. A growing number of institutions are discovering PAAA each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🌱

Early stage — 62% of holders entered in last year

■ 7% veterans ■ 31% 1-2yr ■ 62% new
Of 273 current holders: 170 (62%) entered in the past year, only 18 (7%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
✅

Strong quality — 31% AUM from major funds

31% from top-100 AUM funds
18 of 273 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 31% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
5.0
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.0/10 — 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.
