Smart Money Signals — RBCAA

Based on 147 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 8 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 8 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added RBCAA 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
147 hedge funds hold RBCAA 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 — +24% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+28 new funds entered over the past year (+24% 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 — 65% buying

83 buying45 selling
Last quarter: 83 funds were net buyers (25 opened a brand new position + 58 added to an existing one). Only 45 were sellers (35 trimmed + 10 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+13 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new RBCAA position: 16 → 20 → 12 → 25. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

59% conviction (2yr+) 18% medium 22% new

🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 65% veterans vs 25% newcomers

65% veterans 10% 1-2yr 25% new
Entry-cohort mix of 147 holders: 95 (65%) are 2+ year veterans, 15 entered 1–2 years ago, and 37 (25%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

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.
