Smart Money Signals — ROP

Based on 1077 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 4 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 4 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their ROP positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊

High ownership — 82% of 3.0Y peak

82% of all-time peak
1,077 funds currently hold this stock — 82% of the 3.0-year high of 1,318 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 18% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
241 fewer hedge funds hold ROP compared to a year ago (-18% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 38% buying

432 buying699 selling
Last quarter: 699 funds sold vs only 432 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-23 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 115 → 164 → 136 → 113. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔒

71% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 71% conviction (2yr+) ■ 14% medium ■ 15% new
766 out of 1,077 hedge funds have held ROP 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 +64%, value +0%

Value
+0%
Shares
+63%
Last quarter: funds added +64% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +0%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~113 new funds/quarter

136 → 115 → 164 → 136 → 113 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 115 → 164 → 136 → 113. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 72% veterans vs 17% newcomers

■ 72% veterans ■ 11% 1-2yr ■ 17% new
Entry-cohort mix of 1,095 holders: 793 (72%) are 2+ year veterans, 117 entered 1–2 years ago, and 185 (17%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 57% AUM from top-100 funds

57% from top-100 AUM funds
66 of 1075 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 57% of total institutional value in ROP. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.1
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.1/10 — 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.
