Smart Money Signals — SGOV

Based on 1207 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 11 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 11 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added SGOV 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
1,207 hedge funds hold SGOV 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 — +44% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+366 new funds entered over the past year (+44% 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

766 buying461 selling
Last quarter: 766 funds were net buyers (211 opened a brand new position + 555 added to an existing one). Only 461 were sellers (370 trimmed + 91 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~211 new funds per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 140 → 167 → 206 → 211. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌

Of the 1,207 current holders: 413 (34%) held >2 years, 402 held 1–2 years, and 392 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

172 → 140 → 167 → 206 → 211 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 140 → 167 → 206 → 211. A growing number of institutions are discovering SGOV each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.

Of 1,210 current holders: 441 (36%) held 2+ years, 237 held 1–2 years, 532 (44%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

Strong quality — 25% AUM from major funds

25% from top-100 AUM funds

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.3/10 — 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.
