Smart Money Signals — SPHY

Based on 490 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added SPHY 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
490 hedge funds hold SPHY 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 — +23% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+91 new funds entered over the past year (+23% 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

318 buying173 selling
Last quarter: 318 funds were net buyers (82 opened a brand new position + 236 added to an existing one). Only 173 were sellers (136 trimmed + 37 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+15 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new SPHY position: 66 → 55 → 67 → 82. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
📌

Mixed — 39% long-term, 25% new

39% conviction (2yr+) 36% medium 25% new
Of the 490 current holders: 193 (39%) held >2 years, 174 held 1–2 years, and 123 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

89 → 66 → 55 → 67 → 82 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 66 → 55 → 67 → 82. A growing number of institutions are discovering SPHY each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 36% veterans, 36% new entrants

36% veterans 28% 1-2yr 36% new
Of 490 current holders: 176 (36%) held 2+ years, 136 held 1–2 years, 178 (36%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

Strong quality — 38% AUM from major funds

38% from top-100 AUM funds
24 of 490 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 38% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
3.9
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.9/10 — 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.
