Smart Money Signals — T

Based on 2703 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their T 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 — 91% of 3.0Y peak

91% of all-time peak
2,703 funds currently hold this stock — 91% of the 3.0-year high of 2,978 funds (reached 2026 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 5% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
144 fewer hedge funds hold T compared to a year ago (-5% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 44% buying

1313 buying1644 selling
Last quarter: 1,644 funds reduced or exited vs 1,313 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-151 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 180 → 304 → 341 → 190. 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.
🔒

74% of holders stayed for 2+ years

74% conviction (2yr+) 14% medium 12% new
1,998 out of 2,703 hedge funds have held T 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 +4%, value -21%

Value
-20%
Shares
+4%
Last quarter: funds added +4% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -21%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~190 new funds/quarter

234 → 180 → 304 → 341 → 190 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 180 → 304 → 341 → 190. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 75% veterans vs 14% newcomers

75% veterans 11% 1-2yr 14% new
Entry-cohort mix of 2,785 holders: 2,095 (75%) are 2+ year veterans, 297 entered 1–2 years ago, and 393 (14%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 65% AUM from top-100 funds

65% from top-100 AUM funds
72 of 2692 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 65% of total institutional value in T. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.2
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.2/10 — 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.
