Smart Money Signals — TRIN

Based on 167 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added TRIN 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
167 hedge funds hold TRIN 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 — +30% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+39 new funds entered over the past year (+30% 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 — 63% buying

106 buying62 selling
Last quarter: 106 funds were net buyers (32 opened a brand new position + 74 added to an existing one). Only 62 were sellers (33 trimmed + 29 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-12 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 27 → 25 → 44 → 32. 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.
📌

Mixed — 33% long-term, 34% new

33% conviction (2yr+) 33% medium 34% new
Of the 167 current holders: 55 (33%) held >2 years, 55 held 1–2 years, and 57 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.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares +8%, value -15%

Value
-14%
Shares
+7%
Last quarter: funds added +8% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -15%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

33 → 27 → 25 → 44 → 32 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 27 → 25 → 44 → 32. A growing number of institutions are discovering TRIN each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 38% veterans, 42% new entrants

38% veterans 20% 1-2yr 42% new
Of 172 current holders: 66 (38%) held 2+ years, 34 held 1–2 years, 72 (42%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

Strong quality — 28% AUM from major funds

28% from top-100 AUM funds
23 of 165 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 28% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
4.4
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.4/10 — 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.
