Smart Money Signals — TSLA

Based on 4328 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added TSLA 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
4,328 hedge funds hold TSLA 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.
📶

Steady growth — +17% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+628 new funds entered over the past year (+17% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 60% buying

2498 buying1693 selling
Last quarter: 2,498 funds were net buyers (350 opened a brand new position + 2148 added to an existing one). Only 1,693 were sellers (1466 trimmed + 227 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+96 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new TSLA position: 433 → 574 → 254 → 350. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

63% of holders stayed for 2+ years

63% conviction (2yr+) 22% medium 15% new
2,726 out of 4,328 hedge funds have held TSLA 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.

Shares
+98%
Last quarter: funds added +99% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +18%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

371 → 433 → 574 → 254 → 350 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 433 → 574 → 254 → 350. TSLA is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 66% veterans vs 18% newcomers

66% veterans 16% 1-2yr 18% new
Entry-cohort mix of 4,609 holders: 3,026 (66%) are 2+ year veterans, 755 entered 1–2 years ago, and 828 (18%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 66% AUM from top-100 funds

66% from top-100 AUM funds
74 of 4294 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 66% of total institutional value in TSLA. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.5
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.5/10 — 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.
