Smart Money Signals — VGIT

Based on 983 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 3 quarters in a row

last 6Q

For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added VGIT 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

983 hedge funds hold VGIT 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 — +22% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+175 new funds entered over the past year (+22% 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

612 buying334 selling

Last quarter: 612 funds were net buyers (120 opened a brand new position + 492 added to an existing one). Only 334 were sellers (242 trimmed + 92 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: 78 → 162 → 132 → 120. 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.

🔒

53% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 53% conviction (2yr+) ■ 23% medium ■ 23% new

523 out of 983 hedge funds have held VGIT 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.

➡️

Steady discovery — ~120 new funds/quarter

107 → 78 → 162 → 132 → 120 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 78 → 162 → 132 → 120. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 55% veterans vs 27% newcomers

■ 55% veterans ■ 17% 1-2yr ■ 27% new

Entry-cohort mix of 983 holders: 543 (55%) are 2+ year veterans, 171 entered 1–2 years ago, and 269 (27%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

🏆

Elite ownership — 51% AUM from top-100 funds

51% from top-100 AUM funds

32 of 980 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 51% of total institutional value in VGIT. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

3.9

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.
