Smart Money Signals — VTEB

Based on 1341 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 3 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added VTEB 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
1,341 hedge funds hold VTEB 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 — +12% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+148 new funds entered over the past year (+12% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 62% buying

773 buying472 selling
Last quarter: 773 funds were net buyers (133 opened a brand new position + 640 added to an existing one). Only 472 were sellers (386 trimmed + 86 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-46 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 110 → 107 → 179 → 133. 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.
🔒

57% of holders stayed for 2+ years

57% conviction (2yr+) 23% medium 20% new
769 out of 1,341 hedge funds have held VTEB 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.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

116 → 110 → 107 → 179 → 133 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 110 → 107 → 179 → 133. A growing number of institutions are discovering VTEB each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 60% veterans vs 24% newcomers

60% veterans 16% 1-2yr 24% new
Entry-cohort mix of 1,345 holders: 802 (60%) are 2+ year veterans, 220 entered 1–2 years ago, and 323 (24%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 46% AUM from top-100 funds

46% from top-100 AUM funds
35 of 1340 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 46% of total institutional value in VTEB. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.7
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.7/10 — 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.
