Smart Money Signals — VUSB

Based on 487 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 11 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 11 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added VUSB 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
487 hedge funds hold VUSB 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 — +39% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+137 new funds entered over the past year (+39% 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 — 61% buying

276 buying174 selling
Last quarter: 276 funds were net buyers (59 opened a brand new position + 217 added to an existing one). Only 174 were sellers (135 trimmed + 39 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-8 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 55 → 86 → 67 → 59. 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.
🔒

45% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 45% conviction (2yr+) ■ 28% medium ■ 28% new
218 out of 487 hedge funds have held VUSB 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 — ~59 new funds/quarter

44 → 55 → 86 → 67 → 59 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 55 → 86 → 67 → 59. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 48% veterans vs 37% newcomers

■ 48% veterans ■ 16% 1-2yr ■ 37% new
Entry-cohort mix of 487 holders: 233 (48%) are 2+ year veterans, 76 entered 1–2 years ago, and 178 (37%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 42% AUM from top-100 funds

42% from top-100 AUM funds

4.2
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.2/10 — 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.
