Smart Money Signals — YANG

Based on 22 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 YANG 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.
📊

High ownership — 92% of 3.0Y peak

92% of all-time peak
22 funds currently hold this stock — 92% of the 3.0-year high of 24 funds (reached 2025 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 4% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
1 fewer hedge funds hold YANG compared to a year ago (-4% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 52% buying

14 buying13 selling
Last quarter: 14 funds bought or added vs 13 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~6 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 0 → 7 → 6 → 6. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

50% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 50% conviction (2yr+) ■ 45% medium ■ 5% new
11 out of 22 hedge funds have held YANG 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.
💰

Value +54% but shares only +12% — price-driven

Value
+53%
Shares
+12%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +54%, but actual share count only changed +12%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~6 new funds/quarter

4 → 0 → 7 → 6 → 6 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 0 → 7 → 6 → 6. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 78% veterans vs 4% newcomers

■ 78% veterans ■ 19% 1-2yr ■ 4% new
Entry-cohort mix of 27 holders: 21 (78%) are 2+ year veterans, 5 entered 1–2 years ago, and 1 (4%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 9% AUM from top-100

9% from top-100 AUM funds

2.8
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 2.8/10 — 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.
