Smart Money Signals — YSEP

Based on 66 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their YSEP positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.

🏔️

At the ownership peak (96% of max)

96% of all-time peak

66 hedge funds hold YSEP 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 — +32% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+16 new funds entered over the past year (+32% 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.

🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 38% buying

18 buying30 selling

Last quarter: 30 funds sold vs only 18 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.

⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-16 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 8 → 8 → 20 → 4. 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.

📌

Mixed — 32% long-term, 38% new

■ 32% conviction (2yr+) ■ 30% medium ■ 38% new

Of the 66 current holders: 21 (32%) held >2 years, 20 held 1–2 years, and 25 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.

💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -8%, value -29%

Value

-28%

-7%

Last quarter: funds added -8% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -29%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

➡️

Steady discovery — ~4 new funds/quarter

10 → 8 → 8 → 20 → 4 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 8 → 8 → 20 → 4. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

📊

Mixed cohorts — 35% veterans, 48% new entrants

■ 35% veterans ■ 17% 1-2yr ■ 48% new

Of 66 current holders: 23 (35%) held 2+ years, 11 held 1–2 years, 32 (48%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

📋

Smaller funds dominant — 7% AUM from top-100

7% from top-100 AUM funds

5.0

out of 10

Moderate Exit Risk

Exit risk score 5.0/10 — 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.
