Smart Money Signals — AMCX

Based on 176 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added AMCX 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 — 91% of 3.0Y peak

91% of all-time peak
176 funds currently hold this stock — 91% of the 3.0-year high of 193 funds (reached 2024 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 7% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
13 fewer hedge funds hold AMCX compared to a year ago (-7% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 52% buying

87 buying80 selling
Last quarter: 87 funds bought or added vs 80 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.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+6 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new AMCX position: 15 → 20 → 25 → 31. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

69% of holders stayed for 2+ years

69% conviction (2yr+) 22% medium 10% new
121 out of 176 hedge funds have held AMCX 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.
💰

Price up while funds trimmed (+8% value, -28% shares)

Value
+8%
Shares
-27%
Last quarter: total value of institutional AMCX holdings rose +8% even though funds reduced share count by 28%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.
🚀

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in

38 → 15 → 20 → 25 → 31 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 15 → 20 → 25 → 31. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 73% of holders stayed 2+ years

73% veterans 12% 1-2yr 14% new
Of 181 current holders: 133 (73%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
🏆

Elite ownership — 43% AUM from top-100 funds

43% from top-100 AUM funds
31 of 176 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 43% of total institutional value in AMCX. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
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.
