📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

📊

High ownership — 87% of 3.0Y peak

87% of all-time peak
407 funds currently hold this stock — 87% of the 3.0-year high of 466 funds (reached 2024 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

🟡

Slight buying edge — 51% buying

231 buying225 selling
Last quarter: 231 funds bought or added vs 225 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.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-54 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 84 → 69 → 113 → 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.
🔒

59% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 59% conviction (2yr+) ■ 22% medium ■ 18% new
241 out of 407 hedge funds have held ANF 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.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -11%, value -37%

Value
-37%
Shares
-10%
Last quarter: funds added -11% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -37%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

78 → 84 → 69 → 113 → 59 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 84 → 69 → 113 → 59. A growing number of institutions are discovering ANF each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 65% veterans vs 22% newcomers

■ 65% veterans ■ 12% 1-2yr ■ 22% new
Entry-cohort mix of 440 holders: 288 (65%) are 2+ year veterans, 55 entered 1–2 years ago, and 97 (22%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 67% AUM from top-100 funds

67% from top-100 AUM funds
58 of 402 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 67% of total institutional value in ANF. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
2.9
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 2.9/10 — 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.
