Smart Money Signals — BWAY

Based on 55 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added BWAY 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

55 hedge funds hold BWAY 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 — +31% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+13 new funds entered over the past year (+31% 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 — 83% buying

52 buying11 selling

Last quarter: 52 funds were net buyers (21 opened a brand new position + 31 added to an existing one). Only 11 were sellers (2 trimmed + 9 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.

📈

More new buyers each quarter (+14 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening a new BWAY position: 6 → 10 → 7 → 21. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.

📌

Mixed — 25% long-term, 44% new

■ 25% conviction (2yr+) ■ 31% medium ■ 44% new

Of the 55 current holders: 14 (25%) held >2 years, 17 held 1–2 years, and 24 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 +98%, value +28%

Value

+28%

+97%

Last quarter: funds added +98% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +28%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

🚀

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in

9 → 6 → 10 → 7 → 21 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 6 → 10 → 7 → 21. 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.

📊

Mixed cohorts — 35% veterans, 45% new entrants

■ 35% veterans ■ 20% 1-2yr ■ 45% new

Of 55 current holders: 19 (35%) held 2+ years, 11 held 1–2 years, 25 (45%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

📋

Smaller funds dominant — 5% AUM from top-100

5% from top-100 AUM funds

13 of 55 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 5% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

4.4

out of 10

Moderate Exit Risk

Exit risk score 4.4/10 — 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.
