Smart Money Signals — CEPT

Based on 53 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 4 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 4 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their CEPT positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🔻

Below peak — only 60% of 3.0Y high

60% of all-time peak
Only 53 funds hold CEPT today versus a peak of 88 funds at 2025 Q2 — just 60% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉

Outflows — 40% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
35 fewer hedge funds hold CEPT compared to a year ago (-40% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 39% buying

31 buying48 selling
Last quarter: 48 funds sold vs only 31 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~17 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 10 → 12 → 16 → 17. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 58% entered in last year

8% conviction (2yr+) 34% medium 58% new
Only 4 funds (8%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares -38%, value -98%

Value
-98%
Shares
-37%
Last quarter: funds added -38% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -98%. 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

87 → 10 → 12 → 16 → 17 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 10 → 12 → 16 → 17. A growing number of institutions are discovering CEPT each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🌱

Early stage — 93% of holders entered in last year

7% veterans 0% 1-2yr 93% new
Of 61 current holders: 57 (93%) entered in the past year, only 4 (7%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 19% AUM from top-100

19% from top-100 AUM funds
10 of 53 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 19% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
3.0
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.0/10 — 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.
