📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q

📊

High ownership — 89% of 3.0Y peak

89% of all-time peak

155 funds currently hold this stock — 89% of the 3.0-year high of 174 funds (reached 2025 Q4). 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

11 fewer hedge funds hold CEVA compared to a year ago (-7% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.

🟠

More sellers than buyers — 47% buying

80 buying90 selling

Last quarter: 90 funds reduced or exited vs 80 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.

⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-23 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 24 → 23 → 48 → 25. 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+) ■ 24% medium ■ 17% new

91 out of 155 hedge funds have held CEVA 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 -2%, value -22%

Value

-22%

-1%

Last quarter: funds added -2% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -22%. 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

28 → 24 → 23 → 48 → 25 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 24 → 23 → 48 → 25. 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 — 67% of holders stayed 2+ years

■ 67% veterans ■ 12% 1-2yr ■ 21% new

Of 156 current holders: 105 (67%) 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.

✅

Strong quality — 36% AUM from major funds

36% from top-100 AUM funds

37 of 155 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 36% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

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.
