Smart Money Signals — CHI

Based on 142 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added CHI 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
142 hedge funds hold CHI 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.
📶

Steady growth — +16% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+20 new funds entered over the past year (+16% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 65% buying

74 buying39 selling
Last quarter: 74 funds were net buyers (24 opened a brand new position + 50 added to an existing one). Only 39 were sellers (30 trimmed + 9 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+7 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new CHI position: 13 → 20 → 17 → 24. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

60% of holders stayed for 2+ years

60% conviction (2yr+) 23% medium 17% new
85 out of 142 hedge funds have held CHI 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.
💰

Value +65% but shares only +13% — price-driven

Value
+65%
Shares
+13%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +65%, but actual share count only changed +13%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

20 → 13 → 20 → 17 → 24 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 13 → 20 → 17 → 24. A growing number of institutions are discovering CHI each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 63% of holders stayed 2+ years

63% veterans 11% 1-2yr 27% new
Of 142 current holders: 89 (63%) 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 — 71% AUM from top-100 funds

71% from top-100 AUM funds
15 of 142 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 71% of total institutional value in CHI. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.6
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.6/10 — 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.
