Smart Money Signals — CMTL

Based on 67 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 CMTL 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.
🔻

Below peak — only 49% of 3.0Y high

49% of all-time peak
Only 67 funds hold CMTL today versus a peak of 136 funds at 2023 Q2 — just 49% 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 — 7% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
5 fewer hedge funds hold CMTL compared to a year ago (-7% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 50% buying

33 buying33 selling
Last quarter: 33 funds bought or added vs 33 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.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~14 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 7 → 6 → 10 → 14. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

69% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 69% conviction (2yr+) ■ 19% medium ■ 12% new
46 out of 67 hedge funds have held CMTL 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 +115% but shares only +5% — price-driven

Value
+114%
Shares
+4%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +115%, but actual share count only changed +5%. 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

17 → 7 → 6 → 10 → 14 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 7 → 6 → 10 → 14. A growing number of institutions are discovering CMTL each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 83% of holders stayed 2+ years

■ 83% veterans ■ 4% 1-2yr ■ 12% new
Of 72 current holders: 60 (83%) 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 — 22% AUM from major funds

22% from top-100 AUM funds
17 of 67 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 22% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
1.0
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 1.0/10 — 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.
