Smart Money Signals — DELL

Based on 1645 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 4 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 4 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added DELL 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
1,645 hedge funds hold DELL 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
+388 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.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 54% buying

900 buying765 selling
Last quarter: 900 funds bought or added vs 765 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.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+81 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new DELL position: 243 → 213 → 231 → 312. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

51% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 51% conviction (2yr+) ■ 25% medium ■ 23% new
847 out of 1,645 hedge funds have held DELL 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.
💰

Price up while funds trimmed (+19% value, -6% shares)

Value
+18%
Shares
-6%
Last quarter: total value of institutional DELL holdings rose +19% even though funds reduced share count by 6%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

184 → 243 → 213 → 231 → 312 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 243 → 213 → 231 → 312. A growing number of institutions are discovering DELL each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 57% veterans vs 27% newcomers

■ 57% veterans ■ 16% 1-2yr ■ 27% new
Entry-cohort mix of 1,736 holders: 986 (57%) are 2+ year veterans, 276 entered 1–2 years ago, and 474 (27%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 51% AUM from top-100 funds

51% from top-100 AUM funds
65 of 1631 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 51% of total institutional value in DELL. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.9
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.9/10 — 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.
