Based on 215 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 3 quarters in a row

last 6Q

For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added DOLE 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

215 hedge funds hold DOLE 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 — +19% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q

+34 new funds entered over the past year (+19% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.

🟡

Slight buying edge — 53% buying

114 buying103 selling

Last quarter: 114 funds bought or added vs 103 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.

⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-12 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 27 → 41 → 46 → 34. 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.

🔒

42% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 42% conviction (2yr+) ■ 29% medium ■ 29% new

90 out of 215 hedge funds have held DOLE 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.

📈

Growing discovery — still being found

28 → 27 → 41 → 46 → 34 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 27 → 41 → 46 → 34. A growing number of institutions are discovering DOLE each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.

🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 51% veterans vs 31% newcomers

■ 51% veterans ■ 18% 1-2yr ■ 31% new

Entry-cohort mix of 218 holders: 111 (51%) are 2+ year veterans, 40 entered 1–2 years ago, and 67 (31%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

4.0

out of 10

Moderate Exit Risk

Exit risk score 4.0/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.

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.
