Smart Money Signals — EMCS

Based on 19 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their EMCS positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊

High ownership — 90% of 3.0Y peak

90% of all-time peak
19 funds currently hold this stock — 90% of the 3.0-year high of 21 funds (reached 2024 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶

Steady growth — +12% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+2 new funds entered over the past year (+12% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction. The peak was reached in just 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🔴

Heavy selling pressure — only 25% buying

4 buying12 selling
Last quarter: 12 funds sold vs only 4 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~1 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 4 → 2 → 4 → 1. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

58% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 58% conviction (2yr+) ■ 37% medium ■ 5% new
11 out of 19 hedge funds have held EMCS 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.
📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

2 → 4 → 2 → 4 → 1 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 2 → 4 → 1. EMCS is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 63% veterans vs 26% newcomers

■ 63% veterans ■ 11% 1-2yr ■ 26% new
Entry-cohort mix of 19 holders: 12 (63%) are 2+ year veterans, 2 entered 1–2 years ago, and 5 (26%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 1% AUM from top-100

1% from top-100 AUM funds

4.1
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.1/10 — 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.
