Smart Money Signals — FLQS

Based on 27 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added FLQS 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
27 hedge funds hold FLQS 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 — +12% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+3 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.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 60% buying

15 buying10 selling
Last quarter: 15 funds were net buyers (5 opened a brand new position + 10 added to an existing one). Only 10 were sellers (7 trimmed + 3 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 4 → 4 → 4 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

15 out of 27 hedge funds have held FLQS 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 (+7% value, -12% shares)

Value
+6%
Shares
-11%
Last quarter: total value of institutional FLQS holdings rose +7% even though funds reduced share count by 12%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~5 new funds/quarter

4 → 4 → 4 → 4 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 4 → 4 → 5. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 52% veterans vs 33% newcomers

■ 52% veterans ■ 15% 1-2yr ■ 33% new
Entry-cohort mix of 27 holders: 14 (52%) are 2+ year veterans, 4 entered 1–2 years ago, and 9 (33%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

3.8
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.8/10 — 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.
