Smart Money Signals — FTRE

Based on 331 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 FTRE 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 — 81% of 3.0Y peak

81% of all-time peak
331 funds currently hold this stock — 81% of the 3.0-year high of 408 funds (reached 2023 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 6% fewer funds vs a year ago

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

Slight buying edge — 54% buying

168 buying146 selling
Last quarter: 168 funds bought or added vs 146 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 (-16 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 66 → 63 → 70 → 54. 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.
🔒

48% of holders stayed for 2+ years

48% conviction (2yr+) 29% medium 23% new
160 out of 331 hedge funds have held FTRE 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.

Buying through price weakness — shares +4%, value -45%

Value
-44%
Shares
+4%
Last quarter: funds added +4% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -45%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

74 → 66 → 63 → 70 → 54 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 66 → 63 → 70 → 54. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 57% veterans vs 30% newcomers

57% veterans 14% 1-2yr 30% new
Entry-cohort mix of 334 holders: 189 (57%) are 2+ year veterans, 46 entered 1–2 years ago, and 99 (30%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

2.6
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 2.6/10 — 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.
