Smart Money Signals — LSTA

Based on 29 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their LSTA 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 — 88% of 3.0Y peak

88% of all-time peak
29 funds currently hold this stock — 88% of the 3.0-year high of 33 funds (reached 2026 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀

Fast accumulation — +38% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+8 new funds entered over the past year (+38% 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 — 52% buying

12 buying11 selling
Last quarter: 12 funds bought or added vs 11 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 (-10 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 5 → 7 → 13 → 3. 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.
📌

Mixed — 28% long-term, 48% new

28% conviction (2yr+) 24% medium 48% new
Of the 29 current holders: 8 (28%) held >2 years, 7 held 1–2 years, and 14 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares +3%, value -31%

Value
-30%
Shares
+3%
Last quarter: funds added +3% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -31%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~3 new funds/quarter

3 → 5 → 7 → 13 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 5 → 7 → 13 → 3. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱

Early stage — 55% of holders entered in last year

31% veterans 14% 1-2yr 55% new
Of 29 current holders: 16 (55%) entered in the past year, only 9 (31%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 19% AUM from top-100

19% from top-100 AUM funds
8 of 29 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 19% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
4.3
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.3/10 — 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.
