Smart Money Signals — NVDU

Based on 35 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 NVDU 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.
📊

High ownership — 74% of 3.0Y peak

74% of all-time peak
35 funds currently hold this stock — 74% of the 3.0-year high of 47 funds (reached 2025 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 10% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
4 fewer hedge funds hold NVDU compared to a year ago (-10% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 51% buying

21 buying20 selling
Last quarter: 21 funds bought or added vs 20 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.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~12 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 13 → 8 → 7 → 12. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 34% entered in last year

■ 20% conviction (2yr+) ■ 46% medium ■ 34% new
Only 7 funds (20%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💰

Price up while funds trimmed (-3% value, -21% shares)

Value
-3%
Shares
-21%
Last quarter: total value of institutional NVDU holdings rose -3% even though funds reduced share count by 21%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~12 new funds/quarter

14 → 13 → 8 → 7 → 12 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 13 → 8 → 7 → 12. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 38% veterans, 36% new entrants

■ 38% veterans ■ 26% 1-2yr ■ 36% new
Of 42 current holders: 16 (38%) held 2+ years, 11 held 1–2 years, 15 (36%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 16% AUM from top-100

16% from top-100 AUM funds
8 of 34 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 16% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
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.
