Smart Money Signals — OFIX

Based on 144 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added OFIX 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 — 90% of 3.0Y peak

90% of all-time peak
144 funds currently hold this stock — 90% of the 3.0-year high of 160 funds (reached 2025 Q1). 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
16 fewer hedge funds hold OFIX 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 — 56% buying

80 buying63 selling
Last quarter: 80 funds bought or added vs 63 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 — ~28 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 26 → 22 → 24 → 28. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

62% of holders stayed for 2+ years

62% conviction (2yr+) 20% medium 17% new
90 out of 144 hedge funds have held OFIX 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 +2%, value -24%

Value
-23%
Shares
+2%
Last quarter: funds added +2% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -24%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~28 new funds/quarter

23 → 26 → 22 → 24 → 28 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 26 → 22 → 24 → 28. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 68% of holders stayed 2+ years

68% veterans 12% 1-2yr 20% new
Of 145 current holders: 99 (68%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
📋

Smaller funds dominant — 19% AUM from top-100

19% from top-100 AUM funds
37 of 144 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.
2.9
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 2.9/10 — 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.
