Smart Money Signals — SD

Based on 161 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row

last 6Q
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added SD 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 (98% of max)

98% of all-time peak
161 hedge funds hold SD 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.
〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding SD is almost the same as a year ago (-3 funds, -2% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 61% buying

94 buying59 selling
Last quarter: 94 funds were net buyers (27 opened a brand new position + 67 added to an existing one). Only 59 were sellers (44 trimmed + 15 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈

More new buyers each quarter (+10 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new SD position: 24 → 21 → 17 → 27. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

■ 57% conviction (2yr+) ■ 27% medium ■ 16% new
92 out of 161 hedge funds have held SD 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.

Value +31% but shares only +5% — price-driven

Value
+31%
Shares
+5%
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +31%, but actual share count only changed +5%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
➡️

Steady discovery — ~27 new funds/quarter

27 → 24 → 21 → 17 → 27 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 24 → 21 → 17 → 27. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 66% of holders stayed 2+ years

■ 66% veterans ■ 14% 1-2yr ■ 20% new
Of 166 current holders: 109 (66%) 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.
🏆

Elite ownership — 41% AUM from top-100 funds

41% from top-100 AUM funds
39 of 161 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 41% of total institutional value in SD. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.3
out of 10
Low Exit Risk

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.
