Smart Money Signals — TNDM

Based on 272 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added TNDM 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 — 83% of 3.0Y peak

83% of all-time peak
272 funds currently hold this stock — 83% of the 3.0-year high of 328 funds (reached 2024 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding TNDM is almost the same as a year ago (-2 funds, -1% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 51% buying

141 buying134 selling
Last quarter: 141 funds bought or added vs 134 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 (-8 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 38 → 43 → 54 → 46. 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.
🔒

66% of holders stayed for 2+ years

66% conviction (2yr+) 18% medium 16% new
179 out of 272 hedge funds have held TNDM 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 +9%, value -9%

Value
-8%
Shares
+8%
Last quarter: funds added +9% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -9%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📈

Growing discovery — still being found

39 → 38 → 43 → 54 → 46 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 38 → 43 → 54 → 46. A growing number of institutions are discovering TNDM each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Deep conviction — 72% of holders stayed 2+ years

72% veterans 11% 1-2yr 17% new
Of 282 current holders: 203 (72%) 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.

Strong quality — 37% AUM from major funds

37% from top-100 AUM funds
52 of 272 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 37% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
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.
