Smart Money Signals — TTGT

Based on 100 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

📉

Selling streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their TTGT 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 — 74% of 3.0Y peak

74% of all-time peak
100 funds currently hold this stock — 74% of the 3.0-year high of 136 funds (reached 2025 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 20% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
25 fewer hedge funds hold TTGT compared to a year ago (-20% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 45% buying

55 buying66 selling
Last quarter: 66 funds reduced or exited vs 55 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~19 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 23 → 40 → 21 → 19. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄

Mostly new holders — 35% entered in last year

5% conviction (2yr+) 60% medium 35% new
Only 5 funds (5%) 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.
💎

Buying through price weakness — shares +9%, value -22%

Value
-21%
Shares
+8%
Last quarter: funds added +9% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -22%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

29 → 23 → 40 → 21 → 19 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 23 → 40 → 21 → 19. TTGT is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
📊

Mixed cohorts — 4% veterans, 46% new entrants

4% veterans 50% 1-2yr 46% new
Of 100 current holders: 4 (4%) held 2+ years, 50 held 1–2 years, 46 (46%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

Strong quality — 21% AUM from major funds

21% from top-100 AUM funds
32 of 100 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 21% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
2.8
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 2.8/10 — 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.
