Smart Money Signals — WF

Based on 198 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · updated quarterly

📈

Buying streak — 11 quarters in a row

last 6Q
For 11 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added WF 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 (100% of max)

100% of all-time peak
198 hedge funds hold WF 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.
🚀

Fast accumulation — +45% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+61 new funds entered over the past year (+45% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.
🟢

More buyers than sellers — 74% buying

146 buying51 selling
Last quarter: 146 funds were net buyers (27 opened a brand new position + 119 added to an existing one). Only 51 were sellers (27 trimmed + 24 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-11 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 22 → 36 → 38 → 27. 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.
🔒

41% of holders stayed for 2+ years

41% conviction (2yr+) 29% medium 30% new
81 out of 198 hedge funds have held WF 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 +30%, value +13%

Value
+12%
Shares
+29%
Last quarter: funds added +30% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +13%. 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

28 → 22 → 36 → 38 → 27 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 22 → 36 → 38 → 27. A growing number of institutions are discovering WF each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 45% veterans vs 39% newcomers

45% veterans 16% 1-2yr 39% new
Entry-cohort mix of 198 holders: 89 (45%) are 2+ year veterans, 31 entered 1–2 years ago, and 78 (39%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆

Elite ownership — 63% AUM from top-100 funds

63% from top-100 AUM funds
33 of 198 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 63% of total institutional value in WF. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
4.4
out of 10
Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.4/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.

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.
