From the 13F filings of the 83 funds Hunch tracks, not of every institution: each fund's shares of FUTU at its latest quarter end against the quarter before, as filed (long positions only, options left out), the quarter before put on the latest quarter's share count across a split. A fund files 45 days after its quarter ends, so some have a newer quarter than others. Value is at the quarter end. Norges Bank filed its 13F for Q1 2026 confidentially, with no holdings made public, so its row compares Q2 2026 with Q4 2025.
Are insiders buying or selling?
No officer or director bought or sold FUTU on the open market in the 12 months to Nov 12, 2026.
