Hedge Funds Are Betting On LTC Properties Inc (LTC)


Article preview image

Most investors tend to think that hedge funds and other asset managers are worthless, as they cannot beat even simple index fund portfolios. In fact, most people expect hedge funds to compete with and outperform the bull market that we have witnessed in recent years. However, hedge funds are generally partially hedged and aim at delivering attractive risk-adjusted returns rather than following the ups and downs of equity markets hoping that they will outperform the broader market. Our research shows that certain hedge funds do have great stock picking skills (and we can identify these hedge funds in advance pretty accurately), so let’s take a glance at the smart money sentiment towards LTC Properties Inc (NYSE:LTC).

LTC Properties Inc (NYSE:LTC) investors should be aware of an increase in activity from the world's largest hedge funds lately. LTC Properties Inc (NYSE:LTC) was in 10 hedge funds' portfolios at the end of June. The all time high for this statistic is 15. There were 7 hedge funds in our database with LTC positions at the end of the first quarter. Our calculations also showed that LTC isn't among the 30 most popular stocks among hedge funds (click for Q2 rankings).

In the financial world there are a large number of tools investors have at their disposal to grade stocks. A pair of the most under-the-radar tools are hedge fund and insider trading indicators. We have shown that, historically, those who follow the top picks of the best fund managers can outperform the broader indices by a solid amount. Insider Monkey's monthly stock picks returned 185.4% since March 2017 and outperformed the S&P 500 ETFs by more than 79 percentage points (see the details here). That's why we believe hedge fund sentiment is a useful indicator that investors should pay attention to.
