Institutional Ownership Trends

fuboTV Inc. (FUBO) — Ownership Profile

Institutional ownership of fuboTV Inc. has risen modestly to 46.03% as of the most recent quarter, reflecting a net increase of 6.37 percentage points since the prior reporting period. The rise is limited to a single consecutive quarter of accumulation and does not meet the three‑quarter threshold for sustained buying, while the investor base stands at 161 holders, indicating a relatively stable pool of institutional participants.

Ownership Overview

FUBO

The current ownership level places fuboTV in a moderately institutionalized range—above the lightly‑held threshold (<40%) but well below the heavily‑institutionalized mark (>90%). The single‑quarter uptick suggests some recent interest, yet the lack of sustained accumulation means the signal is tentative. A stable count of 161 institutional investors points to consistent participation without significant inflows or exits.

Position Flow Analysis

fuboTV Inc. (FUBO) — Position Flows

The position flow metrics for fuboTV Inc. (FUBO) indicate a pronounced net outflow from the investor base. A current flow ratio of 0.28 falls well below the 0.7 threshold, signaling significant distribution, while the conviction ratio of 0.24 is under the 0.4 cutoff, suggesting that existing holders are trimming their positions. The latest net flow of -170 further confirms that both new investors and incumbent shareholders are withdrawing capital from the stock.

Position Flow Metrics

FUBO

Institutions appear to be exiting rather than initiating or adding to positions, as reflected by the low flow ratio and modest negative conviction. The combination of a 0.28 flow ratio and 0.24 conviction ratio points to both reduced buying pressure from new entrants and active selling by current holders, reinforcing a bearish short‑term sentiment.

Float & Options Context

fuboTV Inc. (FUBO) — Float & Options

FuboTV Inc. (FUBO) exhibits a put/call ratio of 3.52, indicating that market participants are writing roughly three and a half times more puts than calls. This level is well above the 1.0 bearish threshold and has been rising for at least three consecutive quarters, suggesting increasing hedging or downside speculation among options traders. Institutional ownership stands at 46.03%, implying an estimated free float of 53.97%—a moderate share that does not constrain liquidity but also leaves a sizable portion of shares in the hands of non‑institutional investors.

Float & Options Overview

FUBO

The elevated and climbing put/call ratio signals prevailing bearish sentiment, likely reflecting concerns about subscriber growth or cash burn within the streaming sector. While the float is moderate at roughly 54%, it remains ample enough to absorb trading pressure, reducing the risk of a short‑squeeze scenario; however, the combination of strong downside options positioning and a sizable non‑institutional holder base could amplify price volatility if negative news materializes.

Insider Trading Patterns

fuboTV Inc. (FUBO) — Insider Activity

In the past 12 months, insiders of fuboTV Inc. have executed 39 sell transactions totaling $24.4 million and no purchases, yielding a buy/sell value ratio of 0.0—well below the 0.2 threshold that flags heavy insider selling. The most material sales were by CEO David Gandler, who sold 1.65 M shares on Jan 7 2025 for $9.12 million and 1.43 M shares on Jan 6 2025 for $7.14 million, together accounting for roughly 73% of total insider sell value; the COO also sold 403,847 shares on Jan 7 2025 worth $2.43 million.

Insider Activity Summary

FUBO

The concentration of sales among C‑suite executives, particularly the CEO’s back‑to‑back large disposals, suggests a bearish signal that is not readily explained by routine compensation cycles. With no insider purchases to offset the outsized sell pressure, there is a clear divergence between insider actions and any positive sentiment, potentially indicating limited confidence in near‑term price appreciation.

Smart Money Summary

fuboTV Inc. (FUBO) — Summary & Implications

Institutional ownership of fuboTV Inc. stands at 46.03%, having risen by 6.37 percentage points over the most recent quarter, indicating a notable accumulation of shares by large investors. However, the flow classification labels this as a "significant distribution," reflecting net selling pressure despite the higher ownership level, and the conviction metric is low at 0.24, suggesting weak confidence among institutions. Insider activity aligns with the institutional trend, showing a zero balance of insider buying versus selling, which points to routine or compensation‑related disposals rather than strategic exits; the concurrent rise in the put/call ratio to 3.52 reinforces a bearish sentiment among options traders.

Key Takeaways

Institutional ownership increased but is classified as a significant distribution, indicating net share sales despite higher stake.

FUBO
