The 75.50 whaleScore reflects AUM. Smart-money read: net-bullish. Longview's $9.3B position and $177M net add is a defining signal for GD. BlackRock +$417M, FMR +$119M, Invesco +$122M, Geode +$104M represent active-manager adds to defense/aerospace exposure. Capital Research's -$569M is the only material active reduction -- possibly sector-rotation rather than thesis change on GD. The Vanguard three-way split shows passive-core continuity. Net read: moderately bullish on General Dynamics. Active-manager adds dominate despite Capital Research's outsized reduction. Longview's near-unchanged $9.3B position is itself a strong hodl signal.
