Qihoo 360 Technology Co Ltd (NYSE:QIHU) shareholders have witnessed a decrease in enthusiasm from smart money lately.
If you’d ask most market participants, hedge funds are perceived as underperforming, outdated investment vehicles of the past. While there are more than 8000 funds in operation at present, we at Insider Monkey hone in on the crème de la crème of this club, close to 450 funds. It is widely believed that this group oversees the majority of all hedge funds’ total asset base, and by watching their best picks, we have brought to light a few investment strategies that have historically outperformed Mr. Market. Our small-cap hedge fund strategy outstripped the S&P 500 index by 18 percentage points per annum for a decade in our back tests, and since we’ve began to sharing our picks with our subscribers at the end of August 2012, we have beaten the S&P 500 index by 24 percentage points in 7 months (explore the details and some picks here).
Just as key, bullish insider trading sentiment is another way to parse down the world of equities. Just as you’d expect, there are a number of stimuli for an insider to get rid of shares of his or her company, but only one, very clear reason why they would behave bullishly. Several academic studies have demonstrated the valuable potential of this tactic if piggybackers understand where to look (learn more here).
Consequently, it’s important to take a glance at the key action encompassing Qihoo 360 Technology Co Ltd (NYSE:QIHU).

Because Qihoo 360 Technology Co Ltd (NYSE:QIHU) has experienced a declination in interest from hedge fund managers, it’s safe to say that there were a few hedge funds who were dropping their positions entirely heading into 2013.
