🔻
Below peak — only 58% of 3.0Y high
58% of all-time peak
Only 7 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 12 funds at 2025 Q2 — just 58% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉
Outflows — 36% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
4 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-36% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
