📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added ABLV than sold it. That's a consistent pattern of professional buying — not a one-time trade. When institutions keep buying quarter after quarter, it usually means they see a multi-year opportunity, not just a short-term momentum flip.
🔻
Below peak — only 43% of 3.0Y high
43% of all-time peak
Only 3 funds hold ABLV today versus a peak of 7 funds at 2023 Q3 — just 43% 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 — 40% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
2 fewer hedge funds hold ABLV compared to a year ago (-40% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟢

💰
Value +915% but shares only +514% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +915%, but actual share count only changed +514%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.

■ 67% veterans
■ 33% 1-2yr
■ 0% new
Entry-cohort mix of 3 holders: 2 (67%) are 2+ year veterans, 1 entered 1–2 years ago, and 0 (0%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆
Elite ownership — 100% AUM from top-100 funds
100% from top-100 AUM funds
3 of 3 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 100% of total institutional value in ABLV. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
Exit risk score 1.0/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
