📈
Buying streak — 8 quarters in a row
For 8 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added ACNT 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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
75 hedge funds hold ACNT right now — the highest count in 3.0 years. When ownership is this concentrated, any bad news can trigger a chain reaction: one big fund sells, others follow. This is a classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +108% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+39 new funds entered over the past year (+108% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 59% buying
41 buying29 selling
Last quarter: 41 funds bought or added vs 29 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~13 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 6 → 26 → 15 → 13. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
47% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 47% conviction (2yr+)
■ 16% medium
■ 37% new
35 out of 75 hedge funds have held ACNT for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💰
Value +31% but shares only +4% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +31%, but actual share count only changed +4%. 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.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~13 new funds/quarter
7 → 6 → 26 → 15 → 13 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 6 → 26 → 15 → 13. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 60% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 60% veterans
■ 6% 1-2yr
■ 33% new
Of 78 current holders: 47 (60%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
✅
Strong quality — 36% AUM from major funds
36% from top-100 AUM funds
24 of 75 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 36% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.1/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
