📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their AIFU positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊
High ownership — 77% of 1.5Y peak
77% of all-time peak
10 funds currently hold this stock — 77% of the 1.5-year high of 13 funds (reached 2025 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +900% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+9 new funds entered over the past year (+900% 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. The peak was reached in just 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 46% buying
6 buying7 selling
Last quarter: 7 funds reduced or exited vs 6 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-6 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 0 → 8 → 6 → 0. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 80% entered in last year
■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 20% medium
■ 80% new
Only 0 funds (0%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -21%, value -59%
Last quarter: funds added -21% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -59%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
0 → 0 → 8 → 6 → 0 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 0 → 8 → 6 → 0. AIFU is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🌱
Early stage — 91% of holders entered in last year
■ 9% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 91% new
Of 11 current holders: 10 (91%) entered in the past year, only 1 (9%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 10% AUM from top-100
10% from top-100 AUM funds
3 of 10 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 10% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 6.0/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
