Buying streak — 3 quarters in a row
For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added ARWR 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
386 hedge funds hold ARWR 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 — +50% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+129 new funds entered over the past year (+50% 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.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 65% buying
254 buying134 selling
Last quarter: 254 funds were net buyers (132 opened a brand new position + 122 added to an existing one). Only 134 were sellers (105 trimmed + 29 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+72 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new ARWR position: 37 → 59 → 60 → 132. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒
52% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 52% conviction (2yr+)
■ 19% medium
■ 29% new
201 out of 386 hedge funds have held ARWR 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 +99% but shares only +6% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +99%, but actual share count only changed +6%. 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.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
43 → 37 → 59 → 60 → 132 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 37 → 59 → 60 → 132. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 65% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 65% veterans
■ 6% 1-2yr
■ 28% new
Of 402 current holders: 263 (65%) 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 — 28% AUM from major funds
28% from top-100 AUM funds
42 of 386 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 28% 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 4.3/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
