📈
Buying streak — 6 quarters in a row
For 6 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added this stock 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 trade.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
427 hedge funds hold this stock 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 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +39% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+119 new funds entered over the past year (+39% 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 — 50% buying
220 buying216 selling
Last quarter: 220 funds bought or added vs 216 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.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-37 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 57 → 51 → 98 → 61. 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.
🔒

■ 53% conviction (2yr+)
■ 22% medium
■ 25% new
226 out of 427 hedge funds have held this stock for over 2 years without selling. Long-term holders are harder to shake out during market dips — they represent a stable ownership base that reduces the risk of sudden mass selling.
📈
Growing discovery — still being found
42 → 57 → 51 → 98 → 61 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 57 → 51 → 98 → 61. A growing number of institutions are discovering this stock each quarter. The idea is still spreading — there is room for more buyers to enter.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 59% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 59% veterans
■ 13% 1-2yr
■ 28% new
Of 432 current holders: 255 (59%) 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.
