fund count last 6Q

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +11%, value -17%
Last quarter: funds added +11% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -17%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
2 → 2 → 2 → 1 → 0 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 2 → 1 → 0. Far fewer institutions are entering now vs. a year ago. When the pool of potential new buyers shrinks this fast, future price support from institutional inflows weakens significantly.

■ 58% veterans
■ 25% 1-2yr
■ 17% new
Of 12 current holders: 7 (58%) 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.
