Based on 5 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, 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.
📊
High ownership — 71% of 3.0Y peak
71% of all-time peak
5 funds currently hold this stock — 71% of the 3.0-year high of 7 funds (reached 2025 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +25% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+1 new funds entered over the past year (+25% 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 — 75% buying
3 buying1 selling
Last quarter: 3 funds were net buyers (3 opened a brand new position + 0 added to an existing one). Only 1 were sellers (0 trimmed + 1 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~3 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 2 → 0 → 3. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 80% entered in last year
■ 20% conviction (2yr+)
■ 0% medium
■ 80% new
Only 1 funds (20%) 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.
💰
Value +167% but shares only +102% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +167%, but actual share count only changed +102%. 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.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
0 → 3 → 2 → 0 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 2 → 0 → 3. The stock is well-known in the hedge fund world but new entries are declining. The easy phase of institutional discovery may be behind us.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 60% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 60% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 40% new
Of 5 current holders: 3 (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.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 0% top-100 AUM
0% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 0 of 5 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. The stock is held mostly by smaller and mid-sized funds — the largest institutional players haven't yet built significant positions.
Exit risk score 3.6/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
