📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their BKYI positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🔻
Below peak — only 69% of 2.5Y high
69% of all-time peak
Only 9 funds hold BKYI today versus a peak of 13 funds at 2024 Q4 — just 69% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉
Outflows — 31% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
4 fewer hedge funds hold BKYI compared to a year ago (-31% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🔴

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +151%, value +135%
Last quarter: funds added +151% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +135%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
