📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added BOTJ 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
25 hedge funds hold BOTJ 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.
📶
Steady growth — +14% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+14% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 62% buying
10 buying6 selling
Last quarter: 10 funds were net buyers (5 opened a brand new position + 5 added to an existing one). Only 6 were sellers (5 trimmed + 1 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 2 → 2 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
72% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 72% conviction (2yr+)
■ 16% medium
■ 12% new
18 out of 25 hedge funds have held BOTJ 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 +37% but shares only +16% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +37%, but actual share count only changed +16%. 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.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~5 new funds/quarter
2 → 3 → 2 → 2 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 2 → 2 → 5. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 76% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 76% veterans
■ 12% 1-2yr
■ 12% new
Of 25 current holders: 19 (76%) 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 — 22% AUM from major funds
22% from top-100 AUM funds
10 of 25 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 22% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 3.4/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
