Based on 8 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
➡️

The number of hedge funds holding this stock didn't change last quarter. Neither a buying nor selling signal on its own — watch the next quarter for direction.
🔻
Below peak — only 62% of 1.8Y high
62% of all-time peak
Only 8 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 13 funds at 2024 Q4 — just 62% 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 — 38% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
5 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-38% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.

8 buying3 selling

■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 62% medium
■ 38% new
Only 0 funds (0%) 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.
💎

Last quarter: funds added -3% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -50%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

11 → 1 → 3 → 1 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 1 → 3 → 1 → 3. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 62% of holders entered in last year
■ 12% veterans
■ 25% 1-2yr
■ 62% new
Of 8 current holders: 5 (62%) entered in the past year, only 1 (12%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 0% top-100 AUM
0% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 0 of 8 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.
