📈
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 — 70% of 3.0Y peak
70% of all-time peak
26 funds currently hold this stock — 70% of the 3.0-year high of 37 funds (reached 2023 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉
Outflows — 19% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
6 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-19% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🔴
Heavy selling pressure — only 33% buying
5 buying10 selling
Last quarter: 10 funds sold vs only 5 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~3 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 2 → 8 → 1 → 3. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
69% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 69% conviction (2yr+)
■ 23% medium
■ 8% new
18 out of 26 hedge funds have held this stock for over 2 years without selling. Long-term holders are harder to shake out during market dips — they represent a stable ownership base that reduces the risk of sudden mass selling.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -6%, value -100%
Last quarter: funds added -6% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -100%. 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
3 → 2 → 8 → 1 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 8 → 1 → 3. 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.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 73% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 73% veterans
■ 19% 1-2yr
■ 8% new
Of 26 current holders: 19 (73%) 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 — 19% top-100 AUM
19% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 5 of 26 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 2.5/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
