📈
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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
71 hedge funds hold this stock 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 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +73% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+30 new funds entered over the past year (+73% 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 — 66% buying
49 buying25 selling
Last quarter: 49 funds were net buyers (18 opened a brand new position + 31 added to an existing one). Only 25 were sellers (18 trimmed + 7 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+10 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 32 → 15 → 8 → 18. A growing number of new institutional buyers means the stock is still being discovered — the opportunity hasn't been fully priced in.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 38% entered in last year
■ 4% conviction (2yr+)
■ 58% medium
■ 38% new
Only 3 funds (4%) 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.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
12 → 32 → 15 → 8 → 18 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 32 → 15 → 8 → 18. 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.
🌱
Early stage — 72% of holders entered in last year
■ 7% veterans
■ 21% 1-2yr
■ 72% new
Of 71 current holders: 51 (72%) entered in the past year, only 5 (7%) 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 — 8% top-100 AUM
8% from top-100 AUM funds

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.3/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
