📈
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 (99% of max)
99% of all-time peak
68 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 — +21% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+12 new funds entered over the past year (+21% 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 — 60% buying
36 buying24 selling
Last quarter: 36 funds were net buyers (8 opened a brand new position + 28 added to an existing one). Only 24 were sellers (20 trimmed + 4 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+6 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 14 → 8 → 2 → 8. A growing number of new institutional buyers means the stock is still being discovered — the opportunity hasn't been fully priced in.
🔒
41% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 41% conviction (2yr+)
■ 44% medium
■ 15% new
28 out of 68 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
8 → 14 → 8 → 2 → 8 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 14 → 8 → 2 → 8. 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.

Smaller funds dominant — 4% top-100 AUM
4% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 3 of 68 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 3.4/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
