📊
High ownership — 72% of 3.0Y peak
72% of all-time peak
13 funds currently hold this stock — 72% of the 3.0-year high of 18 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

fund count last 6Q
1 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-7% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 43% buying
3 buying4 selling
Last quarter: 4 funds reduced or exited vs 3 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.

🔒
62% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 62% conviction (2yr+)
■ 15% medium
■ 23% new
8 out of 13 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.
💰
Value +375% but shares only +31% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +375%, but actual share count only changed +31%. 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
5 → 1 → 5 → 1 → 0 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 1 → 5 → 1 → 0. 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 — 62% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 62% veterans
■ 8% 1-2yr
■ 31% new
Of 13 current holders: 8 (62%) 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 — 38% from major AUM funds
38% from top-100 AUM funds
5 of 13 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. A meaningful share of the ownership base comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 2.5/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
