At the ownership peak (98% of max)
98% of all-time peak
127 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.

🟠
More sellers than buyers — 46% buying
57 buying66 selling

⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-14 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 11 → 9 → 35 → 21. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.

■ 57% conviction (2yr+)
■ 17% medium
■ 25% new

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
17 → 11 → 9 → 35 → 21 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 11 → 9 → 35 → 21. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️

■ 61% veterans
■ 10% 1-2yr
■ 29% new
Of 128 current holders: 78 (61%) 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 24 of 127 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 3.8/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
