📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added CORZ 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 momentum flip.

At the ownership peak (99% of max)
99% of all-time peak
365 hedge funds hold CORZ 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 classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
📶

Buying through price weakness — shares +14%, value -92%
