📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added CPN 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.
🔻
Below peak — only 67% of 3.0Y high
67% of all-time peak
Only 2 funds hold CPN today versus a peak of 3 funds at 2012 Q4 — just 67% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉
Outflows — 33% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
1 fewer hedge funds hold CPN compared to a year ago (-33% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 50% buying
1 buying1 selling
Last quarter: 1 funds bought or added vs 1 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~1 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 0 → 0 → 0 → 1. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
💰
Value +113% but shares only +42% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +113%, but actual share count only changed +42%. 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.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~1 new funds/quarter
2 → 0 → 0 → 0 → 1 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 0 → 0 → 0 → 1. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
Exit risk score 1.4/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
