📈
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.
🔻
Below peak — only 56% of 3.0Y high
56% of all-time peak
Only 5 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 9 funds at 2023 Q1 — just 56% 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 — 29% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
2 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-29% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟡
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.
➡️

🔒
60% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 60% conviction (2yr+)
■ 0% medium
■ 40% new
3 out of 5 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 +1108% but shares only +545% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +1108%, but actual share count only changed +545%. 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
0 → 2 → 0 → 1 → 1 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 0 → 1 → 1. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

■ 40% veterans
■ 20% 1-2yr
■ 40% new
Of 5 current holders: 2 (40%) 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.
🏆
Elite ownership — 40% from top-100 AUM funds
40% from top-100 AUM funds
2 of 5 current holders are among the 100 largest hedge funds by AUM. When the biggest players own a stock, it reflects deep institutional conviction — large funds have the most resources for due diligence and the most at stake.
Exit risk score 1.8/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
