📈
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 64% of 1.8Y high
64% of all-time peak
Only 7 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 11 funds at 2025 Q2 — just 64% 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.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +40% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+2 new funds entered over the past year (+40% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks. The peak was reached in just 3 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🔴
Heavy selling pressure — only 33% buying
3 buying6 selling
Last quarter: 6 funds sold vs only 3 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~3 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 7 → 4 → 2 → 3. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 57% entered in last year
■ 14% conviction (2yr+)
■ 29% medium
■ 57% new
Only 1 funds (14%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💰
Price up while funds trimmed (-67% value, -92% shares)
Last quarter: total value of institutional CRSH holdings rose -67% even though funds reduced share count by 92%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
3 → 7 → 4 → 2 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 7 → 4 → 2 → 3. 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.
🌱
Early stage — 86% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 14% 1-2yr
■ 86% new
Of 7 current holders: 6 (86%) entered in the past year, only 0 (0%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 14% top-100 AUM
14% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 1 of 7 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 3.5/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
