📈 Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, 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.
🏔️ At the ownership peak (100% of max)
159 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.
📶 Steady growth — +14% more funds vs a year ago
+20 new funds entered over the past year (+14% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢 More buyers than sellers — 60% buying
Last quarter: 102 funds were net buyers (38 opened a brand new position + 64 added to an existing one). Only 69 were sellers (42 trimmed + 27 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈 More new buyers each quarter (+9 vs last Q)
Funds opening this position for the first time: 38 → 23 → 29 → 38. A growing number of new institutional buyers means the stock is still being discovered — the opportunity hasn't been fully priced in.
🔒 44% of holders stayed for 2+ years
70 out of 159 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.
