📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added DAX 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.
📊
High ownership — 93% of 3.0Y peak
93% of all-time peak
52 funds currently hold this stock — 93% of the 3.0-year high of 56 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +174% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+33 new funds entered over the past year (+174% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 51% buying
24 buying23 selling
Last quarter: 24 funds bought or added vs 23 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.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+6 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new DAX position: 16 → 28 → 6 → 12. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
📌
Mixed — 29% long-term, 48% new
■ 29% conviction (2yr+)
■ 23% medium
■ 48% new
Of the 52 current holders: 15 (29%) held >2 years, 12 held 1–2 years, and 25 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
4 → 16 → 28 → 6 → 12 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 16 → 28 → 6 → 12. 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.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 45% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 45% veterans
■ 6% 1-2yr
■ 49% new
Of 53 current holders: 24 (45%) 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.

Smaller funds dominant — 12% AUM from top-100
12% from top-100 AUM funds
9 of 52 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 12% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.7/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
