91% of all-time peak
264 funds currently hold this stock — 91% of the 3.0-year high of 289 funds (reached 2025 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 9% fewer funds vs a year ago

41 → 30 → 23 → 44 → 42 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 30 → 23 → 44 → 42. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.

■ 71% veterans ■ 14% 1-2yr ■ 15% new
Entry-cohort mix of 267 holders: 189 (71%) are 2+ year veterans, 37 entered 1–2 years ago, and 41 (15%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

Methodology note: these Smart Money cards use consecutive 13F disclosure snapshots, not trade-by-trade execution data. "Buying", "selling", "new holders", and "trimmed" refer to quarter-over-quarter changes in reported holders, aggregate shares, or disclosed position values between filings. They are useful for ownership regime analysis and crowding, but they do not imply exact trade timing on the filing date.
