📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added DIM 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.

At the ownership peak (98% of max)
98% of all-time peak
48 hedge funds hold DIM 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 classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
📶
Steady growth — +20% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q

🟡
Slight buying edge — 53% buying
23 buying20 selling
Last quarter: 23 funds bought or added vs 20 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.
