📈
Buying streak — 4 quarters in a row
For 4 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)
100% of all-time peak
146 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.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +82% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+66 new funds entered over the past year (+82% 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.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 68% buying
105 buying49 selling
Last quarter: 105 funds were net buyers (38 opened a brand new position + 67 added to an existing one). Only 49 were sellers (29 trimmed + 20 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-11 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 17 → 16 → 49 → 38. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 43% entered in last year
■ 18% conviction (2yr+)
■ 39% medium
■ 43% new
Only 26 funds (18%) 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.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
10 → 17 → 16 → 49 → 38 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 17 → 16 → 49 → 38. 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.
📊

■ 21% veterans
■ 32% 1-2yr
■ 46% new
Of 149 current holders: 32 (21%) held 2+ years, 48 held 1–2 years, 69 (46%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.2/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
