🔻
Below peak — only 62% of 3.0Y high
62% of all-time peak
Only 8 funds hold DSNKY today versus a peak of 13 funds at 2025 Q1 — just 62% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉
Outflows — 38% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
5 fewer hedge funds hold DSNKY compared to a year ago (-38% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 56% buying
