No change last quarter

🏔️

At the ownership peak (100% of max)

100% of all-time peak
144 hedge funds hold DSTL 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 — +6% more funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
+8 new funds entered over the past year (+6% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 51% buying

72 buying70 selling
Last quarter: 72 funds bought or added vs 70 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.
➡️

📊

Peak discovery — momentum slowing

16 → 13 → 27 → 15 → 17 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 13 → 27 → 15 → 17. DSTL is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 57% veterans vs 26% newcomers

57% veterans 17% 1-2yr 26% new
Entry-cohort mix of 144 holders: 82 (57%) are 2+ year veterans, 25 entered 1–2 years ago, and 37 (26%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

3.7
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.

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.
