📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their EADSY positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🔻
Below peak — only 68% of 3.0Y high
68% of all-time peak
Only 26 funds hold EADSY today versus a peak of 38 funds at 2025 Q4 — just 68% 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.
📶
Steady growth — +4% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+1 new funds entered over the past year (+4% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🔴
Heavy selling pressure — only 38% buying
13 buying21 selling
Last quarter: 21 funds sold vs only 13 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~3 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 7 → 10 → 7 → 3. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒

■ 46% conviction (2yr+)
■ 31% medium
■ 23% new
12 out of 26 hedge funds have held EADSY for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -19%, value -45%
Last quarter: funds added -19% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -45%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
6 → 7 → 10 → 7 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 7 → 10 → 7 → 3. Far fewer institutions are entering now vs. a year ago. When the pool of potential new buyers shrinks this fast, future price support from institutional inflows weakens significantly.
🏛️
Veteran-anchored — 46% veterans vs 35% newcomers
■ 46% veterans
■ 19% 1-2yr
■ 35% new
Entry-cohort mix of 26 holders: 12 (46%) are 2+ year veterans, 5 entered 1–2 years ago, and 9 (35%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 9% AUM from top-100
9% from top-100 AUM funds
2 of 26 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 9% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
Exit risk score 2.6/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
