📉

📊

High ownership — 92% of 3.0Y peak

92% of all-time peak

155 funds currently hold this stock — 92% of the 3.0-year high of 168 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.

〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q

🟠

More sellers than buyers — 46% buying

69 buying82 selling

Last quarter: 82 funds reduced or exited vs 69 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.

⚠️

Fewer new buyers each quarter (-7 vs last Q)

new funds entering per quarter

Funds opening this position for the first time: 20 → 37 → 29 → 22. 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.

🔒

57% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 57% conviction (2yr+) ■ 26% medium ■ 17% new

88 out of 155 hedge funds have held ECVT 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 -2%, value -96%

Value

-95%

-1%

Last quarter: funds added -2% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -96%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

➡️

Steady discovery — ~22 new funds/quarter

32 → 20 → 37 → 29 → 22 new funds/Q

New funds entering each quarter: 20 → 37 → 29 → 22. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

🏛️

Deep conviction — 63% of holders stayed 2+ years

■ 63% veterans ■ 15% 1-2yr ■ 21% new

Of 155 current holders: 98 (63%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.

✅

Strong quality — 34% AUM from major funds

34% from top-100 AUM funds

34 of 155 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 34% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

3.2

out of 10

Low Exit Risk

Exit risk score 3.2/10 — 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.
