📈
Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 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
105 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.
〰️
Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year
fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding this stock is almost the same as a year ago (+0 funds, +0% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — the institutional base is holding steady.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 59% buying
58 buying40 selling
Last quarter: 58 funds bought or added vs 40 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.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~19 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter

📌
Mixed — 37% long-term, 25% new
■ 37% conviction (2yr+)
■ 38% medium
■ 25% new
Of the 105 current holders: 39 (37%) held >2 years, 40 held 1–2 years, and 26 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💰
Value +2055% but shares only +25% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +2055%, but actual share count only changed +25%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
20 → 8 → 11 → 18 → 19 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 8 → 11 → 18 → 19. 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.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 40% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 40% veterans
■ 30% 1-2yr
■ 30% new
Of 105 current holders: 42 (40%) 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.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 13% top-100 AUM
13% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 14 of 105 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. The stock is held mostly by smaller and mid-sized funds — the largest institutional players haven't yet built significant positions.
Exit risk score 3.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
