📈
Buying streak — 7 quarters in a row
For 7 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added EVEX 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 momentum flip.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
124 hedge funds hold EVEX 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.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +61% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+47 new funds entered over the past year (+61% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 68% buying
95 buying45 selling
Last quarter: 95 funds were net buyers (32 opened a brand new position + 63 added to an existing one). Only 45 were sellers (22 trimmed + 23 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-9 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 16 → 17 → 41 → 32. 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.
📌
Mixed — 27% long-term, 38% new
■ 27% conviction (2yr+)
■ 35% medium
■ 38% new
Of the 124 current holders: 33 (27%) held >2 years, 44 held 1–2 years, and 47 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +14%, value -84%
Last quarter: funds added +14% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -84%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
25 → 16 → 17 → 41 → 32 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 16 → 17 → 41 → 32. 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.
📊
Mixed cohorts — 37% veterans, 47% new entrants
■ 37% veterans
■ 16% 1-2yr
■ 47% new
Of 131 current holders: 48 (37%) held 2+ years, 21 held 1–2 years, 62 (47%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
✅
Strong quality — 35% AUM from major funds
35% from top-100 AUM funds
30 of 124 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 35% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.9/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
