📈
Buying streak — 7 quarters in a row
For 7 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added EVLN 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
46 hedge funds hold EVLN right now — the highest count in 2.0 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 — +119% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+25 new funds entered over the past year (+119% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 52% buying
27 buying25 selling
Last quarter: 27 funds bought or added vs 25 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.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-8 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 10 → 8 → 17 → 9. 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.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 57% entered in last year
■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 43% medium
■ 57% new
Only 0 funds (0%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~9 new funds/quarter
6 → 10 → 8 → 17 → 9 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 10 → 8 → 17 → 9. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 72% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 28% 1-2yr
■ 72% new
Of 46 current holders: 33 (72%) entered in the past year, only 0 (0%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
✅
Strong quality — 32% AUM from major funds
32% from top-100 AUM funds
8 of 46 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 32% 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 5.9/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
