■ 53% conviction (2yr+)
■ 18% medium
■ 29% new

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -10%, value -100%
Last quarter: funds added -10% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -100%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

■ 59% veterans
■ 12% 1-2yr
■ 29% new

📋
Smaller funds dominant — 12% top-100 AUM
12% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 2 of 17 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 3.1/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
