Based on 48 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly

➡️

No change last quarter

🏔️

At the ownership peak (96% of max)

96% of all-time peak
48 hedge funds hold EVX 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.
📉

Outflows — 4% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
2 fewer hedge funds hold EVX compared to a year ago (-4% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 54% buying

20 buying17 selling
Last quarter: 20 funds bought or added vs 17 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 — ~6 new funds per quarter

Deep conviction — 62% of holders stayed 2+ years

62% veterans 15% 1-2yr 23% new

🏆

Elite ownership — 43% AUM from top-100 funds

43% from top-100 AUM funds
9 of 48 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 43% of total institutional value in EVX. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
3.1
out of 10
Low Exit Risk
Exit risk score 3.1/10 — 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.
