📈 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)
51 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.
📶 Steady growth — +6% more funds vs a year ago
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+6% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟢 More buyers than sellers — 67% buying
Last quarter: 32 funds were net buyers (9 opened a brand new position + 23 added to an existing one). Only 16 were sellers (10 trimmed + 6 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️ Steady new buyers — ~9 new funds per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 4 → 6 → 5 → 9. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌 Mixed — 35% long-term, 25% new
Of the 51 current holders: 18 (35%) held >2 years, 20 held 1–2 years, and 13 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.
