Buying streak — 9 quarters in a row
For 9 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added FELG 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
200 hedge funds hold FELG 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 — +63% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+77 new funds entered over the past year (+63% 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 — 73% buying
132 buying50 selling
Last quarter: 132 funds were net buyers (39 opened a brand new position + 93 added to an existing one). Only 50 were sellers (37 trimmed + 13 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+10 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new FELG position: 27 → 35 → 29 → 39. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 40% entered in last year
■ 23% conviction (2yr+)
■ 37% medium
■ 40% new
Only 46 funds (23%) 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 — ~39 new funds/quarter
34 → 27 → 35 → 29 → 39 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 27 → 35 → 29 → 39. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 58% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 42% 1-2yr
■ 58% new
Of 200 current holders: 116 (58%) entered in the past year, only 1 (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 — 25% AUM from major funds
25% from top-100 AUM funds
11 of 200 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 25% 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 4.7/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
