Based on 80 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
📉 Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed this position than added to it. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams deciding to exit.
🔻 Below peak — only 69% of 3.0Y high
Only 80 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 116 funds at 2024 Q3 — just 69% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉 Outflows — 22% fewer funds vs a year ago
22 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-22% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟠 More sellers than buyers — 41% buying
Last quarter: 53 funds reduced or exited vs 37 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
⚠️ Fewer new buyers each quarter (-8 vs last Q)
Funds opening this position for the first time: 11 → 7 → 16 → 8. 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.
🔒 66% of holders stayed for 2+ years
53 out of 80 hedge funds have held this stock for over 2 years without selling. Long-term holders are harder to shake out during market dips — they represent a stable ownership base that reduces the risk of sudden mass selling.
