Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their FMAG positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.

At the ownership peak (97% of max)
97% of all-time peak
33 hedge funds hold FMAG 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 — +27% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+7 new funds entered over the past year (+27% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 50% buying
16 buying16 selling
