📈
Buying streak — 7 quarters in a row
For 7 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added FOXA 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
728 hedge funds hold FOXA 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 — +26% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+151 new funds entered over the past year (+26% 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 — 56% buying
398 buying315 selling
Last quarter: 398 funds bought or added vs 315 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.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+38 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new FOXA position: 126 → 111 → 90 → 128. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.

■ 60% conviction (2yr+)
■ 21% medium
■ 19% new
437 out of 728 hedge funds have held FOXA for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💰
Value +22% but shares only +5% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +22%, but actual share count only changed +5%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
➡️

127 → 126 → 111 → 90 → 128 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 126 → 111 → 90 → 128. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️

■ 67% veterans
■ 8% 1-2yr
■ 25% new
Of 749 current holders: 505 (67%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
🏆
Elite ownership — 49% AUM from top-100 funds
49% from top-100 AUM funds
43 of 728 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 49% of total institutional value in FOXA. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
Exit risk score 3.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
