🔻
Below peak — only 65% of 1.5Y high
65% of all-time peak
Only 20 funds hold GLACF today versus a peak of 31 funds at 2024 Q3 — just 65% 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 — 17% fewer funds vs a year ago

🟠
More sellers than buyers — 44% buying
7 buying9 selling

💎
