📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added GNOM 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.
🔻
Below peak — only 60% of 3.0Y high
60% of all-time peak
Only 40 funds hold GNOM today versus a peak of 67 funds at 2024 Q4 — just 60% 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 — 30% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
17 fewer hedge funds hold GNOM compared to a year ago (-30% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 47% buying
16 buying18 selling
Last quarter: 18 funds reduced or exited vs 16 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.
