Based on 404 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 their GPK positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊
High ownership — 85% of 3.0Y peak
85% of all-time peak
404 funds currently hold this stock — 85% of the 3.0-year high of 474 funds (reached 2024 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉
Outflows — 15% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
70 fewer hedge funds hold GPK compared to a year ago (-15% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 52% buying
240 buying225 selling
Last quarter: 240 funds bought or added vs 225 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 (+8 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new GPK position: 53 → 48 → 77 → 85. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒
65% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 65% conviction (2yr+)
■ 18% medium
■ 18% new
261 out of 404 hedge funds have held GPK 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +6%, value -18%
Last quarter: funds added +6% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -18%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
64 → 53 → 48 → 77 → 85 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 53 → 48 → 77 → 85. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 68% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 68% veterans
■ 13% 1-2yr
■ 19% new
Of 410 current holders: 279 (68%) 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 — 50% AUM from top-100 funds
50% from top-100 AUM funds
42 of 404 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 50% of total institutional value in GPK. 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 2.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
