📈 Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added this stock 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 trade.
🔻 Below peak — only 50% of 3.0Y high
Only 22 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 44 funds at 2015 Q2 — just 50% 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 — 33% fewer funds vs a year ago
11 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-33% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟢 More buyers than sellers — 100% buying
Last quarter: 21 funds were net buyers (21 opened a brand new position + 0 added to an existing one). Only 0 were sellers (0 trimmed + 0 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈 More new buyers each quarter (+20 vs last Q)
Funds opening this position for the first time: 5 → 6 → 1 → 21. A growing number of new institutional buyers means the stock is still being discovered — the opportunity hasn't been fully priced in.
🔄 Mostly new holders — 86% entered in last year
Only 3 funds (14%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
