📈
Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, 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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
86 hedge funds hold this stock 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 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +34% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+22 new funds entered over the past year (+34% 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.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 66% buying
52 buying27 selling
Last quarter: 52 funds were net buyers (22 opened a brand new position + 30 added to an existing one). Only 27 were sellers (17 trimmed + 10 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+6 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter

■ 38% conviction (2yr+)
■ 27% medium
■ 35% new
Of the 86 current holders: 33 (38%) held >2 years, 23 held 1–2 years, and 30 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💰
Value +48% but shares only +17% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +48%, but actual share count only changed +17%. 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.
📈
Growing discovery — still being found

New funds entering each quarter: 16 → 14 → 16 → 22. A growing number of institutions are discovering this stock each quarter. The idea is still spreading — there is room for more buyers to enter.

■ 48% veterans
■ 14% 1-2yr
■ 38% new
Of 86 current holders: 41 (48%) 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.
