Based on 90 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
📈
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.
📊
High ownership — 91% of 3.0Y peak
91% of all-time peak
90 funds currently hold this stock — 91% of the 3.0-year high of 99 funds (reached 2024 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉
Outflows — 9% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
9 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-9% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 47% buying
36 buying40 selling
Last quarter: 40 funds reduced or exited vs 36 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.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~16 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 8 → 11 → 15 → 16. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
64% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 64% conviction (2yr+)
■ 19% medium
■ 17% new
58 out of 90 hedge funds have held this stock for over 2 years without selling. Long-term holders are harder to shake out during market dips — they represent a stable ownership base that reduces the risk of sudden mass selling.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +3%, value -82%
Last quarter: funds added +3% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -82%. 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
17 → 8 → 11 → 15 → 16 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 8 → 11 → 15 → 16. 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 — 71% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 71% veterans
■ 11% 1-2yr
■ 18% new
Of 90 current holders: 64 (71%) 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.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 9% top-100 AUM
9% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 8 of 90 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. The stock is held mostly by smaller and mid-sized funds — the largest institutional players haven't yet built significant positions.
Exit risk score 3.1/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
