📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added HKD 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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
16 hedge funds hold HKD 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 classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +100% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+8 new funds entered over the past year (+100% 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. The peak was reached in just 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 71% buying
12 buying5 selling
Last quarter: 12 funds were net buyers (8 opened a brand new position + 4 added to an existing one). Only 5 were sellers (3 trimmed + 2 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
Funds opening a new HKD position: 8 → 2 → 2 → 8. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
📌
Mixed — 38% long-term, 44% new
■ 38% conviction (2yr+)
■ 19% medium
■ 44% new
Of the 16 current holders: 6 (38%) held >2 years, 3 held 1–2 years, and 7 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 +3888% but shares only +116% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +3888%, but actual share count only changed +116%. 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.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~8 new funds/quarter
0 → 8 → 2 → 2 → 8 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 8 → 2 → 2 → 8. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️
Veteran-anchored — 56% veterans vs 44% newcomers
■ 56% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 44% new
Entry-cohort mix of 16 holders: 9 (56%) are 2+ year veterans, 0 entered 1–2 years ago, and 7 (44%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 1% AUM from top-100
1% from top-100 AUM funds
3 of 16 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 1% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.3/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
