📈
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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
144 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 — +27% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+31 new funds entered over the past year (+27% 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 — 63% buying
77 buying45 selling
Last quarter: 77 funds were net buyers (43 opened a brand new position + 34 added to an existing one). Only 45 were sellers (28 trimmed + 17 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+18 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 22 → 43 → 25 → 43. A growing number of new institutional buyers means the stock is still being discovered — the opportunity hasn't been fully priced in.

■ 29% conviction (2yr+)
■ 31% medium
■ 40% new
Of the 144 current holders: 42 (29%) held >2 years, 44 held 1–2 years, and 58 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 +59% but shares only +4% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +59%, but actual share count only changed +4%. 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.

24 → 22 → 43 → 25 → 43 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 22 → 43 → 25 → 43. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
