📈
Buying streak — 5 quarters in a row
For 5 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added ICOP 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
93 hedge funds hold ICOP right now — the highest count in 2.8 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 — +615% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+80 new funds entered over the past year (+615% 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 — 81% buying
80 buying19 selling
Last quarter: 80 funds were net buyers (60 opened a brand new position + 20 added to an existing one). Only 19 were sellers (5 trimmed + 14 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+34 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new ICOP position: 8 → 8 → 26 → 60. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 80% entered in last year
■ 2% conviction (2yr+)
■ 18% medium
■ 80% new
Only 2 funds (2%) 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +81%, value +55%
Last quarter: funds added +81% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +55%. 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
4 → 8 → 8 → 26 → 60 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 8 → 8 → 26 → 60. 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.
🌱
Early stage — 80% of holders entered in last year
■ 2% veterans
■ 18% 1-2yr
■ 80% new
Of 96 current holders: 77 (80%) entered in the past year, only 2 (2%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
✅
Strong quality — 38% AUM from major funds
38% from top-100 AUM funds
10 of 92 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 38% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 7.0/10 — multiple crowding signals converge. Institutional ownership is at 100% of its all-time high — near peak crowding. Crowded trades can unwind fast — a single catalyst can trigger a cascade.
