■ 50% conviction (2yr+)
■ 28% medium

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +176%, value +101%
Last quarter: funds added +176% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +101%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
5 → 2 → 8 → 2 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 8 → 2 → 3. Far fewer institutions are entering now vs. a year ago. When the pool of potential new buyers shrinks this fast, future price support from institutional inflows weakens significantly.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 61% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 61% veterans
■ 17% 1-2yr
■ 22% new
Of 18 current holders: 11 (61%) 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.
🏆
Elite ownership — 44% from top-100 AUM funds
44% from top-100 AUM funds
