Based on 23 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
📈 Buying streak — 4 quarters in a row
For 4 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.
🔻 Below peak — only 52% of 3.0Y high
Only 23 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 44 funds at 2001 Q4 — just 52% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
🚀 Fast accumulation — +2200% more funds vs a year ago
+22 new funds entered over the past year (+2200% 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 — 64% buying
Last quarter: 9 funds were net buyers (5 opened a brand new position + 4 added to an existing one). Only 5 were sellers (5 trimmed + 0 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️ Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 16 → 3 → 3 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌 Mixed — 30% long-term, 30% new
Of the 23 current holders: 7 (30%) held >2 years, 9 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.
