■ 65% conviction (2yr+)
■ 16% medium
■ 19% new

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -5%, value -35%
Last quarter: funds added -5% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -35%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.

■ 77% veterans
■ 2% 1-2yr
■ 21% new
Of 81 current holders: 62 (77%) 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.
✅
