📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their IQSM positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊

86% of all-time peak
6 funds currently hold this stock — 86% of the 3.0-year high of 7 funds (reached 2025 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +100% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+100% 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.
🔴

1 buying6 selling

Exit risk score 7.8/10 — multiple crowding signals converge. Institutional ownership is at 86% of its all-time high — near peak crowding. Selling pressure exceeds buying: only 14% of active funds buying. Crowded trades can unwind fast — a single catalyst can trigger a cascade.
