📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their IRTC positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (99% of max)
99% of all-time peak
320 hedge funds hold IRTC right now — the highest count in 3.0 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 — +43% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+96 new funds entered over the past year (+43% 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 sellers than buyers — 47% buying
152 buying171 selling
Last quarter: 171 funds reduced or exited vs 152 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-10 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 52 → 67 → 58 → 48. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔒
56% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 56% conviction (2yr+)
■ 23% medium
■ 22% new
178 out of 320 hedge funds have held IRTC for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💰
Price up while funds trimmed (+3% value, -36% shares)
Last quarter: total value of institutional IRTC holdings rose +3% even though funds reduced share count by 36%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~48 new funds/quarter
36 → 52 → 67 → 58 → 48 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 52 → 67 → 58 → 48. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 65% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 65% veterans
■ 9% 1-2yr
■ 25% new
Of 327 current holders: 213 (65%) 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.
✅
Strong quality — 37% AUM from major funds
37% from top-100 AUM funds
40 of 320 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 37% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.2/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
