60% of all-time peak
Only 3 funds hold IWFG today versus a peak of 5 funds at 2025 Q3 — just 60% 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.
📉
Outflows — 25% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
