📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, 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 56% of 2.5Y high
56% of all-time peak
Only 15 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 27 funds at 2024 Q3 — just 56% 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 — +25% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+25% 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. The peak was reached in just 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 73% buying
8 buying3 selling
Last quarter: 8 funds were net buyers (5 opened a brand new position + 3 added to an existing one). Only 3 were sellers (1 trimmed + 2 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 5 → 2 → 2 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 27% entered in last year
■ 20% conviction (2yr+)
■ 53% medium
■ 27% new
Only 3 funds (20%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -2%, value -82%
Last quarter: funds added -2% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -82%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~5 new funds/quarter
3 → 5 → 2 → 2 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 5 → 2 → 2 → 5. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

Elite ownership — 67% from top-100 AUM funds
67% from top-100 AUM funds
10 of 15 current holders are among the 100 largest hedge funds by AUM. When the biggest players own a stock, it reflects deep institutional conviction — large funds have the most resources for due diligence and the most at stake.
Exit risk score 1.5/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
