Based on 14 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
➡️
No change last quarter
The number of hedge funds holding this stock didn't change last quarter. Neither a buying nor selling signal on its own — watch the next quarter for direction.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
14 hedge funds hold KAPA 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 — +180% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+9 new funds entered over the past year (+180% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 53% buying
8 buying7 selling
Last quarter: 8 funds bought or added vs 7 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 5 → 5 → 6 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 64% entered in last year
■ 7% conviction (2yr+)
■ 29% medium
■ 64% new
Only 1 funds (7%) 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 +92%, value +20%
Last quarter: funds added +92% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +20%. 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
4 → 5 → 5 → 6 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 5 → 5 → 6 → 5. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 79% of holders entered in last year
■ 7% veterans
■ 14% 1-2yr
■ 79% new
Of 14 current holders: 11 (79%) entered in the past year, only 1 (7%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
✅
Strong quality — 27% AUM from major funds
27% from top-100 AUM funds
4 of 14 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 27% 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 6.3/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
