📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added KSTR 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 momentum flip.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
12 hedge funds hold KSTR 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 — +140% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+7 new funds entered over the past year (+140% 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 buyers than sellers — 77% buying
10 buying3 selling
Last quarter: 10 funds were net buyers (8 opened a brand new position + 2 added to an existing one). Only 3 were sellers (1 trimmed + 2 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+8 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new KSTR position: 2 → 7 → 0 → 8. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
📌
Mixed — 33% long-term, 58% new
■ 33% conviction (2yr+)
■ 8% medium
■ 58% new
Of the 12 current holders: 4 (33%) held >2 years, 1 held 1–2 years, and 7 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~8 new funds/quarter
3 → 2 → 7 → 0 → 8 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 7 → 0 → 8. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 58% of holders entered in last year
■ 42% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 58% new
Of 12 current holders: 7 (58%) entered in the past year, only 5 (42%) 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.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 4% AUM from top-100
4% from top-100 AUM funds
4 of 12 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 4% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.3/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
