📈
Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added KULR 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.

📶

Of the 79 current holders: 24 (30%) held >2 years, 21 held 1–2 years, and 34 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +5%, value -25%
Last quarter: funds added +5% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -25%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
40 → 35 → 24 → 19 → 17 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 35 → 24 → 19 → 17. KULR is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 41% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 41% veterans
■ 8% 1-2yr
■ 51% new
Of 86 current holders: 35 (41%) 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.
🏆
Elite ownership — 47% AUM from top-100 funds
47% from top-100 AUM funds
24 of 79 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 47% of total institutional value in KULR. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
Exit risk score 3.3/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
