📈
Buying streak — 10 quarters in a row
For 10 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added L 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
701 hedge funds hold L 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 — +21% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+122 new funds entered over the past year (+21% 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 — 57% buying
352 buying264 selling
Last quarter: 352 funds bought or added vs 264 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.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+22 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new L position: 69 → 70 → 96 → 118. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒

■ 66% conviction (2yr+)
■ 17% medium
■ 17% new
463 out of 701 hedge funds have held L for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
71 → 69 → 70 → 96 → 118 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 69 → 70 → 96 → 118. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 68% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 68% veterans
■ 10% 1-2yr
■ 22% new
Of 707 current holders: 483 (68%) 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 — 63% AUM from top-100 funds
63% from top-100 AUM funds
40 of 701 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 63% of total institutional value in L. 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 3.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
