📈
Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added LBGJ 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
6 hedge funds hold LBGJ right now — the highest count in 1.2 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.
📶
Steady growth — +20% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 5Q
+1 new funds entered over the past year (+20% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction. The peak was reached in just 2 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🔴
Heavy selling pressure — only 38% buying
3 buying5 selling
Last quarter: 5 funds sold vs only 3 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~3 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 0 → 0 → 4 → 3. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
💰
Value +63% but shares only +42% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +63%, but actual share count only changed +42%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~3 new funds/quarter
0 → 0 → 4 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 0 → 0 → 4 → 3. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.6/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
