📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added LCAP 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
8 hedge funds hold LCAP right now — the highest count in 1.0 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.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 88% buying
7 buying1 selling
Last quarter: 7 funds were net buyers (4 opened a brand new position + 3 added to an existing one). Only 1 were sellers (1 trimmed + 0 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~4 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 4 → 1 → 4. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 88% entered in last year
■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 12% medium
■ 88% new
Only 0 funds (0%) 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.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
4 → 1 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 1 → 4. LCAP is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🌱
Early stage — 100% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 100% new
Of 8 current holders: 8 (100%) entered in the past year, only 0 (0%) 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.
🏆
Elite ownership — 67% AUM from top-100 funds
67% from top-100 AUM funds
4 of 8 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 67% of total institutional value in LCAP. 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 7.2/10 — multiple crowding signals converge. Institutional ownership is at 100% of its all-time high — near peak crowding. Crowded trades can unwind fast — a single catalyst can trigger a cascade.
