📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added LIXT 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
19 hedge funds hold LIXT 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 — +90% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+9 new funds entered over the past year (+90% 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 — 70% buying
14 buying6 selling
Last quarter: 14 funds were net buyers (10 opened a brand new position + 4 added to an existing one). Only 6 were sellers (1 trimmed + 5 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+6 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new LIXT position: 8 → 5 → 4 → 10. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 53% entered in last year
■ 21% conviction (2yr+)
■ 26% medium
■ 53% new
Only 4 funds (21%) 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.
💰
Value +535% but shares only +170% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +535%, but actual share count only changed +170%. 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 — ~10 new funds/quarter
3 → 8 → 5 → 4 → 10 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 8 → 5 → 4 → 10. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 58% of holders entered in last year
■ 32% veterans
■ 11% 1-2yr
■ 58% new
Of 19 current holders: 11 (58%) entered in the past year, only 6 (32%) 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 — 17% AUM from top-100
17% from top-100 AUM funds
6 of 19 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 17% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.6/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
