📈
Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added this stock 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 trade.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
36 hedge funds hold this stock 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 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +3500% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+35 new funds entered over the past year (+3500% 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 — 65% buying
20 buying11 selling
Last quarter: 20 funds were net buyers (13 opened a brand new position + 7 added to an existing one). Only 11 were sellers (4 trimmed + 7 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-17 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 0 → 0 → 30 → 13. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 92% entered in last year
■ 8% conviction (2yr+)
■ 0% medium
■ 92% new
Only 3 funds (8%) 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +217%, value -97%
Last quarter: funds added +217% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -97%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~13 new funds/quarter
0 → 0 → 0 → 30 → 13 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 0 → 0 → 30 → 13. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 92% of holders entered in last year
■ 8% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 92% new
Of 36 current holders: 33 (92%) entered in the past year, only 3 (8%) 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.
✅
Strong quality — 22% from major AUM funds
22% from top-100 AUM funds
8 of 36 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. A meaningful share of the ownership base comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 7.3/10 — multiple crowding signals converge. Institutional ownership is at 100% of its all-time high. Crowded trades can unwind fast — a single catalyst can trigger a cascade.
