📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added LOWV 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
20 hedge funds hold LOWV 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 — +122% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+11 new funds entered over the past year (+122% 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 — 89% buying
17 buying2 selling
Last quarter: 17 funds were net buyers (10 opened a brand new position + 7 added to an existing one). Only 2 were sellers (1 trimmed + 1 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+8 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new LOWV position: 3 → 1 → 2 → 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 — 55% entered in last year
■ 5% conviction (2yr+)
■ 40% medium
■ 55% new
Only 1 funds (5%) 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.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~10 new funds/quarter
5 → 3 → 1 → 2 → 10 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 1 → 2 → 10. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 80% of holders entered in last year
■ 10% veterans
■ 10% 1-2yr
■ 80% new
Of 20 current holders: 16 (80%) entered in the past year, only 2 (10%) 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 — 82% AUM from top-100 funds
82% from top-100 AUM funds
6 of 20 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 82% of total institutional value in LOWV. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.4/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
