■ 24% conviction (2yr+)
■ 56% medium
■ 21% new
Only 8 funds (24%) 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
5 → 6 → 7 → 0 → 6 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 6 → 7 → 0 → 6. Far fewer institutions are entering now vs. a year ago. When the pool of potential new buyers shrinks this fast, future price support from institutional inflows weakens significantly.
