📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added MEGI 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
70 hedge funds hold MEGI 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.
📶
Steady growth — +11% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+7 new funds entered over the past year (+11% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 57% buying
39 buying29 selling
Last quarter: 39 funds bought or added vs 29 that reduced or exited. It's nearly a 50/50 split — some institutions are convinced, others are taking profits. This mixed picture is normal near price highs.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+6 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new MEGI position: 7 → 10 → 12 → 18. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒
46% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 46% conviction (2yr+)
■ 30% medium
■ 24% new
32 out of 70 hedge funds have held MEGI for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💰
Value +1505% but shares only +4% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +1505%, but actual share count only changed +4%. 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.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
16 → 7 → 10 → 12 → 18 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 7 → 10 → 12 → 18. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 54% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 54% veterans
■ 16% 1-2yr
■ 30% new
Of 70 current holders: 38 (54%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
🏆
Elite ownership — 96% AUM from top-100 funds
96% from top-100 AUM funds
9 of 70 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 96% of total institutional value in MEGI. 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 3.8/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
