📈
Buying streak — 8 quarters in a row
For 8 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added NAK 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
164 hedge funds hold NAK 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 — +53% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+57 new funds entered over the past year (+53% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 54% buying
88 buying76 selling
Last quarter: 88 funds bought or added vs 76 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 (+7 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new NAK position: 36 → 30 → 36 → 43. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
📌
Mixed — 37% long-term, 35% new
■ 37% conviction (2yr+)
■ 28% medium
■ 35% new
Of the 164 current holders: 60 (37%) held >2 years, 46 held 1–2 years, and 58 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💰
Value +107% but shares only +26% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +107%, but actual share count only changed +26%. 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.
📈
Growing discovery — still being found
24 → 36 → 30 → 36 → 43 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 36 → 30 → 36 → 43. A growing number of institutions are discovering NAK each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 49% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 49% veterans
■ 10% 1-2yr
■ 41% new
Of 177 current holders: 87 (49%) 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.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 2% AUM from top-100
2% from top-100 AUM funds
11 of 164 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 2% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.4/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
