Buying streak — 4 quarters in a row
For 4 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
73 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 — +38% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+20 new funds entered over the past year (+38% 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 — 62% buying
36 buying22 selling
Last quarter: 36 funds were net buyers (14 opened a brand new position + 22 added to an existing one). Only 22 were sellers (17 trimmed + 5 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.

💰
Value +20% but shares only +3% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +20%, but actual share count only changed +3%. 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.

■ 8% 1-2yr
■ 21% new

🏆
Elite ownership — 45% AUM from top-100 funds
45% from top-100 AUM funds
20 of 73 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 45% of total institutional value in this stock. When the biggest players hold the majority of a position, it reflects deep institutional conviction — large funds have the most resources for due diligence and the most at stake.
Exit risk score 3.9/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
