📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, 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.
🔻
Below peak — only 50% of 2.2Y high
50% of all-time peak
Only 7 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 14 funds at 2025 Q1 — just 50% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉
Outflows — 36% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
4 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-36% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 57% buying
4 buying3 selling
