📈
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.
📊
High ownership — 79% of 3.0Y peak
79% of all-time peak
11 funds currently hold this stock — 79% of the 3.0-year high of 14 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉
Outflows — 8% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
1 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-8% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 70% buying
7 buying3 selling
Last quarter: 7 funds were net buyers (4 opened a brand new position + 3 added to an existing one). Only 3 were sellers (1 trimmed + 2 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~4 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 1 → 8 → 1 → 4. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌
Mixed — 36% long-term, 55% new
■ 36% conviction (2yr+)
■ 9% medium
■ 55% new
Of the 11 current holders: 4 (36%) held >2 years, 1 held 1–2 years, and 6 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -11%, value -45%
Last quarter: funds added -11% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -45%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
6 → 1 → 8 → 1 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 1 → 8 → 1 → 4. 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.
🌱
Early stage — 55% of holders entered in last year
■ 27% veterans
■ 18% 1-2yr
■ 55% new
Of 11 current holders: 6 (55%) entered in the past year, only 3 (27%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
✅
Strong quality — 27% from major AUM funds
27% from top-100 AUM funds
3 of 11 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. A meaningful share of the ownership base comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 3.3/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
