📉
Selling streak — 4 quarters in a row
For 4 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their OABI positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊
High ownership — 79% of 3.0Y peak
79% of all-time peak
124 funds currently hold this stock — 79% of the 3.0-year high of 156 funds (reached 2024 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉
Outflows — 21% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
32 fewer hedge funds hold OABI compared to a year ago (-21% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 48% buying
57 buying62 selling
Last quarter: 62 funds reduced or exited vs 57 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~15 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 17 → 25 → 17 → 15. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
61% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 61% conviction (2yr+)
■ 23% medium
■ 15% new
76 out of 124 hedge funds have held OABI 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -9%, value -97%
Last quarter: funds added -9% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -97%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
16 → 17 → 25 → 17 → 15 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 17 → 25 → 17 → 15. OABI is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 65% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 65% veterans
■ 12% 1-2yr
■ 23% new
Of 125 current holders: 81 (65%) 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.
✅
Strong quality — 30% AUM from major funds
30% from top-100 AUM funds
24 of 124 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 30% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 2.4/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
