📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added OARK 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.
🔻
Below peak — only 67% of 3.0Y high
67% of all-time peak
Only 10 funds hold OARK today versus a peak of 15 funds at 2025 Q4 — just 67% 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 — 23% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
3 fewer hedge funds hold OARK compared to a year ago (-23% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 55% buying
6 buying5 selling
Last quarter: 6 funds bought or added vs 5 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.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~4 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 7 → 1 → 4. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌
Mixed — 30% long-term, 30% new
■ 30% conviction (2yr+)
■ 40% medium
■ 30% new
Of the 10 current holders: 3 (30%) held >2 years, 4 held 1–2 years, and 3 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
6 → 3 → 7 → 1 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 7 → 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.
🏛️
Veteran-anchored — 70% veterans vs 30% newcomers
■ 70% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 30% new
Entry-cohort mix of 10 holders: 7 (70%) are 2+ year veterans, 0 entered 1–2 years ago, and 3 (30%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 0% AUM from top-100
0% from top-100 AUM funds
4 of 10 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 0% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
