📈
Buying streak — 3 quarters in a row
For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added PACS 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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
181 hedge funds hold PACS 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 classic 'crowded trade' — high popularity doesn't equal safety.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +32% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+44 new funds entered over the past year (+32% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 55% buying
107 buying89 selling
Last quarter: 107 funds bought or added vs 89 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.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+23 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new PACS position: 24 → 32 → 32 → 55. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 44% entered in last year
■ 6% conviction (2yr+)
■ 50% medium
■ 44% new
Only 10 funds (6%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💰
Value +194% but shares only +5% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +194%, but actual share count only changed +5%. 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.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
44 → 24 → 32 → 32 → 55 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 24 → 32 → 32 → 55. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
📊
Mixed cohorts — 5% veterans, 51% new entrants
■ 5% veterans
■ 44% 1-2yr
■ 51% new
Of 187 current holders: 10 (5%) held 2+ years, 82 held 1–2 years, 95 (51%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
✅
Strong quality — 39% AUM from major funds
39% from top-100 AUM funds
34 of 181 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 39% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.5/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
