🔻 Below peak — only 60% of 2.5Y high
Only 6 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 10 funds at 2024 Q2 — just 60% 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.
📶 Steady growth — +20% more funds vs a year ago
+1 new funds entered over the past year (+20% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction. The peak was reached in just 3 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟡 Slight buying edge — 50% buying
Last quarter: 2 funds bought or added vs 2 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 — ~0 new funds per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 2 → 2 → 1 → 0. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄 Mostly new holders — 33% entered in last year
Only 1 funds (17%) 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.
