Buying streak — 5 quarters in a row
For 5 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added PICB 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
54 hedge funds hold PICB 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 — +54% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+19 new funds entered over the past year (+54% 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.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 76% buying
39 buying12 selling
Last quarter: 39 funds were net buyers (6 opened a brand new position + 33 added to an existing one). Only 12 were sellers (9 trimmed + 3 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~6 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 9 → 18 → 9 → 6. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
52% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 52% conviction (2yr+)
■ 17% medium
■ 31% new
28 out of 54 hedge funds have held PICB 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
4 → 9 → 18 → 9 → 6 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 9 → 18 → 9 → 6. 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.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 61% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 61% veterans
■ 2% 1-2yr
■ 37% new
Of 54 current holders: 33 (61%) 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.
