At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
55 hedge funds hold this stock 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 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
📶
Steady growth — +6% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+6% 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 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 49% buying
20 buying21 selling

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -1%, value -31%

■ 4% 1-2yr

Smaller funds dominant — 15% top-100 AUM
15% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 8 of 55 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. The stock is held mostly by smaller and mid-sized funds — the largest institutional players haven't yet built significant positions.
Exit risk score 3.8/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
