📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added this stock 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 trade.
🔻
Below peak — only 40% of 1.5Y high
40% of all-time peak
Only 2 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 5 funds at 2024 Q4 — just 40% 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 — 60% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
3 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-60% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 50% buying
1 buying1 selling
Last quarter: 1 funds bought or added vs 1 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 — ~1 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 0 → 4 → 0 → 1. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 50% entered in last year
■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 50% medium
■ 50% new
Only 0 funds (0%) 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 +310% but shares only +228% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +310%, but actual share count only changed +228%. 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
5 → 0 → 4 → 0 → 1 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 0 → 4 → 0 → 1. 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.
🌱
Early stage — 100% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 100% new
Of 2 current holders: 2 (100%) entered in the past year, only 0 (0%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 0% top-100 AUM
0% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 0 of 2 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 1.2/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
