📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their PMNT positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🔻
Below peak — only 67% of 3.0Y high
67% of all-time peak
Only 6 funds hold PMNT today versus a peak of 9 funds at 2025 Q4 — just 67% 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.
〰️
Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year
fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding PMNT is almost the same as a year ago (+0 funds, +0% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🔴
Heavy selling pressure — only 25% buying
2 buying6 selling
Last quarter: 6 funds sold vs only 2 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~1 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 4 → 3 → 1. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -6%, value -41%
Last quarter: funds added -6% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -41%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
2 → 3 → 4 → 3 → 1 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 4 → 3 → 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.
Exit risk score 3.0/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
