📉

Selling streak — 2 quarters in a row

last 6Q

🏔️

At the ownership peak (98% of max)

98% of all-time peak
184 hedge funds hold PNTG 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.
〰️

Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year

fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding PNTG is almost the same as a year ago (+2 funds, +1% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🟠

More sellers than buyers — 47% buying

86 buying96 selling
Last quarter: 96 funds reduced or exited vs 86 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
➡️

Steady new buyers — ~26 new funds per quarter

new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 23 → 42 → 27 → 26. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.

🏛️

Veteran-anchored — 62% veterans vs 23% newcomers

■ 62% veterans ■ 15% 1-2yr ■ 23% new
Entry-cohort mix of 185 holders: 115 (62%) are 2+ year veterans, 28 entered 1–2 years ago, and 42 (23%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

Methodology note: these Smart Money cards use consecutive 13F disclosure snapshots, not trade-by-trade execution data. "Buying", "selling", "new holders", and "trimmed" refer to quarter-over-quarter changes in reported holders, aggregate shares, or disclosed position values between filings. They are useful for ownership regime analysis and crowding, but they do not imply exact trade timing on the filing date.
