📉
Selling streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed this position than added to it. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams deciding to exit.
🔻
Below peak — only 2% of 3.0Y high
2% of all-time peak
Only 2 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 83 funds at 2020 Q3 — just 2% 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 — 98% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
80 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-98% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 40% buying
2 buying3 selling
Last quarter: 3 funds reduced or exited vs 2 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 — ~2 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 6 → 13 → 0 → 2. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
16 → 6 → 13 → 0 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 6 → 13 → 0 → 2. 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 1.0/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
