Based on 16 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
📈 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 30% of 3.0Y high
Only 16 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 54 funds at 1999 Q2 — just 30% 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.
🚀 Fast accumulation — +100% more funds vs a year ago
+8 new funds entered over the past year (+100% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.
🟡 Slight buying edge — 56% buying
Last quarter: 9 funds bought or added vs 7 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 — ~5 new funds per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 6 → 7 → 3 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄 Mostly new holders — 44% entered in last year
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.
