📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their RA positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (98% of max)
98% of all-time peak
115 hedge funds hold RA 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.
📶
Steady growth — +6% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+6 new funds entered over the past year (+6% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 55% buying
53 buying44 selling
Last quarter: 53 funds bought or added vs 44 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.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-7 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 14 → 12 → 17 → 10. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔒
58% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 58% conviction (2yr+)
■ 25% medium
■ 17% new
67 out of 115 hedge funds have held RA for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +19%, value -6%
Last quarter: funds added +19% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -6%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~10 new funds/quarter
17 → 14 → 12 → 17 → 10 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 14 → 12 → 17 → 10. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.

Veteran-anchored — 63% veterans vs 23% newcomers
■ 63% veterans
■ 15% 1-2yr
■ 23% new
Entry-cohort mix of 115 holders: 72 (63%) are 2+ year veterans, 17 entered 1–2 years ago, and 26 (23%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆
Elite ownership — 61% AUM from top-100 funds
61% from top-100 AUM funds
12 of 115 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 61% of total institutional value in RA. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
Exit risk score 3.4/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
