📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their RFAI 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 40% of 1.5Y high
40% of all-time peak
Only 14 funds hold RFAI today versus a peak of 35 funds at 2024 Q4 — just 40% 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 — 60% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
