📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added RFDA 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 momentum flip.
📊
High ownership — 93% of 3.0Y peak
93% of all-time peak
26 funds currently hold this stock — 93% of the 3.0-year high of 28 funds (reached 2023 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶
Steady growth — +8% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+2 new funds entered over the past year (+8% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🔴

■ 73% conviction (2yr+)
■ 15% medium

⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
5 → 0 → 4 → 0 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 0 → 4 → 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.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 69% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 69% veterans
■ 4% 1-2yr
■ 27% new
Of 26 current holders: 18 (69%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.

14% from top-100 AUM funds
