Based on 49 hedge funds · latest filing: 2025 Q4 · updated quarterly
📈 Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, 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.
🏔️ At the ownership peak (100% of max)
49 hedge funds hold this stock right now — the highest count in 2.8 years. When ownership is this concentrated, any bad news can trigger a chain reaction: one big fund sells, others follow. This is a 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
📶 Steady growth — +17% more funds vs a year ago
+7 new funds entered over the past year (+17% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟠 More sellers than buyers — 40% buying
Last quarter: 26 funds reduced or exited vs 17 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 — ~8 new funds per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 2 → 11 → 8. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌 Mixed — 31% long-term, 33% new
Of the 49 current holders: 15 (31%) held >2 years, 18 held 1–2 years, and 16 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
