Based on 197 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.
🏔️ At the ownership peak (98% of max)
197 hedge funds hold this stock 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 'crowded trade' — high ownership doesn't mean safe.
📶 Steady growth — +6% more funds vs a year ago
+11 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.
🟢 More buyers than sellers — 60% buying
Last quarter: 119 funds were net buyers (33 opened a brand new position + 86 added to an existing one). Only 80 were sellers (48 trimmed + 32 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️ Steady new buyers — ~33 new funds per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 37 → 42 → 32 → 33. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌 Mixed — 34% long-term, 24% new
Of the 197 current holders: 66 (34%) held >2 years, 84 held 1–2 years, and 47 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.
