📈
Buying streak — 3 quarters in a row
For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added SEB 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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
204 hedge funds hold SEB 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.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +28% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+44 new funds entered over the past year (+28% YoY). That's a rapid rush of institutional money. Fast accumulation often signals a major thesis — but it also means the stock could fall quickly if that thesis breaks.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 55% buying
103 buying84 selling
Last quarter: 103 funds bought or added vs 84 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.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~39 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 21 → 33 → 44 → 39. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔒
48% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 48% conviction (2yr+)
■ 26% medium
■ 26% new
97 out of 204 hedge funds have held SEB 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.
💰
Value +37% but shares only +2% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +37%, but actual share count only changed +2%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
29 → 21 → 33 → 44 → 39 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 21 → 33 → 44 → 39. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
🏛️
Veteran-anchored — 55% veterans vs 30% newcomers
■ 55% veterans
■ 15% 1-2yr
■ 30% new
Entry-cohort mix of 204 holders: 113 (55%) are 2+ year veterans, 30 entered 1–2 years ago, and 61 (30%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆
Elite ownership — 49% AUM from top-100 funds
49% from top-100 AUM funds
42 of 204 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 49% of total institutional value in SEB. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.1/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
