Based on 20 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly
📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added SINT 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 — 87% of 2.0Y peak
87% of all-time peak
20 funds currently hold this stock — 87% of the 2.0-year high of 23 funds (reached 2025 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +43% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+6 new funds entered over the past year (+43% 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. The peak was reached in just 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 55% buying
6 buying5 selling
Last quarter: 6 funds bought or added vs 5 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 — ~4 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 10 → 3 → 4. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 45% entered in last year
■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 55% medium
■ 45% new
Only 0 funds (0%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -22%, value -49%
Last quarter: funds added -22% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -49%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
6 → 3 → 10 → 3 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 10 → 3 → 4. 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.
🌱
Early stage — 55% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 45% 1-2yr
■ 55% new
Of 20 current holders: 11 (55%) entered in the past year, only 0 (0%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
✅
Strong quality — 22% AUM from major funds
22% from top-100 AUM funds
5 of 20 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 22% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 3.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
