Based on 16 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly
➡️
No change last quarter
The number of hedge funds holding this stock didn't change last quarter. Neither a buying nor selling signal on its own — watch the next quarter for direction.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
16 hedge funds hold SOPA 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 — +33% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+4 new funds entered over the past year (+33% 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 — 50% buying
10 buying10 selling
Last quarter: 10 funds bought or added vs 10 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 — ~7 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 6 → 1 → 5 → 7. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 62% entered in last year
■ 6% conviction (2yr+)
■ 31% medium
■ 62% new
Only 1 funds (6%) 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 +67%, value -82%
Last quarter: funds added +67% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -82%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~7 new funds/quarter
3 → 6 → 1 → 5 → 7 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 6 → 1 → 5 → 7. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 56% of holders entered in last year
■ 6% veterans
■ 38% 1-2yr
■ 56% new
Of 16 current holders: 9 (56%) entered in the past year, only 1 (6%) 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.
🏆
Elite ownership — 48% AUM from top-100 funds
48% from top-100 AUM funds
5 of 16 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 48% of total institutional value in SOPA. 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 5.0/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
