📉
Selling streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed this position than added to it. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams deciding to exit.
🔻
Below peak — only 63% of 3.0Y high
63% of all-time peak
Only 12 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 19 funds at 2024 Q2 — just 63% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉
Outflows — 25% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
4 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-25% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 43% buying
3 buying4 selling
Last quarter: 4 funds reduced or exited vs 3 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 — ~2 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter

🔒
67% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 67% conviction (2yr+)
■ 17% medium
■ 17% new
8 out of 12 hedge funds have held this stock for over 2 years without selling. Long-term holders are harder to shake out during market dips — they represent a stable ownership base that reduces the risk of sudden mass selling.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -4%, value -83%
Last quarter: funds added -4% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -83%. 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
0 → 3 → 2 → 0 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 2 → 0 → 2. 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.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 67% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 67% veterans
■ 17% 1-2yr
■ 17% new
Of 12 current holders: 8 (67%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 17% top-100 AUM
17% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 2 of 12 current holders rank in the top 100 by AUM. The stock is held mostly by smaller and mid-sized funds — the largest institutional players haven't yet built significant positions.
Exit risk score 1.9/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
