At the ownership peak (97% of max)
97% of all-time peak
35 hedge funds hold TACK 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.
