📈
Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added this stock 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 trade.
🔻
Below peak — only 3% of 3.0Y high
3% of all-time peak
Only 4 funds hold this stock today versus a peak of 145 funds at 2019 Q1 — just 3% 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 — 97% fewer funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
141 fewer hedge funds hold this stock compared to a year ago (-97% decline). When institutions consistently reduce exposure, it's worth asking what they know that retail investors don't.

📈
Growing discovery — still being found
30 → 2 → 1 → 2 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 1 → 2 → 2. A growing number of institutions are discovering this stock each quarter. The idea is still spreading — there is room for more buyers to enter.
🌱
Early stage — 75% of holders entered in last year
■ 25% veterans
■ 0% 1-2yr
■ 75% new
Of 4 current holders: 3 (75%) entered in the past year, only 1 (25%) 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.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 0% top-100 AUM
0% from top-100 AUM funds
Only 0 of 4 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.
