📉
Selling streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds reduced or closed their TROO positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
📊
High ownership — 75% of 3.0Y peak
75% of all-time peak
6 funds currently hold this stock — 75% of the 3.0-year high of 8 funds (reached 2025 Q1). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶
Steady growth — +20% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+1 new funds entered over the past year (+20% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction. The peak was reached in just 2 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 57% buying
4 buying3 selling
Last quarter: 4 funds bought or added vs 3 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.

■ 50% medium
■ 17% new
Of the 6 current holders: 2 (33%) held >2 years, 3 held 1–2 years, and 1 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💰
Value +218% but shares only +28% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +218%, but actual share count only changed +28%. The gap is explained by the stock's price rising — not new buying. Strong value growth with weak share growth means the rally is price momentum, not fresh institutional demand.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~2 new funds/quarter
3 → 3 → 2 → 3 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 2 → 3 → 2. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 67% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 67% veterans
■ 17% 1-2yr
■ 17% new
Of 6 current holders: 4 (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.
🏆
Elite ownership — 60% AUM from top-100 funds
60% from top-100 AUM funds
2 of 6 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 60% of total institutional value in TROO. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.
Exit risk score 2.2/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
