Based on 13 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q2 · 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
13 hedge funds hold WCEO 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 — +30% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+30% 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.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 40% buying
2 buying3 selling
Last quarter: 3 funds reduced or exited vs 2 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
Funds opening this position for the first time: 1 → 1 → 4 → 2. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌
Mixed — 38% long-term, 38% new
■ 38% conviction (2yr+)
■ 23% medium
■ 38% new
Of the 13 current holders: 5 (38%) held >2 years, 3 held 1–2 years, and 5 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 +54% but shares only +34% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +54%, but actual share count only changed +34%. 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
0 → 1 → 1 → 4 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 1 → 1 → 4 → 2. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️
Veteran-anchored — 46% veterans vs 38% newcomers
■ 46% veterans
■ 15% 1-2yr
■ 38% new
Entry-cohort mix of 13 holders: 6 (46%) are 2+ year veterans, 2 entered 1–2 years ago, and 5 (38%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
🏆
Elite ownership — 51% AUM from top-100 funds
51% from top-100 AUM funds
2 of 12 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 51% of total institutional value in WCEO. 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 5.1/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
