📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added XDEC 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 momentum flip.

94% of all-time peak

💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +7%, value -9%
Last quarter: funds added +7% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -9%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
9 → 13 → 7 → 7 → 8 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 13 → 7 → 7 → 8. XDEC is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
