📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their YIBO positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🔻
Below peak — only 44% of 3.0Y high
44% of all-time peak
Only 4 funds hold YIBO today versus a peak of 9 funds at 2025 Q4 — just 44% 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.
〰️
Stable — ownership unchanged year-over-year
fund count last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding YIBO is almost the same as a year ago (+0 funds, +0% change). No significant rush to buy or sell — institutional backing is holding steady.
🔴
Heavy selling pressure — only 25% buying
2 buying6 selling
Last quarter: 6 funds sold vs only 2 buyers. This is widespread institutional distribution — not a few funds rebalancing, but a broad exit. High conviction bearish signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~0 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 1 → 4 → 3 → 0. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 50% entered in last year
■ 0% conviction (2yr+)
■ 50% medium
■ 50% new
Only 0 funds (0%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
2 → 1 → 4 → 3 → 0 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 1 → 4 → 3 → 0. YIBO is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🌱
Early stage — 75% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 25% 1-2yr
■ 75% new
Of 4 current holders: 3 (75%) entered in the past year, only 0 (0%) 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 — 17% AUM from top-100
17% from top-100 AUM funds
2 of 4 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 17% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
Exit risk score 3.1/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
