📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added YQQQ 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.
📊
High ownership — 89% of 2.0Y peak
89% of all-time peak
8 funds currently hold this stock — 89% of the 2.0-year high of 9 funds (reached 2025 Q3). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📶
Steady growth — +14% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+1 new funds entered over the past year (+14% 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 3 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟢

7 buying4 selling

■ 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +90%, value +46%
Last quarter: funds added +90% more shares while total portfolio value only changed +46%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~4 new funds/quarter
3 → 4 → 3 → 4 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 3 → 4 → 4. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 62% of holders entered in last year
■ 0% veterans
■ 38% 1-2yr
■ 62% new
Of 8 current holders: 5 (62%) 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.
📋
