📈
Buying streak — 4 quarters in a row
For 4 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added ACLX 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.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
238 hedge funds hold ACLX 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.
📶
Steady growth — +18% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+36 new funds entered over the past year (+18% YoY). Gradual, steady growth in institutional ownership is generally a healthy signal — not a speculative rush, but consistent conviction.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 55% buying
161 buying131 selling
Last quarter: 161 funds bought or added vs 131 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.

💰
Price up while funds trimmed (+54% value, -8% shares)
Last quarter: total value of institutional ACLX holdings rose +54% even though funds reduced share count by 8%. The stock price increased enough to offset the selling. Institutions are quietly trimming into price strength — watch for rotation.

Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
30 → 30 → 27 → 45 → 95 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 30 → 27 → 45 → 95. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
