📈
Buying streak — 3 quarters in a row
For 3 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added BOF 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
25 hedge funds hold BOF 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 — +67% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+10 new funds entered over the past year (+67% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 57% buying
13 buying10 selling
Last quarter: 13 funds bought or added vs 10 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.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~5 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 3 → 9 → 9 → 5. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 56% entered in last year
■ 20% conviction (2yr+)
■ 24% medium
■ 56% new
Only 5 funds (20%) 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.
💰
Value +111% but shares only +52% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +111%, but actual share count only changed +52%. 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 — ~5 new funds/quarter
3 → 3 → 9 → 9 → 5 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 3 → 9 → 9 → 5. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 60% of holders entered in last year
■ 16% veterans
■ 24% 1-2yr
■ 60% new
Of 25 current holders: 15 (60%) entered in the past year, only 4 (16%) 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.
✅
Strong quality — 22% AUM from major funds
22% from top-100 AUM funds
8 of 25 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 22% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 5.4/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
