📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their CRTC positions than added to them. Sustained institutional selling is a meaningful warning sign — these are professionals with deep research teams collectively deciding to exit.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (96% of max)
96% of all-time peak
26 hedge funds hold CRTC right now — the highest count in 2.8 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 — +30% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+6 new funds entered over the past year (+30% 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.
🟠
More sellers than buyers — 43% buying
12 buying16 selling
Last quarter: 16 funds reduced or exited vs 12 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-8 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 2 → 4 → 10 → 2. Each quarter fewer new institutions are entering. This usually means most funds that wanted in are already in — the stock is well-known but the pool of potential new buyers is shrinking.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 35% entered in last year
■ 12% conviction (2yr+)
■ 54% medium
■ 35% new
Only 3 funds (12%) 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.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~2 new funds/quarter
7 → 2 → 4 → 10 → 2 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 2 → 4 → 10 → 2. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
📊
Mixed cohorts — 4% veterans, 50% new entrants

■ 46% 1-2yr
■ 50% new
Of 26 current holders: 1 (4%) held 2+ years, 12 held 1–2 years, 13 (50%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.7/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
