📉
Selling streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds reduced or closed their DLY 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 (97% of max)
97% of all-time peak
94 hedge funds hold DLY 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 — +34% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+24 new funds entered over the past year (+34% 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 — 52% buying
45 buying42 selling
Last quarter: 45 funds bought or added vs 42 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.
⚠️
Fewer new buyers each quarter (-11 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 14 → 19 → 22 → 11. 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.
🔒
46% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 46% conviction (2yr+)
■ 24% medium
■ 30% new
43 out of 94 hedge funds have held DLY for over 2 years without selling. Long-term investors are generally harder to shake out during market stress, creating a stable ownership base that limits the risk of sudden capitulation.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +7%, value -12%
Last quarter: funds added +7% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -12%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~11 new funds/quarter
8 → 14 → 19 → 22 → 11 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 14 → 19 → 22 → 11. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🏛️
Deep conviction — 50% of holders stayed 2+ years
■ 50% veterans
■ 17% 1-2yr
■ 33% new
Of 94 current holders: 47 (50%) have held for over 2 years without selling. These are not momentum buyers — they have lived through drawdowns and stayed. A large veteran base acts as a stabilizing force during selloffs.
🏆
Elite ownership — 62% AUM from top-100 funds
62% from top-100 AUM funds
11 of 94 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 62% of total institutional value in DLY. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.0/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
