At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
31 hedge funds hold DTF 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 — +29% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+7 new funds entered over the past year (+29% 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. The peak was reached in just 2 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 70% buying
16 buying7 selling
Last quarter: 16 funds were net buyers (4 opened a brand new position + 12 added to an existing one). Only 7 were sellers (3 trimmed + 4 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
