📈
Buying streak — 2 quarters in a row
For 2 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added EDC 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
33 hedge funds hold EDC 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 — +74% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+14 new funds entered over the past year (+74% 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 4 quarters from the low — a sharp move.
🟢
More buyers than sellers — 62% buying
20 buying12 selling
Last quarter: 20 funds were net buyers (11 opened a brand new position + 9 added to an existing one). Only 12 were sellers (7 trimmed + 5 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~11 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 9 → 1 → 9 → 11. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌
Mixed — 36% long-term, 33% new
■ 36% conviction (2yr+)
■ 30% medium
■ 33% new
Of the 33 current holders: 12 (36%) held >2 years, 10 held 1–2 years, and 11 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💰
Value +69% but shares only +8% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +69%, but actual share count only changed +8%. 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.
📈
Growing discovery — still being found
3 → 9 → 1 → 9 → 11 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 9 → 1 → 9 → 11. A growing number of institutions are discovering EDC each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
🏛️
Veteran-anchored — 54% veterans vs 38% newcomers
■ 54% veterans
■ 8% 1-2yr
■ 38% new
Entry-cohort mix of 39 holders: 21 (54%) are 2+ year veterans, 3 entered 1–2 years ago, and 15 (38%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
✅
Strong quality — 33% AUM from major funds
33% from top-100 AUM funds
6 of 31 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 33% 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 4.7/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
