📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added FRD 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
64 hedge funds hold FRD 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 — +49% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+21 new funds entered over the past year (+49% 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 buyers than sellers — 63% buying
34 buying20 selling
Last quarter: 34 funds were net buyers (13 opened a brand new position + 21 added to an existing one). Only 20 were sellers (14 trimmed + 6 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+9 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new FRD position: 15 → 15 → 4 → 13. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔒
52% of holders stayed for 2+ years
■ 52% conviction (2yr+)
■ 23% medium
■ 25% new
33 out of 64 hedge funds have held FRD 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 -1%, value -17%
Last quarter: funds added -1% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -17%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
5 → 15 → 15 → 4 → 13 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 15 → 15 → 4 → 13. Far fewer institutions are entering now vs. a year ago. When the pool of potential new buyers shrinks this fast, future price support from institutional inflows weakens significantly.
🏛️
Veteran-anchored — 55% veterans vs 36% newcomers
■ 55% veterans
■ 9% 1-2yr
■ 36% new
Entry-cohort mix of 64 holders: 35 (55%) are 2+ year veterans, 6 entered 1–2 years ago, and 23 (36%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
✅
Strong quality — 31% AUM from major funds
31% from top-100 AUM funds
23 of 62 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 31% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.
Exit risk score 3.9/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
