Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added GLOV 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.

86% of all-time peak

📶

■ 34% medium
■ 24% new
16 out of 38 hedge funds have held GLOV 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.
⚠️
Saturation — most institutions already know this story
7 → 14 → 12 → 1 → 10 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 14 → 12 → 1 → 10. 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.

■ 37% new
Entry-cohort mix of 38 holders: 19 (50%) are 2+ year veterans, 5 entered 1–2 years ago, and 14 (37%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.
