➡️

No change last quarter

last 6Q
The number of hedge funds holding this stock didn't change last quarter. Neither a buying nor selling signal on its own — watch the next quarter for direction.
📊

High ownership — 76% of 3.0Y peak

76% of all-time peak
31 funds currently hold this stock — 76% of the 3.0-year high of 41 funds (reached 2024 Q4). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
📉

Outflows — 11% fewer funds vs a year ago

fund count last 6Q
4 fewer hedge funds hold KEQU compared to a year ago (-11% decline). When institutions consistently reduce their exposure, it's worth exploring the underlying fundamental reasons driving them away.
🟡

Slight buying edge — 58% buying

11 buying8 selling
Last quarter: 11 funds bought or added vs 8 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.
➡️

new funds entering per quarter

55% of holders stayed for 2+ years

■ 55% conviction (2yr+) ■ 26% medium ■ 19% new
17 out of 31 hedge funds have held KEQU 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

5 → 5 → 4 → 4 → 1 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 5 → 4 → 4 → 1. 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.

■ 55% veterans ■ 19% 1-2yr ■ 26% new
Entry-cohort mix of 31 holders: 17 (55%) are 2+ year veterans, 6 entered 1–2 years ago, and 8 (26%) joined within the past year. A veteran-weighted cap table skews toward institutional memory over fresh momentum.

Methodology note: these Smart Money cards use consecutive 13F disclosure snapshots, not trade-by-trade execution data. "Buying", "selling", "new holders", and "trimmed" refer to quarter-over-quarter changes in reported holders, aggregate shares, or disclosed position values between filings. They are useful for ownership regime analysis and crowding, but they do not imply exact trade timing on the filing date.
