📈
Buying streak — 4 quarters in a row
For 4 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added KULR 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 (96% of max)
96% of all-time peak
90 hedge funds hold KULR 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 — +38% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+25 new funds entered over the past year (+38% 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.
🟡
Slight buying edge — 52% buying
57 buying52 selling
Last quarter: 57 funds bought or added vs 52 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.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+9 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new KULR position: 19 → 18 → 22 → 31. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 48% entered in last year
■ 24% conviction (2yr+)
■ 28% medium
■ 48% new
Only 22 funds (24%) have held >2 years. The majority of current holders are relatively new to the position. New holders tend to sell faster when prices drop — a shallow conviction base that could amplify any sell-off.
💰
Value +65% but shares only +3% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +65%, but actual share count only changed +3%. 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
24 → 19 → 18 → 22 → 31 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 19 → 18 → 22 → 31. A growing number of institutions are discovering KULR each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
📊
Mixed cohorts — 34% veterans, 48% new entrants
■ 34% veterans
■ 18% 1-2yr
■ 48% new
Of 96 current holders: 33 (34%) held 2+ years, 17 held 1–2 years, 46 (48%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
🏆
Elite ownership — 65% AUM from top-100 funds
65% from top-100 AUM funds
28 of 88 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 65% of total institutional value in KULR. When the biggest players dominate the cap table, it signifies deep institutional support — since mega-funds deploy the most rigorous due diligence and capital.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.4/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
