29% of all-time peak
Only 40 funds hold LPSN today versus a peak of 138 funds at 2023 Q2 — just 29% of the maximum. Low institutional ownership can mean the stock is out of favor, but it also means there's a large pool of potential buyers if sentiment turns.
📉
Outflows — 44% fewer funds vs a year ago
