📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added OPTT 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
69 hedge funds hold OPTT 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 — +64% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+27 new funds entered over the past year (+64% 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 — 68% buying
42 buying20 selling
Last quarter: 42 funds were net buyers (25 opened a brand new position + 17 added to an existing one). Only 20 were sellers (10 trimmed + 10 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+14 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new OPTT position: 10 → 17 → 11 → 25. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 46% entered in last year
■ 22% conviction (2yr+)
■ 32% medium
■ 46% new
Only 15 funds (22%) 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 +63% but shares only +41% — price-driven
Last quarter: the total dollar value of institutional holdings rose +63%, but actual share count only changed +41%. 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
10 → 10 → 17 → 11 → 25 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 10 → 17 → 11 → 25. A growing number of institutions are discovering OPTT each quarter. The narrative is still spreading — leaving room for ongoing capital accumulation.
📊
Mixed cohorts — 36% veterans, 49% new entrants
■ 36% veterans
■ 15% 1-2yr
■ 49% new
Of 74 current holders: 27 (36%) held 2+ years, 11 held 1–2 years, 36 (49%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
✅
Strong quality — 37% AUM from major funds
37% from top-100 AUM funds
17 of 69 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, accounting for 37% of total institutional value held. A meaningful share of the ownership value comes from the most well-resourced institutions.

Moderate Exit Risk
Exit risk score 4.7/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
