Buying streak — 5 quarters in a row
For 5 consecutive quarters, more hedge funds added PACS 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
214 hedge funds hold PACS 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 — +49% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+70 new funds entered over the past year (+49% 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 — 60% buying
144 buying96 selling
Last quarter: 144 funds were net buyers (72 opened a brand new position + 72 added to an existing one). Only 96 were sellers (49 trimmed + 47 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+17 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new PACS position: 32 → 33 → 55 → 72. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
🔄
Mostly new holders — 47% entered in last year
■ 5% conviction (2yr+)
■ 48% medium
■ 47% new
Only 10 funds (5%) 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.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares +1%, value -32%
Last quarter: funds added +1% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -32%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
🚀
Acceleration phase — new buyers rushing in
26 → 32 → 33 → 55 → 72 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 32 → 33 → 55 → 72. The pace of institutional discovery is accelerating sharply. This is the 'hot idea' phase — the thesis is being passed from fund to fund. You are not late — the accumulation wave is still building.
📊
Mixed cohorts — 4% veterans, 51% new entrants
■ 4% veterans
■ 46% 1-2yr
■ 51% new
Of 221 current holders: 8 (4%) held 2+ years, 101 held 1–2 years, 112 (51%) entered in the past year. Balanced distribution — some institutional memory, some recent momentum buyers.
🏆
Elite ownership — 48% AUM from top-100 funds
48% from top-100 AUM funds
49 of 212 holders are among the 100 largest funds by AUM, controlling 48% of total institutional value in PACS. 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 4.9/10 — some crowding factors present, but no critical concentration. Watch ownership trend over the next 1–2 quarters for direction.
