📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added RYCEY 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
35 hedge funds hold RYCEY 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 — +40% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+10 new funds entered over the past year (+40% 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
21 buying10 selling
Last quarter: 21 funds were net buyers (10 opened a brand new position + 11 added to an existing one). Only 10 were sellers (5 trimmed + 5 sold completely). A clear majority buying is a strong confirmation signal.
📈
More new buyers each quarter (+7 vs last Q)
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening a new RYCEY position: 9 → 11 → 3 → 10. A growing influx of new institutional buyers means the asset is still gathering momentum — the consensus hasn't fully saturated yet.
📌

■ 29% conviction (2yr+)
■ 31% medium
■ 40% new
Of the 35 current holders: 10 (29%) held >2 years, 11 held 1–2 years, and 14 entered in the last year. A mixed base — the stock has long-term believers but also recent buyers who haven't been tested by a downturn yet.
💎
Buying through price weakness — shares -2%, value -59%
Last quarter: funds added -2% more shares while total portfolio value only changed -59%. Institutions were buying while the price was falling — a high-conviction accumulation signal. They're deliberately loading up on the dip.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
6 → 9 → 11 → 3 → 10 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 9 → 11 → 3 → 10. RYCEY is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
📊
