Based on 11 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly
➡️
No change last quarter
The number of hedge funds holding this stock didn't change last quarter. Neither a buying nor selling signal on its own — watch the next quarter for direction.
🏔️
At the ownership peak (100% of max)
100% of all-time peak
11 hedge funds hold SHDG right now — the highest count in 2.8 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 — +57% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+4 new funds entered over the past year (+57% 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 sellers than buyers — 42% buying
5 buying7 selling
Last quarter: 7 funds reduced or exited vs 5 that bought or added. When more than half of active funds are selling, it's a caution flag — especially if the stock price hasn't moved down yet.
➡️
Steady new buyers — ~3 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 1 → 2 → 4 → 3. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌
Mixed — 27% long-term, 55% new
■ 27% conviction (2yr+)
■ 18% medium
■ 55% new
Of the 11 current holders: 3 (27%) held >2 years, 2 held 1–2 years, and 6 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.
➡️
Steady discovery — ~3 new funds/quarter
0 → 1 → 2 → 4 → 3 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 1 → 2 → 4 → 3. Consistent flow of new institutional buyers without clear acceleration or slowdown.
🌱
Early stage — 55% of holders entered in last year
■ 27% veterans
■ 18% 1-2yr
■ 55% new
Of 11 current holders: 6 (55%) entered in the past year, only 3 (27%) are 2+ year veterans. This is an early-phase institutional idea — still being discovered. High upside potential if the thesis plays out, but thin conviction base.
