Based on 8 hedge funds · latest filing: 2026 Q1 · updated quarterly
📈
Buying streak — 1 quarter in a row
For 1 consecutive quarter, more hedge funds added XHYI 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.
📊
High ownership — 89% of 3.0Y peak
89% of all-time peak
8 funds currently hold this stock — 89% of the 3.0-year high of 9 funds (reached 2025 Q2). Ownership is elevated but not yet at maximum concentration. Room to grow, but watch if the trend reverses.
🚀
Fast accumulation — +60% more funds vs a year ago
fund count last 6Q
+3 new funds entered over the past year (+60% 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 — 45% buying
5 buying6 selling
Last quarter: 6 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 — ~4 new funds per quarter
new funds entering per quarter
Funds opening this position for the first time: 4 → 1 → 0 → 4. A stable flow of new institutional buyers suggests ongoing interest without signs of either acceleration or slowdown.
📌
Mixed — 25% long-term, 38% new
■ 25% conviction (2yr+)
■ 38% medium
■ 38% new
Of the 8 current holders: 2 (25%) held >2 years, 3 held 1–2 years, and 3 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.
📊
Peak discovery — momentum slowing
1 → 4 → 1 → 0 → 4 new funds/Q
New funds entering each quarter: 4 → 1 → 0 → 4. XHYI is well-known in the hedge fund world, but fresh entries are gradually declining. The explosive phase of institutional discovery is likely behind us.
🌱
Early stage — 62% of holders entered in last year
■ 25% veterans
■ 12% 1-2yr
■ 62% new
Of 8 current holders: 5 (62%) entered in the past year, only 2 (25%) 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.
📋
Smaller funds dominant — 0% AUM from top-100
0% from top-100 AUM funds
1 of 8 holders rank in the top 100 by AUM, but together hold only 0% of total institutional value. The stock is held primarily by smaller and mid-sized funds.
Exit risk score 3.7/10 — low institutional crowding. Ownership is below peak levels, holder base is relatively sticky, and buying momentum is positive.
