What Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About Brunel International?
Institutional investors commonly compare their own returns to the returns of a commonly followed index. So they generally do consider buying larger companies that are included in the relevant benchmark index.
Brunel International already has institutions on the share registry. Indeed, they own a respectable stake in the company. This suggests some credibility amongst professional investors. But we can't rely on that fact alone since institutions make bad investments sometimes, just like everyone does. If multiple institutions change their view on a stock at the same time, you could see the share price drop fast. It's therefore worth looking at Brunel International's earnings history below. Of course, the future is what really matters.
Hedge funds don't have many shares in Brunel International. Our data suggests that Jan Brand, who is also the company's Top Key Executive, holds the most number of shares at 60%. When an insider holds a sizeable amount of a company's stock, investors consider it as a positive sign because it suggests that insiders are willing to have their wealth tied up in the future of the company. Praude Asset Management Ltd. is the second largest shareholder owning 2.0% of common stock, and The Vanguard Group, Inc. holds about 1.6% of the company stock.
While studying institutional ownership for a company can add value to your research, it is also a good practice to research analyst recommendations to get a deeper understand of a stock's expected performance. While there is some analyst coverage, the company is probably not widely covered. So it could gain more attention, down the track.
