The cluster is dominated by a single large seller (Swedbank Ab) whose $13M trim dwarfs the small buyers. Monitor next 13F for further reduction by Swedbank and whether other large holders follow. The minimal insider buying does not corroborate the bullish side of this cluster.
Executive Summary
Institutional activity in ECG during 2026-Q3 shows a mixed picture: three small asset managers doubled or added positions totaling $2.3M in net buying, while two larger sellers trimmed holdings, led by Swedbank Ab reducing $13.0M. The net dollar flow is heavily negative ($10.8M net selling), and insider buying is minimal, suggesting divergent views among institutional investors.
