$RKT Ownership + flow: catalyst path + risks
Disclosure: long RKT.
13F is backward-looking flow (passive/systematic). It can pressure the tape short-term, but it’s not a fundamentals verdict.
One important note is structure: 13D/G + Dan Gilbert/RHI control = tighter tradable float → more price-sensitive. Smaller flows can move price.
In my opinion, for the move to stick, RKT needs improved operating performance to show up in cash flows (not just optics). If that happens, and RKT shifts from small-cap buckets to mid/large-cap allocator buckets, demand could step up.
Risks / other side: if mortgage volumes re-soften, pricing compresses, or cash flows don’t improve, the stock can stay rangebound. Tight float cuts both ways — it can amplify downside too if incremental sellers show up.
Macro tailwind: Basel III / bank balance sheet constraints. Micro tailwind: AI + Redfin/Coop funnel integration = productivity gains.
