When a large number of fund managers independently choose the same stock, it is a powerful signal of institutional conviction — these are the stocks that professional money managers believe in most.
A stock held by 200+ mutual funds means that hundreds of fund managers — each doing their own independent research — have concluded that this stock deserves a place in their portfolio. This collective wisdom is one of the most reliable indicators of a stock's quality within its sector.
