What Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About Zhejiang HangKe Technology?
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.
We can see that Zhejiang HangKe Technology does have institutional investors; and they hold a good portion of the company's stock. This implies the analysts working for those institutions have looked at the stock and they like it. But just like anyone else, they could be wrong. When multiple institutions own a stock, there's always a risk that they are in a 'crowded trade'. When such a trade goes wrong, multiple parties may compete to sell stock fast. This risk is higher in a company without a history of growth. You can see Zhejiang HangKe Technology's historic earnings and revenue below, but keep in mind there's always more to the story.

Additionally, the company's CEO Pingguang Yu directly holds 0.6% of the total shares outstanding.

Insider Ownership Of Zhejiang HangKe Technology
The definition of company insiders can be subjective and does vary between jurisdictions. Our data reflects individual insiders, capturing board members at the very least. Management ultimately answers to the board. However, it is not uncommon for managers to be executive board members, especially if they are a founder or the CEO.
Most consider insider ownership a positive because it can indicate the board is well aligned with other shareholders. However, on some occasions too much power is concentrated within this group.
Our most recent data indicates that insiders own a reasonable proportion of Zhejiang HangKe Technology Incorporated Company. It has a market capitalization of just CN¥11b, and insiders have CN¥5.1b worth of shares in their own names. That's quite significant. It is good to see this level of investment.

The general public, who are usually individual investors, hold a 16% stake in Zhejiang HangKe Technology. While this group can't necessarily call the shots, it can certainly have a real influence on how the company is run.
Private Company Ownership
It seems that Private Companies own 22%, of the Zhejiang HangKe Technology stock. It's hard to draw any conclusions from this fact alone, so its worth looking into who owns those private companies.
