The market capitalization of Summit Hotel is currently $1.07 Billion. 30% of Summit Hotel Properties outstanding shares are owned by institutional holders. Institutional investors are typically referred to investors that purchase positions in a given stock to benefit from reduced commissions. Consequently, institutional investors are subject to different rules and regulations than regular investors. Please look out for any change in current institutional holding as this could mean something significant has changed at the company or is about to change. Be advised that no matter how volatile the entity is, if the real value of the company is more than the value suggested by the market, you should consider buying it. Some institutional investors establish a significant position in preferred stocks such as Summit Hotel in order to find ways to drive up its value. Retail investors, on the other hand, need to know that institutional holders can own millions of shares of Summit Hotel, and when they decide to sell, the preferred stock will often sell-off, which may instantly impact shareholders' value. So, traders who get in early or near the beginning of the institutional investor's buying cycle could potentially generate profits.
