If you want to know who really controls Soitec S.A. (EPA:SOI), then you'll have to look at the makeup of its share registry. The group holding the most number of shares in the company, around 38% to be precise, is institutions. Put another way, the group faces the maximum upside potential (or downside risk).

And so it follows that institutional investors was the group most impacted after the company's market cap fell to €4.8b last week after a 12% drop in the share price. This set of investors may especially be concerned about the current loss, which adds to a one-year loss of 19% for shareholders. Also referred to as "smart money", institutions have a lot of sway over how a stock's price moves. As a result, if the downtrend continues, institutions may face pressures to sell Soitec, which might have negative implications on individual investors.

Let's take a closer look to see what the different types of shareholders can tell us about Soitec.
