Ark Invest Continues to Offload Coinbase Shares
Coinbase shares, which closed nearly 5.5% higher at $141.09 on Monday, have been subject to Ark’s strategic adjustments.
This is not the first time Ark Invest has trimmed its Coinbase holdings. On November 28, the firm offloaded 43,956 Coinbase shares valued at $5.3 million as the stock reached $119.77, marking its highest point since April 2021.
The strategic move coincided with Coinbase’s impressive 55% surge in share price throughout November, reflecting an improved sentiment in the crypto market.
Ark’s latest Coinbase selling spree follows its significant divestment in July, when the firm sold over $100 million worth of Coinbase shares as prices hovered around $90.
Cathie Wood’s firm has been dynamic in adjusting its exposure to Coinbase, showcasing an ability to capitalize on favorable market conditions while mitigating potential risks.
Simultaneously with the Coinbase sell-off, Ark Invest increased its stake in Robinhood Markets Inc. On Monday, Ark Invest bought 14,704 shares of Robinhood.
