Cathie Wood's Ark Invest Continues to Jettison Coinbase Shares As Anticipation Builds Around Approval of Bitcoin Spot ETF

Benzinga - On Thursday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made a significant move by selling a substantial amount of Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:COIN) shares.

The Coinbase Trade

Ark Invest’s decision to offload $4.7 million worth of Coinbase shares aligns with the recent market trends and Wood’s strategic adjustments in her portfolio. Ark sold a total of 37,377 Coinbase shares through ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (NYSE:ARKW).

This week Wood juggled her crypto portfolio by adding Robinhood shares while offloading Coinbase shares as the frenzy builds around the potential approval of a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) spot ETF.

This trade is particularly noteworthy given Coinbase’s recent achievement of a new 52-week high, as detailed in a recent Benzinga report.

Other Key Trades:

  • Ark Invest purchased 13,018 shares of 10X Genomics Inc (NASDAQ:TXG), reflecting a growing interest in the genomics sector through ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (BATS:ARKG).
  • The firm also increased its stake in Teladoc Inc (NYSE:TDOC) by buying 57,429 shares, betting on the telehealth industry’s expansion via ARKG.
  • A notable sale included 8,305 shares of Shopify Inc (NYSE:SHOP), aligning with recent shifts in the e-commerce space through the flagship ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:ARKK).
  • Another significant purchase was 143,107 shares of Pure Storage Inc (NYSE:PSTG), indicating a focus on data storage solutions through ARKW.
