Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest stocks up on more Coinbase, Bullish and Robinhood shares
Ark Invest bought 28,315 Coinbase shares, worth approximately $7.5 million, for its Ark Innovation exchange-traded fund (ARKK) on Tuesday as markets recovered from Monday's price slump.The latest buys come just a week after it bought $16.5 million worth of Coinbase shares across three of its ETFs on Nov. 26 as the Cathie Wood-led investment firm continues to rebalance its fund weightings amid market volatility.Ark's investment strategy aims to let no individual holding take up more than 10% of a fund's portfolio. This is to maintain diversification within its funds — meaning Ark is likely to continue rebalancing its weightings if the value of Coinbase shares rises or falls significantly relative to Ark's other holdings in its funds.According to the firm's disclosures, COIN is currently the second-largest holding within its ARKK fund, with a weighting of 5.6%, worth around $409.6 million, as of Dec. 3, behind a $900.2 million position in Tesla stock.Recovering from Monday's slumpCoinbase shares closed up 1.3% on Tuesday at $263.26 after dropping 7.4% at one point on Monday amid the broader crypto and stock market slump, and are currently up 4.2% in pre-market trading on Wednesday.COIN has fallen 21.7% over the past month and is now just 2.6% up year-to-date after slipping 37% from its summer peak, according to The Block's Coinbase page.
