ARK Invest sold nearly $150 million in Coinbase shares last week amid continued ETF rebalancing
ARK Invest sold 580,000 Coinbase shares last week.This was the firm’s second-largest weekly COIN sale since July 2023.
The shares were sold from three of the Cathie Wood-led investment manager's exchange-traded funds — specifically, from its Innovation ETF, Next Generation Internet ETF and Fintech Innovation ETF.
The amount offloaded by ARK is substantial — being the most sold since mid-February and the second-most since July of last year.
Per usual, ARK's Coinbase sells are part of an effort to rebalance its ETFs — as the investment manager tries to let no individual holding take up more than 10% of an ETF's portfolio. Because of this, it is anticipated that ARK will continue to sell COIN, as the crypto exchange's shares still make up more than 10% of its ETFs' weight.
Shares of Coinbase are trading more than 80% higher than in February amid a wider Bitcoin-driven crypto market surge. The market-leading cryptocurrency set a new all-time high earlier this morning.
