Ark Invest, Led by Cathie Wood, Turned Crypto Market Declines into Opportunity! Here Are the Purchases It Made
Ark Invest, led by Cathie Wood, has expanded its positions in crypto and blockchain-focused companies with large-scale acquisitions.
Ark Invest Buys $15.6 Million in Circle Shares; Increases BitMine and Bullish Positions
The company purchased $15.56 million worth of Circle Internet Group stock, along with millions of additional investments in BitMine and Bullish stock. These purchases were made through three different ETFs affiliated with Ark Invest.
According to the company's transaction disclosure, the ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) acquired 130,595 Circle shares, while the ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW) added 38,313 Circle shares to its portfolio. The ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF) acquired 20,033 Circle shares.
On the same trading day, the three ETFs also added 242,347 BitMine Immersion Technologies shares, worth approximately $8.86 million, and 177,480 Bullish shares, worth approximately $7.28 million.
Interestingly, these investments occurred on a day when stock prices plummeted. Circle shares closed down 4.59% at $82.34, BitMine fell 9.86% to $36.57, and Bullish fell 9.85% to $41.02.
Ark Invest's acquisitions follow Circle's strong third-quarter results, which were announced earlier this week. The company reported a 66% year-over-year increase in total revenue to $740 million and a 202% increase in net income to $214 million. Its USDC supply also increased by 108% year-over-year to $73.7 billion.
Investment bank William Blair gave Circle an “outperform” rating, describing the company as a leader in a “winner-take-most” market with its Circle Payments Network and Arc infrastructure. Circle also announced last month that it is exploring the possibility of issuing native tokens for the Arc blockchain, for which it launched a testnet.
