- Ark Invest added significant shares of Coinbase, Circle, and Bullish across its flagship ETFs on Monday, resuming a crypto equity buying spree.
- The firm funded these purchases by selling positions in Chinese tech giants Alibaba and Baidu, marking a strategic shift in its portfolio.
- This rotation aligns with Cathie Wood’s bullish stance on U.S. crypto regulation and her support for the pending CLARITY Act.
ARK Invest executed a significant portfolio rotation on Monday, shifting funds from Chinese technology stocks to U.S. crypto-related equities across its flagship ETFs. The firm’s daily trade disclosures revealed substantial purchases of Coinbase, Circle, and Bullish while selling Alibaba and trimming Baidu.
This marked the second such buying batch in days, signaling a sustained strategic pivot rather than a one-off trade. Consequently, the move strengthens the firm’s exposure to companies poised to benefit from clearer U.S. digital asset regulations. The buying spanned the ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), the ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW), and the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF).
Meanwhile, the firm paired its crypto accumulation with a reduction in Chinese tech holdings. This reallocation of capital underscores a broader thematic shift within ARK’s investment strategy. The purchases directly track founder Cathie Wood’s public advocacy for supportive U.S. crypto policy.
Wood has steadily supported the CLARITY Act, arguing it would help innovation flourish domestically. Her firm specifically backed the bill’s contested Section 604, calling it “thoughtful and nuanced.” Republicans are targeting a Senate floor vote on the legislation after the July 4 recess.
