On Thursday, Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest made significant trades involving Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:COIN), Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:PLTR), and Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA). These trades were made amidst a backdrop of fluctuating market conditions and strategic investment decisions.

The COIN Trade

Despite a recent uptick in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) prices, Ark Invest sold 77,561 shares of Coinbase from ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:ARKK) and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (NYSE:ARKW). The value of the trade, based on the last closing price of $263.01, was nearly $20.34 million.

A day earlier, the firm sold 24,141 Coinbase shares worth $6.06 million despite an uptick seen in both Coinbase shares and Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC). At the time of writing, Bitcoin traded above the psychologically important $70K mark, despite declining 0.2% over 24 hours.

The PLTR Trade

On the same day, Ark Invest purchased shares of Palantir. This move aligns with Ark’s deepening investment in AI, as evidenced by its recent stake in OpenAI, the parent company of ChatGPT. The value of the PLTR trade, calculated from the last closing price of $22.84, is $162,232.

The NVDA Trade
