Ark Continues Rebalancing To Maintain Strategy That Allows No One Holding To Make Up More Than 10% Of A Fund
Ark adopts an investment strategy that limits individual holdings to 10% of a fund’s portfolio to maintain diversification within its funds. As a result, Ark undergoes regular rebalancing of its weightings to ensure that each holding stays under the 10% level.
As a result, if the value of Coinbase shares rises or falls significantly relative to Ark’s other holdings in its funds, expect to see further buys or sells.
Ark also bought 269,864 Robinhood (HOOD) shares worth $9.6 million for its ARKK fund on Monday as HOOD fell nearly 20% over the past day.
At the same time, Cathie Wood investment firm sold 375,607 shares (worth $20.6 million) in Block (XYZ) from its ARKK and ARKW funds. The Jack Dorsey-led company saw its stock drop 8.8%, a smaller daily drop than HOOD and COIN.
BONUS: BTC Bull (BTCBULL) Presale Hits $3.5m In Funding As Investors Are Betting Big On This Bitcoin Alternative
BTC Bull (BTCBULL) is a brand new presale that has just surpassed $3.5m in early stage funding. This new project offers investors a way to gain exposure to Bitcoin without experiencing the ongoing volatile price swings recently experienced by the leading digital asset.
BTCBULL offers a perfect solution to avoid the recent blood in the market due to it still being in presale and thus not yet available for trading across exchanges.

Airdrops will begin once BTC hits its first milestone of $150,000. The amount of BTC airdropped will be weighted according to the individuals BTCBULL holdings.
Subsequent airdrops will be unlocked with Bitcoin price increments of $50,000. This means the following price targets to unlock further airdrops are $200,000, $250,000, and so on.
Investors can acquire the project’s native asset, the BTCBULL token, at current low presale prices, securing its utility, which will begin to activate once the project officially launches and Bitcoin hits its the aforementioned price milestones.
The BTCBULL presale has a built-in staking protocol, offering a current APY of 123%. This means that not only do presale investors secure BTCBULL at low prices, but passive income is also in play for those choosing to stake.
