Ark Invest Offloads $44.7M in Circle Shares Amid Regulatory Milestone
Cathie Wood''s Ark Invest divested 300,108 shares of Circle Internet Financial (CRCL) across three ETFs, totaling $44.7 million, marking a second consecutive day of profit-taking. The sale occurred as CRCL held steady at $149.15, buoyed by its strong debut rally earlier this month.
The MOVE coincided with the U.S. Senate''s bipartisan passage of the GENIUS Act, a regulatory framework for stablecoin issuers like Circle. CEO Jeremy Allaire hailed the legislation as "genius," signaling industry approval. Meanwhile, Ark shifted capital into chip stocks AMD and Taiwan Semiconductor, positioning for AI growth opportunities.
