Cathie Wood Purchases Robinhood Stock 

Cathie Wood bought 45,792 Robinhood stocks worth over $800,000 on July 12. This follows a continued pattern of Ark Invest buying the dip in tech stocks following the latest market dip. After a massive run in Q1 2024 on the back of a tech-driven surge, the asset plummeted as momentum stalled. In the last 30 days, the crypto stock fell over 22% as some holders dumped the asset. 

However, buying opportunities opened for Cathie Wood and other investors who continue to rake in the asset. Last week, Ark Invest bought $2.4 million worth of HOOD stock amid its positive earnings. Similar purchases were also made in Coinbase amid the recent stock dip showing wider optimism for both crypto stocks. The company also purchased Alphabet stock and added its dump of two Ethereum Futures ETFs, ProShares EETH and its own ARKZ.

Robinhood which recorded a better-than-expected Q2 report continues to endear the crypto community as its foray into the market drives growth. In its latest report, revenue accrued from its crypto segments soared 161% compared to last year.

Stock Price Jumps Weekly 10% 

Despite the recent dip, HOOD stock price stands at $18.54, closing Monday with a 3.4% surge. This uptick has extended through the past week as it recorded over a 10% increase in price. Similar weekly recovery was also seen in Coinbase stock price although the asset remains in the red zone. 

The Bank of America cited rising retail engagement, organic growth, and a positive operating leverage as reasons for its bullish projection on Robinhood stocks.
