Ark Invest has been strategically selling off Robinhood shares. It has consistently reduced its position on Robinhood this year. This recent sell-off closely aligns with Robinhood’s decision to introduce a cryptocurrency trading API for developers. 
Cathie Wood has strategically decreased the firm’s exposure to cryptocurrencies. The broader strategy of Ark Invest has been effective since the year began. The move has been motivated by the increasing market volatility in the crypto space. Ark Invest’s continued sale of Robinhood shares has significantly reduced its crypto-related risks.
