Cathie Wood Splashes $12.7 Million On Chip Giants AMD And Taiwan Semiconductors, Ark Dumps Another $45 Million Worth Of Hot Circle Stock

A former Bank of England economist is raising red flags over the growing role of stablecoins in the U.S. financial system, with major implications for banks, as well as the U.S. Dollar.
What Happened: In a recent episode of The Big View by Reuters, Dan Davies, an ex-BoE regulatory economist and veteran bank analyst, compared stablecoin issuers like Circle Internet Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>) and Tether to banks that lack the oversight and safeguards of traditional institutions.
&#8220;These things are basically intrinsically unstable financial structures,&#8221; Davies said, noting that their promise of 1:1 redemption in U.S. dollars makes them particularly vulnerable to sudden runs, referring to bank runs, when a large number of individuals try to withdraw their funds from an institution at the same time.
He says, &#8220;If you think there's even a small chance that it [a stablecoin] might be worth 95 cents on the dollar, then you want to get out immediately.&#8221;
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/25/06/45967070/howard-lutnick-says-nearly-70000-register-for-5-million-trump-card-visa-as-us-eyes-1-trillion-windfall-from-premium-immigration-plan">Howard Lutnick Says Nearly 70,000 Register For $5 Million &#8216;Trump Card&#8217; Visa As US Eyes $1 Trillion Windfall From Premium Immigration Plan</a>
Davies notes that stablecoin issuers hold significant reserves in commercial bank deposits and Treasury bills, so in case redemptions spike, the banks that hold these reserves could witness withdrawal demands in the billions.
&#8220;They're very bad customers for the banking system,&#8221; he says, pointing to the systemic stress this dynamic could introduce.
Circle, for instance, works <a href="https://www.circle.com/usdc">with</a> the Bank of New York Mellon Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BK#NYSE">BK</a>) as its custodian, among a few others, while Tether works <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42166673/drug-cartels-use-tether-and-bitcoin-to-launder-millions-court-documents-reveal">with</a> Cantor Fitzergerald. 
According to Davies, the GENIUS Act, a bill introduced in Congress to regulate stablecoins, may end up doing more harm than good. 
While the legislation appears to offer guardrails, such as reserve disclosures and other transparency requirements, Davies believes that it could inadvertently normalize risk. 
On a global level, Davies said the move could accelerate &#8220;de-dollarization,&#8221; as countries seek to insulate their economies from the added volatility introduced by U.S.-backed stablecoins.
&#8220;Signing up to the U.S. dollar now means signing up to stablecoins,&#8221; he says, warning this could erode trust and encourage alternatives like central bank digital currencies in Europe and Asia.
Why It Matters: Davies&#8217; concerns have been echoed by several other prominent experts and institutions, such as the United States Financial Services Oversight Council (FSOC), which raised alarms over the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/42377684/fsoc-warns-stablecoins-pose-stability-risks-due-to-lack-of-management-standards">potential risks posed</a> by stablecoins due to inadequate risk management standards late last year. 
There are, however, several other <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42585826/stablecoins-redefining-global-finance-are-banks-falling-behind">voices in support</a> of this new asset class, such as Jan Van Eck, the CEO of VanEck, who said that &#8220;the global payments system is being rewired as we speak,&#8221; while referring to stablecoins and their utility in payments and cross-border transactions. 
Last month, it was reported that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45579978/banking-giants-like-jpmorgan-bank-of-america-mull-joint-stablecoin-to-counter-crypto-competition-report">leading U.S. Banks</a>, including JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co.

10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Shares of Circle Internet Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>), the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, continued their meteoric rise on Monday, hitting new highs in another volatile session. The rally extends a powerful run since the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45821941/circle-crcl-stock-surges-after-successful-ipo-debut-whats-going-on">blockbuster IPO on June 5</a>.
What To Know: Circle Internet Group priced its IPO at $31, but the stock, which has captivated investors, opened for trading at $69 and closed its first day on public markets at $83.23 and has continued to see strong momentum.
The surge is being fueled by significant institutional interest, highlighted by a large purchase from Cathie Wood&#8217;s ARK Invest shortly after the debut. Wood called the IPO an &#8220;amazing debut,&#8221; citing the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/ipos/25/06/45819104/cathie-wood-calls-circles-ipo-an-amazing-debut">growing role</a> of stablecoins like USDC in creating demand for U.S. dollars.

The company&#8217;s successful IPO marks a key milestone in the integration of stablecoins into global finance.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy CRCL Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Circle Internet Group &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

'Financial Markets Giant DTCC Explores a Stablecoin'- The Information

The world of initial public offerings (IPOs) has seen several standout performers over the past year. CoreWeave, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) saw a massive rally following its late March debut and Circle Internet Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>) burst onto the scene last week with<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45835006/why-circle-internet-group-shares-are-trading-higher-by-around-18-here-are-20-stocks-moving-premarket"> its successful IPO. </a>
But will they continue the upward trend and achieve sustained growth like Reddit, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>) and Astera Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALAB#NASDAQ">ALAB</a>) following their 2024 IPOs? 
CRCL: Circle's IPO was priced at $31 and shares rocketed to $88 by the end of the first trading day. The stock climbed to over $107 the following day and marked a two-day surge of nearly 250%, setting a new record for IPOs raising $500 million or more since 1980, according to <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/06/10/circle-ipo-stock-price-valuation-outlook/">Fortune</a>.&nbsp;
Circle shares closed at $105.91 on Tuesday, with the newly listed stock having a $25.64 billion market cap.

CRWV: CoreWeave has also proven to be a powerhouse following its late March IPO, which debuted at $40 per share. The stock closed Tuesday at $154.90, up more than 280% since its IPO, with a market capitalization of more than $89 billion.  
However, the stock<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45868311/coreweave-stock-falls-after-da-davidson-flags-massive-downside-risk"> dipped Tuesday on news</a> that DA Davidson analyst Gil Luria highlighted some "red flags" and called into question the value being generated for equity holders.
"CoreWeave disclosed a pro forma contract financing structure example to analysts earlier today, trying to indicate shareholders will get some returns during the duration of the contracts being signed. We believe the disclosure (even if accepted at face value) very clearly illustrates the exact opposite point," Luria said in a note to clients on Tuesday.
RDDT, ALAB: Both Reddit and Astera Labs had their IPOs in March 2024 and both stocks have maintained large gains in the following year.
Reddit's initial public offering was priced at $34 per share, valuing the company at approximately $6.4 billion. Reddit shares closed on Tuesday at $117.09 with a market capitalization of $21.68 billion. 
The social media platform's financial performance has been strong since its IPO, with a 68% increase in revenue to $348.4 million in the third quarter of 2024 and its first quarterly profit since going public.&nbsp;
Astera Labs' initial public offering was priced at $36 per share in March 2024 and the stock ended Tuesday's session at $91.46, more than double the IPO price. 
Both Astera Labs and Reddit have delivered strong IPO performances and sustained significant long-term gains.
Circle and CoreWeave have the potential to perform like Reddit and Astera Labs if they can maintain their current growth trajectories, manage risks and execute on their strategic plans.

<h3>Understanding the Significance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions should be considered alongside other factors when making investment decisions, as they can offer important insights.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Understanding Crucial Transaction Codes</h3>
For <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a>, a primary focus lies on transactions occurring in the open market, as indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.
