5 Cathie Wood Stocks Wall Street Predicts Will Rally 76% to 99%

: COIN | Coinbase Global Inc. News, Ratings, and Charts

COIN – Renowned institutional investor Cathie Wood of Ark Investments fame is known for her market-beating investment strategies. Ark’s portfolio companies are attractive investments due to their long-term high growth potential and ability to withstand the current industry headwinds. Thus, Wall Street analysts expect fundamentally solid Cathie Wood stocks Coinbase (COIN), Zoom Video (ZM), Unity Software (U), Roku Inc. (ROKU), and Exact Sciences (EXAS) to rally in price in the near term. Let’s discuss.

Cathie Wood is known for making risky investment bets on fundamentally sound growth stocks. Her bets on quality tech and electric vehicle (EV) stocks have led her to market-beating returns in the pandemic era. However, since last year, Cathie Wood’s ARK ETFs have been hit hard by investors’ switch from growth to value stocks amid concerns surrounding skyrocketing inflation, the Fed’s tighter monetary policy, elevated stock valuations, and escalating war tensions between Russia and Ukraine.

Wood has been reshuffling her ETF holdings to mitigate the market headwinds. And the recent stock market turbulence provides a great opportunity for long-term investors to add quality Cathie Wood stocks to their portfolios. These stocks are trading at low prices, and we think are well-positioned to withstand the bearish market trends.

Given these factors, Wall Street analysts expect Cathie Woods stocks Coinbase Global, Inc. (COIN), Zoom Video Communications, Inc. (ZM), Unity Software Inc. (U), Roku, Inc. (ROKU), and Exact Sciences Corporation (EXAS) to surge in price  in the coming months.
