Ark Invest increased its Block stake on Monday with purchases totaling about $37.4 million, even as the stock closed down 1.85%. The firm bought 456,059 shares across three of its ETFs. Block expects full-year gross profit of $12.51 billion, up about 21%. Ark’s internal risk controls generally cap any single holding at no more than 10% of a fund, so further buying can also depend on share-price moves and shifts in other portfolio weights.
