COIN Price Prediction: Coinbase Global Inc stock ends lower after a roller coaster session

NASDAQ:COIN saw its recent rally stall on Wednesday, even as growth sectors continued to show relative strength after the recent correction. Shares of Coinbase fell by just 0.37% during a whipsaw session that saw the stock dip in early morning trading before recovering for the most part by the closing bell. Coinbase has been a bit of a disappointment since its debut on Wall Street, but after several institutional analysts have recently issued bullish sentiment, the stock has continued to find support at its depressed valuations.

One of the bearish arguments against Coinbase has always been how strong of a moat it has in the rapidly growing crypto industry. High trading fees are another common complaint amongst users, which can be a double edged sword for Coinbase as these fees account for a larger percentage of its margins and revenues. Perhaps one of the worst things Coinbase investors could hear came on Wednesday when rumors of tech giant Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) entering the crypto space as it posted a job opportunity for an alternate payments position. Things could definitely get interesting for Coinbase if the world’s largest company enters the crypto payments and exchange space.
