Where Coinbase stands now

As of 12 October 2026, Coinbase has turned: it is ahead of the S&P 500 over the past one and three months, but still behind over the longer run. A recent turn like this needs time to prove itself.

Inside its group, COIN leads: it is ahead of crypto stocks (DAPP) over both the past month and three months. As a group, crypto stocks are losing ground to the S&P 500 right now. The group is in transition, so the stock's place inside it matters more than usual.

Coinbase is 8.8% of DAPP, so its moves weigh on the fund. It sits in 8 of the sector and theme funds Zensei tracks. The thing to watch is the gap to its group: as long as it stays ahead of both the market and its peers, the trend is intact.
