Bakkt Holdings Shares Halted On Circuit Breaker To The Upside, Stock Now Up 12.8%

<p><a href="https://www.ft.com/content/d7f921d5-3668-4b6b-a98d-2681ad73610f">https://www.ft.com/content/d7f921d5-3668-4b6b-a98d-2681ad73610f</a><br /><br />Donald Trump's social media company is in advanced talks to buy Bakkt, a cryptocurrency trading venue owned by Intercontinental Exchange, as it pushes to expand beyond online conversation. The US president-elect's Trump Media and Technology Group, in which he has pledged to retain his 53 per cent stake, is closing in on an all-share purchase of Bakkt, said two people with knowledge of the talks. The valuation under discussion was not immediately clear but Bakkt's market capitalisation stood at just over $150mn on Monday. TMTG, which operates Truth Social, has become one of the most actively traded US stocks since Trump's election victory as retail investors try to profit on its often-volatile trading moves. Although it has reported just $2.6mn in revenues this year, TMTG has a $6bn equity valuation, giving its management a valuable currency with which to buy other companies. A successful deal would deepen Trump's move into the cryptocurrency market after he began promoting a new crypto venture set up by longtime business partners, World Liberty Financial, from which he stands to earn significant fees. Crypto markets have also soared following his election victory, with bitcoin up more than 30 per cent on speculation that his administration would enact favourable legislation for the industry. Bakkt, which has struggled for profitability since its launch, was created by ICE, and the owner of the New York Stock Exchange still holds a 55 per cent economic interest in it. Bakkt's first chief executive was Kelly Loeffler, a former head of marketing at ICE and a Republican ex-senator for Georgia during Trump's first presidency. She is co-chair of the committee organising his inauguration in January. She is also married to Jeff Sprecher, ICE's founder, chair and chief executive. ICE and Bakkt declined to comment. TMTG did not immediately respond to a request for comment.</p>

Bitcoin and broader crypto markets also surged last week as Bitcoin ETFS saw record net inflows of $1.114 billion.

<p>Turner, whose role as director will expire at the company's 2025 annual stockholder meeting, will receive no compensation for his role as a director.</p>
<p>The appointment comes about a month after GameStop entered into a collaboration with<strong> Collectors Holdings</strong> as an authorized PSA dealer.</p>
<p>Turner <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/11/30/2136654/0/en/Collectors-Universe-to-be-Acquired-by-Investor-Group-Led-by-Entrepreneur-and-Collector-Nat-Turner-for-Approximately-700-Million.html">bought </a>out the former publicly-traded Collectors Universe for $700 million in 2020 with a group that included<strong> Cohen Private Ventures</strong>. He serves as CEO and <a href="https://news.gamestop.com/static-files/3a14a8c9-45ea-4adf-a6be-9d7d283ff940">owns</a> up to a 10% equity interest in its Profession Sports Authenticator. </p>
<p>GameStop said the collaboration with PSA has resulted in around $1.53 million in dollar value of transactions since the beginning of the agreement.</p>
<p><strong>Point72 Asset Management</strong>, the investment company that also owns the Point72 hedge fund ran by <strong>Steve Cohen</strong>, owns Cohen Private Ventures.</p>
<p>Point72 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/23/01/30412695/gamestop-short-squeeze-anniversary-a-look-back-at-david-vs-goliath-battle-and-whats-next">provided financing to</a> <strong>Melvin Capital</strong>, a company that shorted GameStop, during the short squeeze. While the hedge fund didn't directly short GameStop, the Cohen-led firm helped provide a lifeline to one of the biggest bettors against the video game retailer.</p>

<p><strong>Why It's Important:</strong> GameStop is expanding its reach beyond video games.</p>
<p>Adding Turner to the board could signal a continued expansion into collectibles and grading services. Turner has one of the most valuable sports card collections in the world.</p>
<p>Collectors owns several grading services including PSA (trading cards), PCGS (coins) and Wata (video games). The ownership of a video game grading service could be something to watch in the future with Turner on the board.</p>
<p>GameStop's collectibles revenue of $139.4 million in<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/09/40803991/gamestop-q2-earnings-highlights-revenue-miss-eps-beat-cash-update-and-more"> the second quarter</a> was down 17.9% year-over-year. The segment saw the lowest year-over-year decline in the quarter, outpacing sharp losses from the hardware (-24.4%) and software (-47.7%) segments.</p>
<p>For GameStop investors who can remember the short squeeze of 2021, it's worth pointing out that the new board member is connected to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/06/32975000/gamestop-film-dumb-money-stars-paul-dano-pete-davidson-seth-rogen-cast-details-first-traile">figure once viewed</a> as an enemy of the company.</p>
<p><strong>Price Action: </strong>GameStop stock is up 1% to $26.71 on Monday versus a 52-week trading range of $9.95 to $64.83. GameStop stock is up over 60% year-to-date in 2024.</p>
