Coinbase Global (NASDAQ: COIN) stock has reached the seventh day of a winning streak, accumulating total gains of 26% during this time. The gains have been driven largely by Bitcoin’s historic surge to a new all-time high of almost $126,000 in early October 2025. The company experienced a rise of approximately $25 billion in value over the past week, leading to its current market capitalization of about $98 billion. The stock is currently 55% higher than its value at the conclusion of 2024. This is in contrast to the year-to-date returns of 14.6% for the S&P 500.

After this significant rally, is COIN still a good investment, or is it the right time to secure profits? Conduct a detailed analysis with Buy or Sell COIN.
Recently, COIN stock has experienced a meaningful increase, and currently, we consider it somewhat overpriced. While this might appear to be an opportunity, there are notable risks tied to depending on a single stock. Conversely, a broadly diversified approach holds significant value, as exemplified by Trefis High Quality Portfolio. Additionally, think about what the long-term performance of your portfolio could look like if you incorporated 10% commodities, 10% gold, and 2% crypto alongside equities.
The following table summarizes the return for COIN stock vs. the S&P 500 index over different periods, including the current streak:
Current Streak
What is the point? Momentum often precedes conviction. A multi-day win streak can signal growing investor confidence or spark follow-on buying. Tracking such trends can help you ride the strength, or prepare for a well-timed entry if momentum fades. However, big gains can follow sharp reversals – but how has COIN behaved after prior drops?

While COIN stock looks attractive given its winning streak, investing in a single stock without detailed, thorough analysis can be risky. The Trefis High Quality (HQ) Portfolio, with a collection of 30 stocks, has a track record of comfortably outperforming its benchmark that includes all 3 – the S&P 500, S&P mid-cap, and Russell 2000 indices —and has achieved returns exceeding 91% since its inception. Why is that? As a group, HQ Portfolio stocks provided better returns with less risk versus the benchmark index; less of a roller-coaster ride, as evident in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.
