ARK Invest invests in disruptive innovation (Disruptio – Wikipedia) through its funds. The core investment idea is presented here with a few images https://ark-invest.com/invest-in-innovation/. I opened this thread so that the forum has a place where we can discuss the stocks in ARK’s funds and other investment targets related to disruptive innovation. For a broader discussion on future technologies and trends, there is a thread Tulevaisuuden teknologiat ja trendit - Osakkeet - Inderes forum
ARK believes that we are currently living through the broadest technological transformation of all time:
In total, ARK’s five actively managed ETFs hold approximately 150 different stocks, and the market value of the funds is about $34B. ARK’s founder and largest owner, Cathie Wood, is particularly known as a Tesla bull, but the combined weighting of Tesla in the funds is still only 7.65%. Meaning over 92% is something else.
For stock pickers, the movements of large investors can offer a good opportunity for mimicking. Generally, it is difficult to track fund purchases and sales because funds do not disclose their trades daily. Unlike the mainstream, ARK Invest discloses all its purchases and sales. Unfortunately, ARK’s funds cannot be bought from Europe, but almost all of the individual stocks can.
This Bloomberg interview is worth watching right at the beginning.
Particularly hot companies can be found in the gene technology fund ARKG ARKG - Genomic Revolution Multi-Sector ETF by ARK Invest
ARK has two own websites: https://ark-funds.com/ and https://ark-invest.com/. Both are worth browsing through. You can also find a pretty decent podcast Podcast Listing - ARK Invest .
ARK Invest publishes the contents of its funds daily, as well as its trades, to those subscribed to its mailing list (a free service). ARK strongly focuses on marketing aimed at retail investors. The narrative is amplified by several YouTubers. Perhaps partly because of this, there’s a bit of a cult following around ARK. On this external website, you can follow ARK’s purchases and sales, as well as the development of stock weightings

Strong hype and FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) hover around ARK.
