Hey, guys, a week ago we did a little “Trader Training” session on all the volatility we’re seeing right now. We have another training session for you today… We want to look at how we consider exchange-traded funds — specifically what’s in the ARKK ETF.
When facing stock market volatility like this, it’s important to take advantage of everything you can. And right now, this ETF is a huge factor in the markets.
You’ve probably heard the name Cathie Wood floating around the news a lot lately, especially given the pullback in big names like Tesla Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA) and others in the ARKK ETF.
Wood is the founder and CEO of ARK Investment Management, and the portfolio manager of the ARK Innovation ETF (NYSEArca: ARKK). This fund is the poster child for high-flying and high-growth ETFs.
And Wood is the guru of high-flying stocks after buying a boatload of Tesla.
We have tremendous respect for what she does.
Knowing What’s in the ARKK ETF Is Key Right Now
If you look back to March 2020, the beginning of the pandemic, this fund exploded. Well, everything exploded due to COVID-19…
But ARKK jumped 360% over the course of that year. We’ve seen a 30% drop since that high, and have rebounded 10%…
That’s crazy action.
And we know you’re wondering, “Why do I care what’s in the ARKK ETF?”
To answer that question, we need to look under the hood and it starts with a big number. ARKK has a $25 billion market cap.
And the outstanding shares of this fund have tripled since March 2020 and doubled since September.
So aside from 10.5% of her flood being in Tesla — which is massive — what else is she holding and why do we care?
Because the performance of her fund is driving a lot of the volatility in the markets.
So let’s dive in. Check out our video below to see what’s in the ARKK ETF and how it affects you.
