#32Never heard of Ark. I checked out their site but can anyone give me some context on why they're notable?
Ark creates ETFs that focus entirely on publicly-traded future tech companies. They operate in four segments: Genomics, Robotics, Internet, and FinTech. You will find very few, if any, companies in the Ark ETFs that would be considered "safe" picks for most investors. This is a testament to the nature of choosing companies working on the forefront of technological breakthroughs. My summary spin on what they're doing…
That is an understatement! This table looks like a wallstreetbets word cloud!

Just a stock noob, but they are an investment company which markets things like ETFs for buying baskets of stocks. They are known for being big proponents of Tesla stock before it blew up. Now they seem to be considered thought leaders on what is the next tech stock to achieve Tesla-like returns.

#35Do you update the share prices every day? How do you get the data?
They also will email you daily trade notifications if you request them: https://ark-funds.com/subscribe (I'm not scraping those)

#36Like how does Ark do it? How are they able to perform way better than other investors? Isn't there a mental model that sooner or later they wouldn't be able to have returns higher than market returns

Tesla is 9% of their portfolio. Tesla has a P/E of over 1000. It seems incredibly risky to hold Tesla now.

#38Do you feel like Ark will be able to perform as well as they had in the past in the upcoming years? Like how does Ark do it? How are they able to perform way better than other investors?

Early Jan could be sketchy as people sell their best performers to defer taxes on their high gainers.
I would be surprised if ARK didn’t outperform the market average over any 3 year period. But I also worry about Cathie and her team’s continuing motivation after Resolute and Kelso & Company took control of Ark Invest. I wouldn’t be surprised if Cathie and her team issued a new set of replacement ticker symbols under a new name.
Disclaimer: I do hold ARK shares and some bullish options positions.

#39I'm surprised to see Roku as such a big holding for them. I wonder what their thesis. Apparently I'm not the only one confused by this https://www.reddit.com/r/investing/comments/f3my4w/why_would... https://investorplace.com/2020/08/roku-stock-is-poised-for-l...
