Everyday all the financial channels are interviewing Cathie Wood and talking about her ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK). She claims that her holdings are the companies that have disruptive technology. Tesla (TSLA) is her largest holding at 9.21% of her fund so I guess that is her favorite. Since the Barchart Trend Spotter signaled a sell on 9/29 the stock gained11.22%.
