Is ARKK A Buy Right Now?

The ARK Invest investment company's flagship fund is ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK). The ARKK ETF focuses on companies that exhibit "disruptive innovation," a technologically-enabled new product or service that potentially changes the way the world works.

The ARK Innovation ETF surged more than 152% in 2020, handily beating the Nasdaq's hefty 43.6% return. But the ARKK ETF sharply underperformed the Nasdaq in 2021, finishing down 24% compared to the Nasdaq's 21.4% advance. That underperformance continued in 2022, with the ARKK ETF plunging 67% vs. the Nasdaq's 33.1% annual loss. The ARKK ETF rebounded in 2023, up 67.6%.

With the ARKK ETF near its recent highs, the ETF is trying to break out past a buy point in a cup base at 51.33. The ARKK ETF dropped 0.4% Friday, still below the entry.

Other ARK ETFs include Autonomous Technology & Robotics (ARKQ), Next Generation Internet (ARKW), Genomic Revolution (ARKG), Fintech Innovation (ARKF) and the recently-debuted Space Exploration and Innovation (ARKX).

How To Invest Like Cathie Wood: Focus On Game Changers

The ARKK fund's huge gain in 2020 resulted from big stock success stories in cutting-edge tech arenas: DNA sequencing, robotics, artificial intelligence, energy storage and blockchain technology.

"Disruptive innovation is often not priced correctly by traditional investment strategies because people may not understand how big the ultimate opportunities are going to be. They aren't sizing the opportunity and they aren't analyzing the disruption," Wood, the founder and CEO of ARK Invest, commented on the company's website.
