The broad markets had a positive start to the week as the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq bounced back from last week’s loss. ARK Investors were especially happy as each of the ETFs posted a solid gain on the day. ARKW performed the best out of the group up about 3.0%, while ARKG lagged the rest of the group up only 0.9% each. The gains from last year are slowly sliding away, but Cathie Wood may have something up her sleeve as she is constantly reshuffling her ETFs to stand up to market headwinds.

ARK Invest has been the talk of Wall Street over the past couple of years, outperforming the market and solidifying its place among the big players in the investments world. Cathie Wood is the founder and head of this investment house, and many have compared her rising star to the likes of Warren Buffett.

Many traders are looking to mirror the plays of famous investors and huge brokerage firms to capitalize on the gains that the big dogs are making. Lucky for us, ARK Invest releases a list of its trades at the end of each trading day.
