One of the ARK Invest exchange-traded funds run by ETF star Cathie Wood made huge purchases on Thursday. These funds bought over 450,000 shares of DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ: DKNG | DKNG Price Prediction), as the price of these ETFs lost nearly 1% on Thursday. Note that this fund is still up handily in the past year.

ARK Innovation ETF (NYSEARCA: ARKK) bought 486,875 shares of DraftKings. At Thursday’s closing prices, this would have valued these purchases at roughly $21.9 million altogether. Even though this is a small fraction of the total holdings, every little bit counts. ARKK is up 50% in the past year.
