The Dow Jones, S&P 500 and Nasdaq continued their push higher on Tuesday bouncing back from last week’s pullback. ARK funds followed suit and had a strong showing as well. ARKQ performed the best out of the group, up 2.3% on the day, while ARKX underperformed the rest of the group, up 1.0%. 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.
