A couple of the ARK Invest exchange-traded funds run by ETF star Cathie Wood made huge purchases on Wednesday. These funds bought over 750,000 shares of DraftKings Inc. (NASDAQ: DKNG) altogether, as the price of these ETFs gained around 1% on Wednesday. Note that these funds are up handily in the past year.

ARK Innovation ETF (NYSEARCA: ARKK) bought 599,968 shares of DraftKings and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (NYSEARCA: ARKW) acquired 159,851 shares. At Wednesday’s closing prices, this would have valued these purchases at roughly $40.0 million altogether. Even though this is a small fraction of the total holdings, every little bit counts.

Credit Card Companies Are Doing Something Nuts

Credit card companies are at war. The biggest issuers are handing out free rewards and benefits to win the best customers.

It’s possible to find cards paying unlimited 1.5%, 2%, and even more today. That’s free money for qualified borrowers, and the type of thing that would be crazy to pass up. Those rewards can add up to thousands of dollars every year in free money, and include other benefits as well.

We’ve assembled some of the best credit cards for users today.  Don’t miss these offers because they won’t be this good forever.
