Cathie Wood, the star fund manager and chief executive of ARK Invest, took to CNBC to defend the woeful performance of the manager's suite of disruptive innovation funds.
Cathie Wood thinks the gravitation of money managers toward benchmarks, rather than taking risk on what she views as potentially game-changing technology in gene editing, electric vehicles and artificial intelligence, among others, was creating a 'massive misallocation of capital' in markets that could be the biggest in 'the history of mankind.'
Benchmarks are where they are because of past successes...If we are right, those are the companies that will be disrupted."
--- she said on CNBC.
She said "absolutely," when asked if some of the companies her funds have invested in, which enjoyed nearly parabolic run-ups during the height of the pandemic-fueled worries in 2020, would return to their pandemic heights.
"We are not going back to the old ways of doing things," she said about the surge in value in the cache of stocks bought by ARK that saw revenue accelerate during the COVID public health crisis.
To those who are betting on the failure of ARK, Wood said the idea of shorting innovation is "ridiculous," referencing funds, including $Tuttle Capital Short Innovation ETF(SARK.US)$, which can be used to wager against ARK's roster of investments.
The idea of shorting innovation in America is ridiculous, I think."
---she said.
However, $ARK Innovation ETF(ARKK.US)$ fell 28% and $Tuttle Capital Short Innovation ETF(SARK.US)$ jumped 30% so far in 2022.
By comparison, the $Dow Jones Industrial Average(.DJI.US)$ was down 5.5% in the year to date, the $S&P 500 Index(.SPX.US)$ was trading 8% lower over the same period, the $Nasdaq Composite Index(.IXIC.US)$ has declined by 12.3%, as of this Thursday.

  • bwjx : 80% or more start up fail at some point in time. I'm not an entrepreneur so shorting innovation etf seem like the way to go.

  • 搞经济 抄底 加仓 : Capital not flowing into your Equity doesn't mean that a misallocation ^sister Wood^ Look at Amazon, doing okay undefinedThe fact that capital does not flow into your position does not mean that there is a problem with capital, Sister Mu.undefinedThat's what your subordinates told you. Look at Amazon.Com Inc. It's good.

  • Buyhighsellhighest : I think there is an argument to be made that over a long time horizon her index will outperform markets as it will undoubtably invest in the next Tesla/Amazon.  In the short term (under 5 years) I am not confident we will see that outperform.  This is highly dependent on government regulations though

  • CrowKing : yes .

  • Louis Jia Heng : If she sounding scare on her losses ?

  • 71284945 : There is not a misallocation of capitol during these current market conditions, but as soon as certain environmental factors change, the big money will once again chase after innovation and growth and when that happens those who are patient will be well rewarded.

  • Andre88888888 : Feel like she got more misallocation of her capital.. Whatever she touches for the short term dips. Only tesla keeping her afloat. See what she did to Palantir? Dump 53m worth of shares lol

  • Violets : yes. I think many people think that the day traders are dumb. they are not they see where the money is and they know it doesn't really belong there maybe with the exception of Tesla and Microsoft everything else is overly propped up

  • TYNG8825 : Nice

  • 101569646 : let see probably 5 years or 10 years ahead n how long short ark ETF can short? I on the sideline now to watch the fun lol.
