ARKK Traded $4.5 Billion Worth Of Shares On Monday Monday likely marked a much needed gasp of air for Cathie Wood and those holding her ARK Innovation Fund (ARKK). The fund, which is down 22% year to date according to Bloomberg , was able to finish the trading day on Monday up 2.82% at $73.54 per share after falling as low as $64.98, which marked a new 52 week low for the asset manager''s flagship fund. After being down as much as 9.1% during the intraday session, ARKK rebounded with the rest of the market starting at about noon eastern time and, by the close, had posted what felt like one of its few meaningfully positive green days in 2022 so far. Names like Shopify and Roku, which have been decimated over the last 2 months, helped ARKK''s turnaround, rising 6.4% and 3.4% respectively. Surprisingly, the fund''s biggest weighting, Tesla, still finished the day losing -1.47% and closing at $930 per share. Bloomberg ETF expert Eric Balchunas noted at the end of the cash session that the ETF had traded an "astonishing" $4.5 billion worth of shares, which was more than major ETFs like GLD, TLT and EEM.
