Much has been written and discussed about the incredible success and then failure of Cathie Wood’s phenomenal ARK Innovation exchange-traded fund, which exploded in 2020 only to implode in the fall of 2021 and trade sideways most of 2022. The huge parabolic move in 2020 and 2021 saw this ETF rise a stunning 313% between March 15, 2020, and February 7, 2021. Investors that were late to the party then saw the fund crash and burn, from a $156.58 all-time high to a $30.97 closing low on December 19, 2022, a massive round-trip decline.

So the question for investors is whether Cathie Wood’s investing style is all show and no real place for anybody to invest, or is her desire to own companies that will excel and prosper in the future the right place to be, especially now with the price of the ARK fund still sitting just $12 above the low printed last December? While some would say no, for investors with a long-term outlook and big-time risk tolerance, the time may indeed be now.
For those not wanting to own the entire basket of stocks in the fund, we screened the holding looking for the five companies that are almost guaranteed winners now and in the future. These stocks are all rated Buy across Wall Street, but it is important to remember that no single analyst report should be used as a sole basis for any buying or selling decision.
We listed each stock by the size of its weighting in the ARK Innovation portfolio.
