What I liked about ARKK was that it showed good alpha. When it was up, it was like a 2.5x leveraged QQQ, but when it went down, it was like 1.5x. What I failed to appreciate, and I think that most people missed it too, is that despite being actively managed, Ark has zero risk management. Cathie Wood operates it like a passive / index fund. BUT, unlike normal passive funds, it is not rules based. Wood just buys and sells whatever she likes. This is a bad combination.
