Tesla Drops After Missed Earnings, Why Is Cathie Wood Gobbling Up Shares?
Portfolio Pulse from Johnny Rice
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) experienced a significant drop after missing its quarterly earnings, contrasting sharply with the success of other tech giants like Nvidia and Microsoft. Despite this, Cathie Wood's ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:ARKK) purchased 377,000 shares, leveraging her strategy of buying underperforming stocks. Tesla's vision for the future, including autonomous driving and robotics, remains a key investment thesis for Wood. Additionally, the AXS 2X Innovation ETF (NASDAQ:TARK) and the AXS Short Innovation Daily ETF (NASDAQ:SARK) offer leveraged exposure to ARKK's performance for bullish and bearish traders, respectively.
