3 Bold Stock Market Predictions for 2025
The year is almost over, and it's time to make some bold predictions for 2025.
Cathie Wood's ARKK gets a 30% Trump bump, but outflows persist and top $3 billion in 2024
Wood's flagship Ark Innovation ETF (ARKK) has surged more than 30% since Election Day, but the fund is still suffering from investor outflows.
How is Cathie Wood's ARKK ETF stock doing?
Cathie Wood's Ark Innovation ETF (ARKK) stock price has continued to rise this year as America's technology companies rallied. It continued to underperform the broader market as it rose by just 9.13%, while the Invesco QQQ (QQQ) fund rose by almost 24%.
ARKK And ARKQ: As Tech Advances, These Busted Growth ETFs May Reward Patient Buyers
Despite ARK's recent underperformance, I believe in the long-term potential of technological progress and disruptive tech companies, especially as the economy stabilizes and interest rates lift. ARKQ has shown better performance than ARKK, but Tesla is the top holding in both funds; Tesla's potential 70% CAGR should drive growth for both ARKQ and ARKK. While I expect significant upside for both ARKK and ARKQ over at least the next few years, I expect ARKQ to outperform ARKK while presenting less risk to investors.

ARKK Should Not Be A Part Of Your Portfolio
ARK Innovation ETF has underperformed, returning only 15% over 5 years, versus 95% for the S&P 500. ARKK's concentrated holdings in companies like Tesla, Roku, and Coinbase are seen as poor investments with limited growth potential.
