ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK)

ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) serves as a high-risk barometer for speculative growth, holding $8 billion in assets with Tesla as its top position. Despite a severe 75% drawdown from its February 2021 peak through 2022, ARKK still attracts investors chasing disruptive tech returns, though its annualized volatility of 38% far exceeds the category average. Compared to #9 SPDR Gold Shares (GLD), ARKK lost 65% more value in 2022, highlighting its extreme sensitivity to interest rate shifts.
