Cathie Wood's ARK Invest has made several notable portfolio adjustments in early August 2025, reflecting a strategic shift in its holdings. Following AMD's second-quarter results, ARK Invest purchased approximately $38 million worth of AMD shares across multiple ETFs, demonstrating confidence in the company's AI chip development despite a recent stock decline of over 6%. Concurrently, ARK reduced its stakes in Palantir Technologies, Shopify, and Roblox, taking profits from these recent winners. On August 8, the firm acquired shares in The Trade Desk, an advertising technology company, and CRISPR Therapeutics, a gene-editing firm, while selling shares in Roblox and Palantir. Additionally, on August 12, ARK Invest bought around 262,463 shares of Block Inc., totaling $19 million, as the stock reached a three-week low. These moves indicate ARK Invest's ongoing portfolio recalibration focusing on growth opportunities in AI, ad tech, and gene editing sectors.
