Cathie Wood Sells Another $63M In Tesla On Wednesday And Raises Exposure In These Stocks

Cathie Wood-led investment management firm Ark Invest on Wednesday sold more shares in Tesla Inc TSLA, a stock that represents the largest weight for the popular money managing firm.

Ark Invest sold 56,975 shares — estimated to be worth $63.58 million — in the Elon Musk-led company.

Tesla shares pared early losses on Wednesday to close 0.63% higher at $1,116 a share. The stock has risen 53% so far this year; most of this appreciation has happened since September.

Ark Invest has been booking profit in Tesla since September after years of piling up shares in the electric vehicle company at much lower levels. 

Tesla continues to be the money managing firm's biggest bet across ETFs — a stock it predicts would hit the $3,000 mark by the end of 2025.

Including the latest sale, Ark has sold about $3.01 billion worth of shares in Tesla since the start of September.

Ark Invest sold Tesla shares via the Ark Innovation ETF ARKK on Wednesday. The Ark Next Generation Internet ETF ARKW and the Ark Autonomous Technology & Robotics ETF ARKQ also own shares in Tesla.
