Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management on Thursday booked more profit in Tesla Inc TSLA, selling 4,620 shares — estimated to be worth $4.9 million based on the latest closing price — in the electric vehicle maker.

The Elon Musk-led company’s stock closed 2.15% lower at $1,064.7 a share on Thursday.

Tesla stock posted significant gains on Monday as it reported fourth-quarter delivery volumes that far surpassed expectations; the gains have been since erased. The electric vehicle maker’s shares had advanced about 50% in 2021 and are down 11.3% for the year so far.

The three ETFs held about 1.61 million shares worth $1.75 billion in Tesla, prior to Thursday’s trade.
