Why does Cathie Wood and ARKK get on TV so much, she is a bad PM
Posted on 8/25/23 at 2:26 pm

ARKK’s flagship innovation fund has underperformed the S&P 500, NASDAQ 100 and NASDAQ indices by A LOT since inception in 2014- yet she has earned 100’s of millions in fees and she is a Celeb on Bloomberg and CNBC. She is a lousy money manager by any measure. Who falls for this crap?

Bc she’s a woman

30% of the time she is right every time.

Because she leans into the meme stocks (stonks).

How many PMs can you name?
She's a household name among casual investors.
Same with Buffet, Munger etc.

But why, does anyone EVER ask her about the consistent significant underperformance? 10 years- WAY below passive benchmarks

Much of wall street was very jealous of her.

She was positioned perfectly during 2020/2021 with tech growth stocks and other meme type stocks that popped. Everyone paid attention bc of everything else in the world. No rational investor would invest in her funds long term but she made her claim to fame then

Do not know who is and that sounds good based on these posts...

“We believe!!”
I would never let her or her team manage $0.01 of mine.

All of the talking heads will tell you to buy stocks after they bought weeks ago and up 20%

She seems to be a not particularly good swing trader.

Most if not all of her funds are down now. If there is a tech resurgence coming when the economy eventually turns, now is not a bad time to buy them. Besides, they are just volatile enough that you can make bank selling calls on them, while driving your cost basis down considerably. I'm presently up around $7-$10/sh on my various ARK positions thanks to that.
She did get famous with an epic run that ended with government-fueled inflation in '21. We'll see how she does for real when the economy comes back.

She’s rich, so that makes her at least a money board 8.0.

Agree that she is so cringy, and always seems like she’s always overselling every tech stock-de-jour….It’s when I look at the background details and performance that I understand her strategy ( it’s so bad that she has to oversell it).

They interviewed her on CNBC one day, and she said investors should have a minimum 5 year time horizon for her ETFs. That is nuts to me.

Not the exact same thing but reminds me of how the financial media got behind Elizabeth Holmes. They so want it to be true that they ignore the facts and performance data right in front front of their faces.
At this point she could be the poster child for "past performance does not indicate future results" and "vast majority of active managers fail to beat the indexes." But without active trading and market timing the financial media wouldnt have anything to fill the airtime.

1 of these is not like the others. Berkshire Hathaway buys undervalued companies, and hold them forever.
Cathie Wood essentially behaves like a degenerate gambler, buying whatever stock that looks shiny and hoping she guesses right. She can afford to do this because it's other people's money she's investing.
She got lucky a few years ago when a few of her largest holdings went bananas, big fricking deal.
Hell, I bought 5000 AKBA at .37 per share a year ago based on nothing but speculation. Today I look smart, tomorrow I could look very stupid (or at least less smart with the limit stop order I made yesterday.) Speculation buying is always a gamble, buying value is a calculated risk.
