While 2022’s broad market selloff was led by tech, January has in turn been a strong performance month for disruptive technology-focused ARK Invest and its suite of ETFs. The firm’s ARK Innovation Fund (ARKK B+) had its best single month of performance in January, returning 30% according to VettaFi. The fund was joined by its sibling strategies, the ARK Next Generation ETF (ARKW C+) and the ARK Fintech ETF (ARKF B-), in the 10 top-performing ETFs for the last week.
Times are tough right now, but the U.S. consumer is feeling a bit better this month with the U.S. Index of Consumer Sentiment hitting its highest point since last April. Add in news on Wednesday that e-commerce firm Shopify (SHOP) would up prices for its plans and an analyst’s assessment that the firm has dry powder for M&A, and there may be a solid case for investors to track an active fintech ETF like the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF B-).
Has springtime come early in the world of crypto? The world’s most recognizable digital asset, bitcoin, has spiked 12% over the last five days and 26% over one month after dropping 50% over one year. Bitcoin rebounding reinvigorates the investment case for a digital asset and fintech platform like Coinbase (COIN), which investors can keep an eye on in an active fintech ETF like ARK Invest’s ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF B-).
Let’s face it – it’s tough to be in crypto right now. While the broader market has been pummeled by challenges like inflation and rising rates, the crypto industry, already in a crypto winter, has suffered some high-profile scandals and setbacks. That doesn’t mean there isn’t a role for crypto in future portfolios, and crypto engineers are still finding ways to innovate – with one possible case for Bitcoin optimism found, surprisingly, in methane emissions.
You wouldn’t blame investors for being scared of the crypto world right now. The FTX drama that’s all over social media may be the finance story of the year, not an easy feat in a volatile 2022. If those investors look past the Byzantine (Bahamian) palace drama and Enron comparisons, they can find a Coinbase (COIN) ETF in Cathie Wood’s ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF) buying the stock that may be poised to come out of this crisis as a sober option for the crypto-curious.
