On Tuesday, Ark Invest, led by Cathie Wood, continued its trend of selling Tesla shares for the second day in a row. The investment firm sold a significant number of Tesla shares, totaling 28,659, despite the electric vehicle maker’s recent strong stock performance and positive growth projections. At Tuesday’s closing price of $293.34, the value of the trade amounted to $8.4 million. The sales were executed through Ark Invest’s Ark Innovation Fund (ARKK) and Ark Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW).
Despite the selling spree, Ark Invest remains optimistic about Tesla’s long-term prospects, particularly in the realm of artificial intelligence (AI). Ark analyst Frank Downing predicted that Tesla’s AI training capacity would experience a compounded annual growth rate of 273% from 2021 to 2024, potentially positioning Tesla as the first company to roll out a nationwide autonomous taxi platform. This move comes after Tesla reported impressive second-quarter deliveries and analysts expressed confidence in further growth in the latter half of the year.
