"ARK's active ETFs outperformed broad global indexes in Q3 2025, buoyed by the belief that economic headwinds are shifting to structural tailwinds for disruptive innovation."
In the Q3 2025 Quarterly Report, ARK Invest's Chief Investment Officer Catherine D. Wood reviews the macroeconomic landscape, detailing how past headwinds are shifting into structural tailwinds for disruptive innovation. Pointing to signs of a late-stage 'rolling recession' (e.g., labor cooling, housing constraints, and manufacturing contraction), Wood expects policy clarity on taxes, tariffs, and deregulation to spark economic growth. ARK's six actively managed ETFs (ARKQ, ARKW, ARKG, ARKK, ARKF, ARKX) outperformed global equity indexes during the quarter, benefiting from high-conviction exposure to themes like artificial intelligence, robotics, genomic sequencing, blockchain, and energy storage.
