Cathie Wood's Ark Invest Dumps Another $3.25M Worth Of Tesla Shares Amid Searing Q2 Deliveries Rally
On Wednesday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made a notable move by offloading a significant number of shares in Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA), despite the recent rally driven by the company’s impressive second-quarter delivery numbers.
The Tesla Trade
Ark Invest reduced its stake in Tesla across its ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:ARKK), selling 13,213 shares. This transaction came as a surprise, given that Tesla’s shares had recently soared 10.20% on Tuesday, marking the best intraday session since late April. Notably, on Tuesday, Ark Invest sold Tesla shares worth $14.5 million.
The boost was primarily driven by the Elon Musk-led company’s second-quarter performance. Tesla reported 443,956 deliveries, significantly exceeding the expected 439,000 vehicles. This upside surprise fueled a rally, propelling shares toward their 2024 high. The majority of sales came from the affordable Models 3 and Y, with only 21,551 units from the pricier Models X, S, and the new Cybertruck.
Based on the last closing price of $246.39, the value of the sold shares on Wednesday stands at approximately $3.25 million. For the day, Tesla stock shot up 6.5%.
