Cathie Wood

Queen of the bull market
Founder & CIO of ARK Invest

Bets on disruptive innovation — AI, genomics, robotics, energy storage, blockchain — on 5+ year S-curves, accepting extreme volatility for long-run upside.

Founded ARK Invest in 2014, famous for transparent active ETFs. Her flagship ARKK rose 152% in 2020 on early Tesla conviction, making her the face of disruptive-growth investing — through a violent boom-and-bust in 2021–23.

Disclosure
