Nice content! A few years ago I was an assistant to a wealthy designer and in the short time I worked with him I observed that he had quite a few investments all over the place, stocks, crypto, dividend investing to name a few, so he had income from all angles. And in one year its value has doubled. With this, I learned that the rich stay rich by investing.

ARK and Woods firm has a weak track record, underperforming. The returns have large swings in both directions, mostly negative. Woods markets to futuristic tech, younger crowd with limited experience in investing in general. ARK invests in high growth, high risk businesses, some in VC type growth, with no profits.

Cathie Woods and Michael Burry are two people investing videos often reference. She seems to think the stock market will go up forever, he seems to think it's on the edge of collapse. Last year I looked at both of their companies and they've both been performing well behind the DJIA. I don't think I'll take either of their advice.

"Cathy Woods defends her investment strategy." She should be pretty good at that by now. She's been on defense for the last 5 years.

So you disable comments on your Israel response to the Hamas terror attacks, why? So no one can give a competing narrative?
Not what I expected from DW but maybe I should have.

Sold all my positions in Ark funds. Her funds are figured with high volatility and low returns. Very bad combination in the investment world.

I just clicked the video for the reporter 😂.He is really nice.

I'd like to know how a consistent failure like her manages to get air time on her new funds. I started investing since 2020, I'm currently up 20%, compared to her minus ???%. Any coverage for me?

Why do you censor comments on the Israeli war with hamas??? Is Putin running this channel???

Ark has produced a negative return over the past 5 years. Ark's portfolio strategy is severely flawed for 3 reasons; 1. They must need to sell a stock once it hits 10% of their fund, thereby requiring them to sell a high performing stock in exchange for a lower performing stock (to attract institutional investors, who like smaller allocations), 2. Ark generally does not invest in large cap tech companies, other than Tesla (which are likely to be the big winners regarding innovations), and 3. They do not take into account changes in interest rates (an egregious oversight given that their stocks are generally HIGHLY interest rate sensitive). To that last point, Cathie Wood has been consistently wrong on the direction of interest rates and continues to be so. Bottom Line: You would have been much better off investing in a low-cost index fund than an Ark fund over the past 5 years.

How about not turning off comments, when it's israel news. What are you afraid of? That people dislike Israel as much as palestine?

[MarktYertd]

Europe being dependent on the usa since 1945😢. Why can't europe be independent from the usa like china is?.

[gorishokgo]

send home all islamists from eu ! Why eu can't be like Poland? Maybe politics need bloody money from islamists?

[fletch]

The host kept asking the same question, Cathie has answered his questions very well. Move on dude. Very negative host. Should have ask more questions regarding the funds and what companies stocks are being bought

[billyrussell]

Why cut the comment section off on the new video DW?!?

[marcus_b]

"STAR TECH INVESTOR" ???? lmao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[bogdar]

She is talking like Trump, so great, so big. But she has a point, if she gets it right it will be great returns

[beecnulr]

Well, there are many, many ETF's and mutual funds whose "target" is the European market featuring new frontier funds.
These fund managers are well connected to the various European markets and companies. Not sure why any investor needs to chase after new ones managed by Woods.
It is expensive to investigate companies there and the large fund outfits such as Vanguard, Schwab, Fidelity, etc. already have the know-how and experience. In replicating some other such fund, Woods is only driving up her potential management fees. Not good for customers.

She doesn’t see ww3 is just around the corner. 😅
