Ark Invest Previous EV Stock Buy
A few days back, Ark Invest bought Tesla shares amid an EV stock buy. ARK’s strategy is aligned with this substantial acquisition of the market leader in electric vehicles, demonstrating a strong belief in the company’s potential for future growth.

The money raised was then used to raise awareness of the business. At that time, ARKQ purchased 5.684 shares of TSLA, ARKK purchased 61,073 shares, and ARKW purchased 13,199 shares.
