The Tesla Trade
Ark Invest's $ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW.US)$ acquired 33,143 shares of Tesla, a move that came on the heels of a turbulent period for the company. The value of this trade, based on the closing price of $215.99 on the same day, is approximately $7.16 million.
This purchase is particularly noteworthy given the context of Tesla's recent performance. The company's second-quarter financial results, reported on Tuesday, showed a revenue beat but an EPS miss.
Furthermore, Tesla's automotive revenue dropped 7% YoY to $19.9 billion, marking its second straight quarter of YoY sales declines.

Despite these challenges, Ark Invest has shown $CONFIDENCE IN (01967.HK)$ Tesla's long-term prospects.
On Tuesday, Ark Invest sold nearly $3.7 million worth of Tesla shares in continuation of a recent trend.
