Cathie Wood's ARK Investment Management made a decisive MOVE Wednesday, acquiring $28.2 million worth of AMD shares across five ETFs following the chipmaker's worst single-day performance since 2017. The 141,108-share purchase came despite AMD beating Q4 earnings expectations with $1.53 EPS and $10.27 billion revenue.

Market sentiment turned sharply when AMD's Q1 2026 revenue guidance of $9.5-$10.1 billion failed to satisfy investors, triggering a 17% plunge to $200.19. The selloff occurred even as data center revenue grew 39% to $5.4 billion, powered by AI accelerator and processor demand.

ARK's contrarian bet aligns with its tech-focused strategy that delivered 35-37% returns for its flagship ETFs in 2025, outperforming the S&P 500's 16% gain. The purchase highlights institutional confidence in AMD's long-term positioning within the AI hardware sector.

The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
