Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest Doubles Down on Mag 7 Stocks—GOOGL, NVDA, TSLA Lead Q3 Buying Spree

Wall Street's tech oracle just placed another big bet.

Ark Invest—Cathie Wood's disruptive-tech playground—went all-in on Magnificent 7 stocks last quarter. Google parent Alphabet, AI juggernaut Nvidia, and Elon's Tesla topped the shopping list.

Because nothing says 'innovation' like chasing the same trillion-dollar horses as every other hedge fund.

Wood's team loaded up during Q3's market dips, signaling conviction in these giants despite their already-massive valuations. The move comes as Ark's flagship funds claw back from 2024's crypto winter bruises.

One question lingers: Is this visionary foresight—or just FOMO dressed in ARK's signature thematic investing wrap?
