Cathie Wood's ARK ETFs once again saw significant transactions on Tuesday, August 12, 2025, with a focus on technology and biotech stocks. The largest transaction of the day was the purchase of 738,367 shares of The Trade Desk Inc ( $TTD (-1,26%) ) with a total value of $39,266,357. This move underscores ARK's continued confidence in the digital advertising platform, where the fund had already significantly increased its positions in recent days.
Another notable transaction involved Block Inc ( $SQ (+2,01%) ), formerly known as Square. Here ARK sold 215,543 shares, representing a sizable value of $15,741,105. This sale represents one of the larger divestitures of the day and could indicate a strategic realignment of ARK's position towards the financial services and digital payments company.
ARK also made a significant purchase of 643,406 shares of Pinterest Inc ( $PINS ) worth $21,998,051. The social media company has repeatedly been in ARK's focus in the past, as evidenced by the continuous purchases over the past week. This trend points to a bullish assessment of Pinterest's growth prospects on the part of ARK.
In the biotech sector, ARK's ARK ETF purchased 128,896 shares of CRISPR Therapeutics AG ( $CRSP (+2,06%) ) for a total value of $714,567, continuing its investment in the gene-editing company. On the flip side, various ARK ETFs divested shares of DraftKings Inc ( $DKNG (-1,04%) ), Guardant Health Inc ( $GH (+1,66%) ), Robinhood Markets Inc ($HOOD (-4,63%) ), Palantir Technologies Inc ($PLTR (-0,74%) ), Roblox Corp ( $RBLX ) and Shopify Inc ($SHOP (+0,91%) ). The largest sell-off was DraftKings, with 221,203 shares worth $9,452,004 sold.
Other notable buys included Exact Sciences Corp ( $EXAS (+4,11%) ) and Personalis Inc ( $PSNL (+2,74%) ). ARK bought 93,753 and 134,035 shares worth $3,835,435 and $603,157 respectively. The continued purchases in these stocks could indicate a focused strategy targeting innovative healthcare companies.
Smaller transactions were also part of the day's activity. ARK bought shares in Compass Pathways PLC ( $CMPS (+1,66%) ) and 10X Genomics Inc ( $TXG (+5,68%) ). Despite the smaller dollar amounts, these purchases could be part of a long-term strategy that focuses on up-and-coming companies in the respective sectors.
Some of dear Cathie's transactions don't need to be understood but well, the young lady's returns speak for themselves.
$ARKK (+1,22%) and $ARKF (+0,15%) over 70% return since 365 days, I can only shine with +27% with my portfolio.
I will remain invested in $TTD (-1,26%) My current portfolio has a lot of risk, as I have generated some cash.
At the moment I'm considering whether I should possibly $HMWO (-0,1%) and $EQQQ (-0,38%) or just the $VUSA (-0,19%) into the portfolio.
Temporarily sold $AMD (+5,43%) +35%, $HIMS (-0,98%) +15%, $DOCN (+0,37%) +9%.
I would re-enter Hims and AMD at certain prices and possibly add other companies to the portfolio if they fit my selection.
My positions:
On the watchlist
The current earnings wave shows impressively how differently AI and tech stocks are performing: $BBAI (-1,19%) BigBear.ai collapses by almost 30% after disappointing figures and it is by no means a new $PLTR (-0,74%) Palantir. Investors should avoid the stock and focus on profitable growth stocks. $FTNT (+0,86%) Although Fortinet exceeded expectations, its weak outlook in the firewall segment is causing uncertainty. $TTD (-1,26%) Trade Desk and $AI (+2,03%) C3.ai are unable to translate their technical expertise into sustained market confidence, while $DUOL Duolingo increases sales and profits significantly thanks to efficient AI integration. Palantir maintains its role as a defensive AI play with strong roots in the government sector. This divergence shows that execution business model and sustainable profitability are more crucial than mere buzzwords. Will market selection in the AI sector be even tougher in the future?

Are you therefore continuing to hold on to your shares - or are you using the record figures as an opportunity to sell some or all of them?

Short attempt no.1 $PLTR (-0,74%)
Lower Saxony's Minister of the Interior does not want to place police data in the hands of such a company. According to Palantir, data leakage is ruled out.
Palantir is a US company with opaque algorithms and questionable connections. Lower Saxony's Interior Minister Daniela Behrens (SPD) told the Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung. "For me, it is crucial that highly sensitive police data can end up in the hands of such a company."
In-house developments may take longer, "but they strengthen trust in the police", said Behrens.
In response to an inquiry from the German press agency dpa, Bremen stated that there is no legal basis in the police law for the use of the system to avert danger. Interior Senator Ulrich Mäurer (SPD) referred to a resolution by the Conference of Interior Ministers to further strengthen internal security and strive for digital sovereignty in Europe. AI-supported data analysis is "indispensable for our internal security", including in Bremen.
Meanwhile, Palantir rejected accusations that there is a lack of data security. "A transfer or outflow of data - for example to the USA - is technically impossible," a company spokesperson told dpa. In Bavaria, North Rhine-Westphalia and Hesse, where the police use Palantir programs, the software is operated "exclusively" on police servers.
Palantir: radio cell queries and social media
The Gotham Palantir police and intelligence software combines data sources, which is highly controversial. Calvin Baus, spokesman for the Chaos Computer Club (CCC), said: "The software merges data on a large scale. This means that if I call the police to report an accident or make a statement as a witness, I will forever be considered a suspect in Palantir's software." Radio cell queries, for example, are also used as a source if people are "simply in the wrong place at the wrong time".
It is also possible to link information from social networks, but the CCC has no information about the specific deployment. And whether the police would disclose such an operation is questionable, according to insiders.
Now that I have reached this milestone, I would like to present my portfolio again. I am 39 years old, married and have a 9-month-old daughter. Due to my wife's parental leave and my own (3 months), I had to reduce my monthly savings rate this year and was also unable to make any major additional purchases during the dip in April. We live in an apartment in Munich that is still encumbered with EUR 220,000. I own 60% of the apartment and my wife 40%.
The aim is to be debt-free by the age of 50, double the value of the deposit and generate a dividend of EUR 1,000 per month.
My portfolio currently has $PLTR (-0,74%) and of course I also have a few securities at the start that are clouding the picture: $P911 (-0,65%) , $NKE (+2,78%)
$PEP (+0,46%)
Comments, questions and remarks are always welcome.
I have sold my last 500 pieces $PLTR (-0,74%) sold.
Sometimes you have to stop when it's at its best.
Due to the rise of $AAPL (+0,52%) the last few days, I am back in the black and have been considering reducing my position significantly or closing it completely and investing it in $PLTR (-0,74%) and put it into
