ARK believes that after the tech and telecom bust and the 2008-2009 meltdown, there was an accelerated shift to passive and benchmark investing, causing a void in the public markets when it came to innovation. While broad benchmarks reflect past successes, ARK seeks to capture future growth and avoid value traps in traditional benchmarks.
“The innovation evolving today should generate about $60 trillion in business value and wealth creation over the next 15 years. Today, it accounts for less than $6 trillion, giving investors an opportunity to capitalize if they have positioned their portfolios on the right side of innovation.”
