CleaRank Financial AI

ARKK closed at $85.69, above its 200-day simple moving average of $78.14 and slightly below its 50-day simple moving average of $85.74.

The fund is down 3.64% over one year but up 15.74% year to date, and its 3-month return of 10.39% points to recent recovery momentum. Trading volume of 6,820,000 shares is 43.40% above its average, which signals heavier participation during the latest session. The fund is a thematic, actively managed portfolio of disruptive innovation names spanning artificial intelligence, genomics, fintech, robotics and digital assets. Its heaviest weight sits in Healthcare at 30.14%, followed by Technology at 26.70%, so sector concentration drives most of its day-to-day moves. Trend signals are mixed, with price below the 20-day EMA of $87.77, so near-term buyers have not yet pushed the fund back above short-term averages.

What the numbers say

CleaRank Financial AI's reading of ARKK's holdings, performance and risks.

The fund

ARKK, the ARK Innovation ETF, is an actively managed mid-cap growth fund from ARK ETF Trust with a 0.75% expense ratio and net assets of $7,916,893,184.

The cost of holding it works out to $75.00 per $10,000 invested each year. Its sector mix is Healthcare at 30.14%, Technology at 26.70%, Financial Services at 16.00%, Consumer Cyclical at 11.80%, Industrials at 11.49% and Communication Services at 3.87%. Asset allocation is 95.80% stocks, 1.21% convertibles, 1.21% preferred stocks and 2.55% other holdings. Turnover of 43.00% reflects an active approach that rebalances around innovation themes.

Performance
The Healthcare weight of 30.14% and Technology weight of 26.70% together account for more than half of the fund, so results in genomics and software will carry most of the fund's earnings sensitivity. The 3-month return of 10.39% suggests investors are rewarding recent growth exposure, while the 1-year return of 3.64% shows that gains have been uneven.
Key risks
The largest risk is concentration in Healthcare at 30.14% and Technology at 26.70%, which means a sell-off in biotech or software would hit a large share of the portfolio at once. The 5-year return of -4.06% shows the fund has struggled through prior rate-driven drawdowns for growth stocks. The 43.00% turnover and active theme selection add manager risk, since holdings change as ARK adjusts conviction.

What the AI sees

The 14-day RSI reads 45.74, which is neutral momentum with no clear overbought or oversold signal.

Price of $85.69 is 9.65% above the 200-day simple moving average at $78.14, so that average acts as support. Price sits 0.04% below the 50-day simple moving average at $85.74, which now acts as near-term resistance. The 20-day EMA at $87.77 sits above the price, so it is the first overhead level bulls must reclaim. MACD at 0.26 is positive, while the Stochastic at 31.40 and CCI at -174.82 show short-term weakness that has not yet turned.

ProTips
  1. Compare the 0.75% expense ratio against other thematic growth ETFs before buying, since fees compound over long holding periods.
  2. Watch whether price reclaims the 20-day EMA at $87.77, which would be an early signal of improving momentum.
Market outlook
ARKK is set up for a range-bound period between the 200-day simple moving average at $78.14 and the 20-day EMA at $87.77 over the next six to twelve months. A close above $87.77 would support a move toward the prior high region, while a break below $78.14 would weaken the trend. Investors should track whether Healthcare and Technology weights keep leading the fund's returns, since a rotation away from growth themes would change the thesis.

Questions people ask

Answered from the figures on this page, as of October 16, 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the expense ratio of ARKK and what does it cost to hold?
ARKK charges an expense ratio of 0.75%, which costs $75.00 per $10,000 invested each year. With net assets of $7,916,893,184, the fund is a large and liquid thematic vehicle. Investors compare that fee with the category before choosing a growth-focused ETF.
Which sectors does ARKK hold and how concentrated is it?
ARKK is concentrated in Healthcare at 30.14% and Technology at 26.70%, which together make up more than half of the fund. Financial Services is 16.00%, Consumer Cyclical 11.80%, Industrials 11.49% and Communication Services 3.87%. This concentration means sector news in biotech or software moves the fund sharply.
Does ARKK pay a dividend yield for income investors?
ARKK pays a distribution yield of 0.43% with a dividend rate of $0.36 per share. Its yield is minimal, so income investors should view the fund mainly as a growth vehicle. Its return profile depends on price appreciation rather than payouts.
Is ARKK a good entry point after its recent move?
ARKK at $85.69 sits 9.65% above its 200-day simple moving average, while the 50-day simple moving average at $85.74 sits just above it. The 14-day RSI of 45.7 is neutral, so there is no oversold entry signal yet. Waiting for a reclaim of the 20-day EMA at $87.77 would confirm the trend.
What are the biggest risks of holding ARKK in October 2026?
The main risks are concentration in Healthcare at 30.14% and Technology at 26.70%, plus the fund's 43.00% turnover under active management. Its 5-year return of -4.06% shows past drawdowns. Rate-sensitive growth names could pressure the fund if the market rotates away from innovation themes.
Is ARKK in an uptrend?
Not clearly. ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) trades at $85.69, above its 200-day but below its 50-day moving average ($78.14 and $85.74). Its 14-day RSI on daily closes is 45.7, in neutral territory.
What is ARKK's biggest drop in the last 10 years?
ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK)'s worst peak-to-trough fall over the last 10 years was -80.7%, from February 2021 to December 2022 (with dividends reinvested). It has not regained that peak yet and is still 43.8% below it. Over the same period, 74% of 1-year holding periods ended with a gain.

Over the last 10 years, June has been ARKK's strongest month on average (+7.06%, rising in 9 of 10 years) and March its weakest (-4.04%, rising in 3 of 10 years). Seasonal averages describe the past and do not predict a given year.
How closely does ARKK move with the stock market?
Over the past year ARKK's daily returns were strongly correlated with the S&P 500 (SPY) (+0.80). Nasdaq 100 (QQQ): +0.81; Bitcoin (BTC): +0.61; Gold (XAU): +0.25. A figure near +1 means the two usually move together; near 0 means little relationship.
What would $10,000 invested in ARKK be worth today?
$10,000 put into ARKK in October 2016 would be worth about $45,348 today with dividends reinvested, against about $42,525 for the same amount in the S&P 500 on the same basis.
