I DCA some $$$ into ARKVX. SpaceX, Neuralink, Figure AI, xAI, OpenAI, Anthropic, Epic Games, etc. These are all companies I want exposure to, so I deal with the high fees. If you’re mainly interested in SpaceX and XAI… I’d consider just buying some TSLA and waiting for the SpaceX IPO that should come along this summer (rumors are that TSLA shareholders may have priority when it comes to participating in other Elon owned company IPOs)
This is why I am invested in ARKVX. I get a small piece of the pie in Open AI and others. https://preview.redd.it/z8hwrwk5x1zf1.png?width=934&format=png&auto=webp&s=3b089a8e2d6a15f9c5a3b94e13d7a3da9d6c018a
I invest in it through ARKVX
I really like the exposre of potential IPOs on the ARKVX
>*I actually had some amazing positions that would have tripled my money (or even more), but I sold too early and held on to the losing trades.* This story is as old as time: take profits too early and let the losses run. The story of literally every losing trader. The secret is: take losses early and minimize them, and let the winners run. Literally the opposite of the strategy employed by the OP. As far as what OP should do, if he has no other assets, and minimal income, then declare chapter 7 bankruptcy. If he does not qualify for chapter 7, then pay it off. Each month put 5% of income into ARKVX, ARKK, SPY, and QQQ.
Based on the current price relative to the underlying assets, ARKVX offers significantly better value than DXYZ. ARKVX’s price is closely aligned with its NAV (near 0% premium/discount), ensuring investors pay a fair price for the portfolio’s assets. In contrast, DXYZ’s \~271% premium to NAV indicates severe overvaluation, meaning investors are paying far more than the underlying assets are worth, increasing the risk of losses if the premium narrows.

ARKVX on SoFi is a close ended ETF that holds 4 of elons private companies with spacex being its largest holding and OpenAI it’s 2nd. I invested 1,000 just because I like you wanted to be invested in some of these companies. That being said I don’t fully understand how this ETF functions or the risk involved when investing into it. A lot of mixed reviews & opinions. There’s a public ETF that holds I think like 13% of spacex but I can’t remember the ticker right now.
seems the only reason to invest in ARKVX is for a piece SpaceX but i keep getting bombed by Cathie Wood and her YT ads shoving this shit down my throat
I think $XOVR is even better than $DXYZ because it does not have ridiculous premiums and the fees are much lower at 0.75% compared to 2.5% for DXYZ and \~5% of ARKVX.
A much better alternative is $XOVR which trades in the Nasdaq, so you can buy into it through your regular broker. The expense ratio is much lower at 0.75%. Also, the fund has much more SpaceX in it than ARKVX, and has daily liquidity, so you have a lot more control on your investment than with ARKVX.
There are a few options that I have found: $XOVR $DXYZ $ARKVX To me, the best option is XOVR because of a few reasons: \- First, it has the lowest fees out of the three options (0.75% vs DXYZ's 2.50% vs ARKVX 5%) \- Second, it has daily liquidity while being marked-to-market. DXYZ is not market to market so investors are currently paying 10X compared to what the assets are actually worth. ARKV is marked-to-market, but it does not offer investors daily liquidity as it is a closed-end interval fund. This means that investors can only liquidate once very quarter and up to only 5% of the assets in the fund. This means it is a very illiquid investment. \- Third, is where the rest of the fund is invested in. The other two options are mostly all private equity. In the case of DXYZ, they bought into their positions during the peak of the valuation time period with very high multiples, meaning they are carrying losses that will be hard to recover. XOVR, on the other hand, has the rest of their assets invested on the ER30TR index, which is from the same firm as the ETF (EntrepreneurShares). The index fund has a 20 year track record with good results.
Although, Sofi is the only place your can by ARKVX, no other platform is allowing retail trader to buy it.
Proceed with the downvotes but ARKVX actually looks interesting. Spacex, OpenAI, xAI exposure at actual NAV. I can’t quite figure it out but they must have a SPV that’s slowly feeding shares into the fund as assets come into the fund.
ARKVX has some really good names in it aswell; Epic Games, OpenAI, Anthropic, Discord, etc
Cathie Wood's Ark venture fund(ARKVX) that you can buy thru sofi. You can also buy SpaceX share thru HIIV or similar platform by placing bid. Some people mentioned how to get SpaceX shares.

Just a quick correction. Baron Focused Growth is a mutual fund, not an ETF. It's not traded on exchanges. Also there are two variants. BFGIX is for institutional shares, and BFGFX is for retail shares (slightly higher expense ratio but lower initial dollar requirement). Another option is ARK Venture Fund (ARKVX), which is also a mutual fund, with an eye-watering 2.9% net expense ratio. But it also holds other promising private startups like OpenAI, Anthropic, Discord, Epic Games, Replit, etc. This fund is more legit than DXYZ, imo.
Just buy ARKVX if you want SpaceX instead of all these pump and dump low float scam stocks lol
Yes. As well as a stake in OpenAI, Anthropic, and a bunch of other private companies. Most brokerage apps don’t have ARKVX available though. Sofi to my knowledge may be the only one.
Closest you’re going to get is through buying ARKVX, which has an 11% weighting in SpaceX.
ARKVX is 12.7% holdings in spacex https://www.ark-funds.com/funds/arkvx#hold
Very true, a lot of them are holding big aerospace and defense companies that don't have as much growth potential as small caps. I like XAR but haven't invested yet as I like individual stock picking over ETFs personally. And I know I'll get shit for this but ARKVX because its the only way to get exposure to SpaceX. I'll take another look at MDA. I really only glanced through it before and dismissed it. Might be worth the time though.
ARKVX invests in spacex
I've been thinking of pulling the trigger on ARKVX.
I normally would never touch an ARK fund, but thoughts on this $ARKVX - venture fund with 12% stack in SpaceX
Not a fan of a lot of her ETF holdings, as you can see from some of the responses here, folks are giving you pretty good reasons why. $ARKVX is the only thing of hers I like- it’s her “venture fund” with shares of Private companies like SpaceX. As a non-accredited investor thats one of the only ways I know of to get access to something like that. I see value there, especially if one of those heavy hitter companies were to go Public.
“Destiny Tech100 levies an estimated fee of 4.98%, according to its SEC filing.” - stolen from a Reuters article ARKVX charges 2.9% from their prospectus. With fees this high I wouldn’t consider either a long term hold. At best this is a short term play on IPO or funding round news.
ARKVX. Regards don't know because they can't buy it on RH. Say your goodbyes to the wife and kids
Thanks y'all for the opinions btw. No ARKVX for me. Best of luck to my buddy :) Just bought some CEIX at market open as a swing and will see how it does.
Thanks for the replies everybody! I told him the same thing—invest in NASDAQ. But he always done these riskier moves (so far unsuccessfully, but I'll leave him to it...he has the $ and you never know haha). Looking further and taking all your info into account, I will not be investing in this. I'm happy with the investments I'm in, and will get the ARKVX updates from him as he begins investing soon.
Has anyone looked at the ARK Venture Fund (ARKVX)? I've never invested in anything Cathie Wood related (and I'm glad I didn't so far), but I have a friend who's a LOT riskier and he's going to be making it his main investment vehicle (invest with each paycheck). There's a high management fee of 5.76% and you can only sell at certain periods. But it does give you a chance to invest in companies like Figure, Anthropic, and SpaceX. I was considering putting a very small amount in at some point. Just wanted to see if others had looked at it before.
