Last year's hottest Wall Street fund manager enters a deep freeze
CBSN
Cathie Wood, one of Wall Street's fastest rising stars, has gone from best to worst in less than a year.
Wood, CEO and chief investment officer at ARK Investments, had three of the six top-performing major exchange traded funds last year. ETFs, diversified investment products that can be easily bought and sold, have been one of Wall Street's most popular products over the past decade. This year is the mirror opposite. Wood is again on a top 10 list, but this time for worst-performing funds. Of 615 U.S. stock market ETFs tracked by research firm FactSet, ARK's three biggest funds rank in the bottom 2%. The ARK Innovation ETF, which soared 152% in 2020, has lost nearly a third of its value in the past three months.More Related News
Out of air and pinned by an alligator to the bottom of the Cooper River in South Carolina, Will Georgitis decided his only chance to survive might be to lose his arm. The alligator had fixed its jaws around Georgitis' arm and after he tried to escape by stabbing it with the screwdriver he uses to pry fossilized shark teeth off the riverbed, the gator shook the diver and dragged him 50 feet down, Georgitis told The Post and Courier.
