ARKQ bought 128,970 shares of Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions and 61,209 shares of Kodiak AI, while ARKX added 54,328 shares of Kratos. Across other flagship funds, ARK Invest also bought 137,909 shares of Tempus AI, 92,198 shares of Intellia Therapeutics and 30,036 shares of Circle Internet Group through ARKK, while ARKF and ARKW separately added more Circle shares. The firm additionally trimmed positions in AMD, Twist Bioscience, CareDx and Veracyte.ARK recently highlighted that SpaceX represented 17% of the ARK Venture Fund’s net assets as of March 31, making it the fund’s largest holding. The firm said investors in the ARK Venture Fund gain exposure to SpaceX directly through cap-table ownership rather than secondary-market vehicles, SPVs or structured products. ARK also outlined how the fund intends to manage the position if SpaceX eventually goes public, saying that the IPO would not disrupt the fund’s broader crossover structure.“The investment vehicle we built will work as intended,” ARK said, noting that any post-IPO lockup period would allow incoming capital to be redeployed into other private tech companies, while gradually rebalancing the portfolio back toward its long-term 80% private-market target.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Cathie Wood Sees ‘Voracious’ SpaceX IPO Demand</h2>The latest ARK selling came shortly after Wood said investor appetite for SpaceX remains “voracious” ahead of a potential IPO. “So the demand is voracious out there,” Wood said in a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/audio/2026-05-06/bloomberg-talks-cathie-wood-podcast">Bloomberg interview</a> last week. “Only $75 billion. Yes, it’s a big IPO. But just think about how SpaceX has reawakened the dream of space exploration.”Wood also warned that the eventual listing could trigger a major supply-demand imbalance. “I think there’ll be supply-demand imbalance in the beginning,” she said. “You’ll see that pop. It will be volatile, I would imagine.” Wood additionally suggested that SpaceX’s orbital data-center ambitions could eventually become far larger than Starlink itself. “We have not added orbital data centers in,” Wood said.Investor excitement around SpaceX has accelerated in recent weeks as CEO Elon Musk positions the company as a vertically integrated launch, telecom, AI and infrastructure giant rather than merely a rocket company. Recently, Anthropic secured access to over 300 megawatts of processing capacity from SpaceX’s Colossus 1 facility in Memphis, Tennessee.<h2 class="st-heading-2">RKLB Q1 Earnings Review</h2>The growing SpaceX IPO excitement comes even as Rocket Lab continues delivering strong operational momentum of its own. Rocket Lab reported first-quarter (Q1) revenue of $200.3 million, up 63.5% year-over-year and above analyst expectations of $189.41 million. The company also guided for second-quarter revenue of $232.5 million, while forecasting its first positive quarterly EBITDA later this year.Founder and CEO Peter Beck called it “the strongest Q1 in Rocket Lab’s history,” highlighting record backlog levels and accelerating launch demand. Rocket Lab’s backlog surpassed $2 billion on the back of Electron, Haste and Neutron contracts.Recently, Rocket Lab confirmed the completion of a major Neutron stage-separation test campaign, validating one of the rocket’s most technically complex systems ahead of its targeted launch debut later this year. The company also announced a contract worth over $200 million covering five Neutron launches and three Electron missions for an undisclosed customer.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Do Retail Traders Feel About RKLB?</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for RKLB was ‘extremely bullish’ amid a 580% surge in 24-hour message volumes.<figure class="image"><img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/rklb_ss_png_8409ed56b6.webp" alt="rklb ss.png" width="974" height="141"><figcaption>RKLB sentiment and message volume as of May 12 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One user&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/Willd123/message/653041644">said</a>, “I'm buying this baby all the way up to $500.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>PLTR slid nearly 14% last week, its worst showing in a year.</li><li>Donald Trump praised Palantir’s technology for powering the U.S. defense capabilities.</li><li>Stocktwits sentiment for PLTR has improved to ‘extremely bullish.’</li></ul>Cathie Wood-led Ark Investment Management bought more shares of Palantir Technologies on&nbsp;Friday, as the stock capped its worst week in a year, even as President Donald Trump endorsed the AI data analytics firm for its role in U.S. defense.Wood’s ARK Invest acquired 85,485 shares of Palantir, valued at approximately $11.15 million, underscoring continued interest in the firm despite recent weakness. Notably, ARK reduced its position in Advanced Micro Devices, selling $10.5 million worth of stock in the latest series of trades.To be sure, Wood hasn’t been “bullish buy-only” on Palantir, but has been actively trading around the position, trimming into strength and adding on weakness.Ark made Friday’s Palantir trades on its&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/ARKK">ARK Innovation ETF</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/ARKQ">ARK Autonomous Technology &amp; Robotics ETF</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/ARKW">ARK Next Generation Internet ETF</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/ARKF">ARK Fintech Innovation ETF</a> and&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/ARKX">ARK Space Exploration &amp; Innovation ETF</a> funds.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Trump Lauds Palantir</h2>Meanwhile, Trump lauded Palantir in a post to Truth Social on Friday. “Palantir Technologies (PLTR) has proven to have great war fighting capabilities and equipment,” Trump posted. “Just ask our enemies!!!”The U.S. military is reportedly utilizing Palantir’s Maven Smart System platform to identify targets in the Middle East, tied to strikes on Iran that began in late February. Palantir counts on the government, including the Pentagon and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, for more than half of its U.S. revenue, according to CNBC.As the conflict escalated, Palantir quickly became a key name on investors’ radar. However, the momentum reversed sharply last week, with PLTR tumbling nearly 14% – its worst performance in a year – as a temporary U.S.-Iran deal signaled a potential de-escalation of the war.&nbsp;The war is still not over, though. The U.S. said on Sunday that it would begin a blockade of ships entering or leaving the Strait of Hormuz, after U.S.-Iran ceasefire talks in Pakistan ended without an agreement, a development that would likely weigh on global markets as they open in the new week.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Retail View On PLTR Improves</h2>On Stocktwits, the retail sentiment for PLTR climbed higher and was ‘extremely bullish’ as of late Sunday. Still, traders remained deeply divided, with bulls pointing to the company's deepening entrenchment in critical government defense contracts, while bears question the sustainability of its premium valuation and the impact of the evolving AI landscape.“$PLTR If you haven’t figured it out by now, Trumps pltr tweet was a last chance “buy the dip” signal! It can’t get any clearer, people,” one&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/Al_Bundy_007/message/650052343">said</a>.Another&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/The_Fundamentalist/message/650072690">wrote</a>: “blowout earnings in 16 trading days. War is still going on. AI boom is still very much underway. Exponential growth. No debt. No close competition. CEO has Einstein hair.”Palantir has yet to set a date for its first-quarter results announcement. It typically happens in the first week of May.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Michael Burry Complicates PLTR Trade</h2>Palantir trades have been complicated by a short campaign from investor Michael Burry, a closely watched market voice best known for predicting and profiting from the 2008 financial crisis.Last week, he put out a questionable view that Palantir was losing software market share to Anthropic. He later&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/palantir-selloff-retail-traders-shrug-off-michael-burry-s-now-deleted-short-thesis-nhs-boost-adds-to-optimism/cZJgy3tRIr9">deleted those posts</a>.Burry is short on Palantir, a position he disclosed last September, and has repeatedly voiced concerns over the company’s business, including alleged inflated accounting and high spending on private jets by its chief executive, Alex Karp.With last week’s slide,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/PLTR">Palantir shares</a> are down 28% year-to-date.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/san-disk-to-join-nasdaq-100-retail-traders-debate-whether-red-hot-rally-has-more-room-to-run/cZJFSB9RIM0">SanDisk To Join Nasdaq-100: Retail Traders Debate Whether Red-Hot Rally Has More Room To Run</a>&nbsp;

(TSLA) slipped to a seven-month low on Wednesday, breaking from the broader Magnificent Seven rally, even as Cathie Wood’s ARK Investment Management continued accumulating shares through the pullback.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/TSLA">TSLA stock</a> fell over 3% on Wednesday to $343.25, logging its fourth consecutive session of losses.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Ark Adds TSLA Shares During Pullback</h2>ARK Invest increased exposure to Tesla across its flagship ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), ARK Autonomous Technology &amp; Robotics ETF (ARKQ) and ARK Space Exploration &amp; Innovation ETF (ARKX) this week, purchasing 79,845 shares worth about $27.8 million.The firm bought 39,691 shares on Monday, followed by 6,944 on Tuesday and another 33,210 on Wednesday, extending a pattern of buying into weakness rather than trimming exposure.Tesla remains ARKK's largest holding, accounting for 9.72% of the portfolio as of Wednesday. The ETF declined 12% in the latest quarter, its weakest performance since January 2025, with Tesla’s decline weighing heavily on returns.Wood has repeatedly emphasized autonomy as central to ARK’s long-term investment case. In a February interview with Morningstar, she said autonomous mobility could scale into a $10 trillion opportunity, adding Tesla could become autonomous in 25% to 50% of major U.S. cities by the end of this year, depending on regulatory progress.&nbsp;ARK still projects a $2,600 Tesla price target by 2029, implying a potential market cap of $9.75 trillion, excluding contributions from Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Tesla Trails Magnificent Seven Peers</h2>Tesla’s decline in share price underscores a widening gap with its mega-cap tech peers, who have benefited from investor enthusiasm tied to AI infrastructure spending.The stock has fallen 13% over the past month, making it the worst-performing “Magnificent Seven” stock over the period and the weakest performer in the group year-to-date. Short interest in Tesla also remains the highest among the peer group at 1.6%, compared with 1.1% for Microsoft, the second-weakest performer in the lot year-to-date.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Tesla Winds Down Model S, X Production</h2>Late Wednesday, CEO Elon Musk said only a few hundred Model S and Model X vehicles remain in inventory, urging customers to place orders for the legacy premium models.Tesla plans to end production of both vehicles next quarter and repurpose the Fremont factory's capacity toward manufacturing the Optimus humanoid robot, marking a major shift away from two of the company’s longest-running vehicle platforms.Deliveries of Tesla’s “other models” category, which includes Model S, Model X and Cybertruck, totaled about 16,130 vehicles in the first quarter, while the Model 3 and Model Y accounted for roughly 341,893 of Tesla’s 358,023 total deliveries.<h2 class="st-heading-2">JPMorgan Warning Overshadows FSD Update</h2>Tesla’s slump in “Magnificent Seven” rally also comes after JPMorgan reiterated its ‘Underweight’ rating and flagged a 60% downside to the stock, warning that expansion into higher-volume vehicle segments carries execution risks tied to demand, competition and pricing pressure.The bank lowered its 2026 earnings per share (EPS) forecast to $1.8 after Tesla’s Q1 delivery update, citing uncertainty around demand and inventory.Meanwhile, Tesla began rolling out Full Self-Driving (Supervised) version 14.3, introducing upgrades to reinforcement-learning training, neural-network vision processing and performance in complex driving environments. The update also improves system responsiveness by 20%, alongside enhancements to emergency-vehicle detection, intersection handling and parking behavior.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Do Retail Traders Feel About TSLA?</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment for TSLA has remained ‘bearish’ over the past week amid a 112% surge in message volumes over the same period.<figure class="image"><img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/nio_ss_png_52fd30ebe4.webp" alt="nio ss.png" width="970" height="145"><figcaption>TSLA sentiment and message volume as of April 9 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One user&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/Jedi_Mike/message/649785777">said</a>, “Cathie Wood this week bought at this price.
