Ark ETFs to Add OpenAI Stake as Retail Investors Chase Tech Boom

OpenAI is set to gain exposure across some of Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management ETFs, the latest test of whether surging demand for pre-IPO stakes can be pushed into vehicles built for daily trading.

The exposure would come via three Ark funds, offering investors a rare pathway into one of the most sought-after private companies. These include the flagship ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), ARK Blockchain & Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF) and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW).
