Cathie Wood's ARK ETFs have published their daily trades for Tuesday, May 28th, 2024, reflecting a series of strategic moves in the tech and biotech sectors. Leading the day's activity was a significant purchase of UIPATH INC (NYSE:PATH) shares, with ARK investing an impressive $8,561,915 across its ARKK and ARKW ETFs. This move underscores ARK's ongoing confidence in the automation software company.

Another notable investment was in NATERA INC (NASDAQ:NTRA), where ARK added 49,897 shares split between its ARKK and ARKG ETFs, totaling $5,464,220. This purchase comes as ARK continues to bolster its stake in the genetic testing firm.

In the semiconductor space, ARK's ARKW ETF bought 7,861 shares of ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES INC (NASDAQ:AMD (NASDAQ:AMD)) valued at $1,307,755, indicating a bullish stance on the chipmaker's market prospects.

The ARKK and ARKW ETFs also increased their holdings in ROBLOX CORP (NYSE:RBLX) by purchasing 135,357 shares, translating to $4,422,112, as ARK seems to be capitalizing on the gaming platform's growth trajectory.

However, the day was not just about acquisitions. ARK made a significant sale of UNITY SOFTWARE INC (NYSE:U) shares, offloading a total of 942,082 across four ETFs for a value of $18,276,390. This move might suggest a strategic shift or profit-taking from the video game software development company.

In the biotech sector, ARK sold 28,670 shares of MODERNA INC (NASDAQ:MRNA) for $4,776,708, possibly adjusting its position after the stock's recent performance. Similarly, ARK reduced its stake in NU HOLDINGS LTD (NYSE:NU) by selling 255,721 shares at a value of $2,999,607 through its ARKW ETF.

Additional trades included modest buys in 3D SYSTEMS CORP (NYSE:DDD), GUARDANT HEALTH INC (NASDAQ:GH), and IRIDIUM COMMUNICATIONS INC (NASDAQ:IRDM), and smaller sales in EXACT SCIENCES CORP (NASDAQ:EXAS), GARMIN LTD (NASDAQ:GRMN), and VERTEX PHARMACEUTICALS INC (NASDAQ:VRTX).

Looking at the recent trade patterns, ARK has been consistently investing in companies like ADAPTIVE BIOTECHNOLOGIES CORP (NASDAQ:ADPT) and PAYPAL HOLDINGS INC (NASDAQ:PYPL) while pulling back from TELADOC HEALTH INC (NYSE:TDOC) and UNITY SOFTWARE INC (NYSE:U), indicating a recalibration in its portfolio strategy.

Investors closely following Cathie Wood's ARK ETFs will likely keep an eye on these trades as they reflect the fund's latest convictions in a rapidly changing market landscape.
