Technology
ARK ETFs have had a monster performance in the past few years, and core to their process is this obscure theory of General Purpose Technology.
They use it to identify technologies that have:
- steep cost declines
- cut across sectors
- platforms of innovation
So they arrive at 5 sectors:
- gene sequencing/editing
- AI (collaborative robots)
- energy storage
- biotechnology
- cryptocurrency
