On Wednesday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made notable trades, including the sale of shares in Meta Platforms Inc. META. This move comes as Meta’s AI model, Llama, reached a significant milestone of 1 billion downloads, while the company faces ongoing privacy scrutiny.
The Meta Trade: Ark Invest’s ARK Innovation ETF ARKK sold 7,361 shares of the Mark Zuckerberg-led company. The sale was valued at approximately $4.3 million, based on Meta’s closing price of $584.06. This decision follows a previous sale of over $7 million worth of Meta shares on Monday as the company deals with privacy challenges and global expansion efforts. Notably, Ark also offloaded $1.26 million worth of Meta shares on Wednesday.
Despite these issues, Meta has relatively fared well in 2025, benefiting from lower leverage compared to other tech giants. Recently, Meta’s AI model, Llama, achieved a milestone of 1 billion downloads, as announced by Zuckerberg.
