When Cathie Wood makes a move, Wall Street tends to pay attention. Her trades have become something of a market signal, especially when they involve the high-growth themes she has consistently backed. And in September, that shopping list included a little bit of everything — space, fintech, crypto and biotechnology — while ARK Investment Management trimmed several large technology and healthcare positions.
In fintech, ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) has been steadily adding to its Robinhood Markets (HOOD) bet. On Sept. 4, the fund bought 28,589 HOOD shares worth roughly $3.5 million, just a day after the stock jumped 16.6%. ARK then returned to the checkout counter on Sept. 8, purchasing another $3.3 million worth of Robinhood’s shares. The buying reflects growing optimism around Robinhood’s prediction markets, banking, and crypto businesses. The additions have also pushed HOOD into ARKK’s top 10 holdings, with a 4.17% portfolio weight.

What It Means for MSFT Stock Investors as Microsoft Switches to 2 Business Segments
Robinhood has evolved far beyond its commission-free trading roots, expanding into stocks, options, crypto, retirement accounts and subscription-based financial services. Its prediction-markets business has also become a serious growth engine. In Q2 2026, event-contract revenue surpassed crypto revenue for the first time, while over 13.6 billion event contracts were traded.
HOOD may have stumbled a bit in 2026, but Robinhood has not exactly hit the brakes. The company keeps expanding across crypto, retirement, and wealth management, while ARKK continues to add to its position. With analysts warming up and the stock recovering, could Wood be betting on a bigger comeback than Wall Street expects?
About Robinhood Stock
Founded in 2013, Robinhood Markets has come a long way from its original mission of making investing more accessible. Headquartered in Menlo Park, Calif., the fintech company helped shake up Wall Street with commission-free trading, bringing stocks and investing closer to everyday retail investors.
Fast-forward to today, and Robinhood is more than just a trading app. Its platform now spans stocks, ETFs, options, futures, and cryptocurrencies, along with retirement accounts, wealth management, digital banking, and credit cards. The company has also stepped into prediction markets and is expanding internationally, including in the U.K.
