TuSimple’s unexpected management shuffle last week saw co-founder and CTO Xiaodi Hou taking over the CEO and chairman roles from Cheng Lu.
Although the company said it was part of a "planned executive succession," the move spooked investors, sending its shares down 21% on Thursday and 13% lower a day later.
Wood had said she had “confidence in Xiaodi’s ability to execute on TuSimple’s autonomous strategy.”
TuSimple is developing commercial-ready, Level 4, fully autonomous trucks for customers. Ark Invest has also placed bets in electric vehicle companies Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) and Xpeng Inc (NYSE: XPEV).
Here are a few other key Ark Invest trades from Tuesday:
