On Tuesday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest continued its trend of selling shares of Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA). This move comes in the wake of the electric vehicle giant’s recent 9% rally and amidst discussions about the company’s potential in autonomous driving technology.

The Tesla Trade: The Tuesday sale was made through Ark Innovation ETF (NYSE:ARKK) and amounted to nearly $20.56 million, based on Tesla’s Tuesday closing price of $266.50. Wood’s Ark sold a total of 77,170 shares through the ETF.

Last week, Ark Invest’s flagship exchange-traded fund, the Innovation ETF offloaded a significant 51,155 Tesla shares. This sale would have garnered the firm a whopping $13.88 billion, considering Tesla’s closing price of $271.30 on that day.

Recently, the stock has recently experienced a rebound, with factors such as Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas‘ upgrade of the stock playing a pivotal role. Cathie Wood has previously mentioned that the fund’s decision to sell Tesla shares isn’t a reflection of the company’s fundamentals but a strategic move to raise capital for other promising investments.

Ark projects a stock price surge for Tesla, reaching $2,000 by 2027, largely driven by the anticipated launch of its robotaxi service.
