On the early morning of November 15th, with the deadline for the disclosure of US stock holdings document 13F approaching, the latest holdings of global investment giants such as "Sister Wood" and Soros emerged. From the data, the "Wooden Sister" who is bullish on Tesla is still selling Tesla. At the same time, MSCI, a globally renowned index company, announced the results of its November audit changes.
"Wood Sister" Sells Tesla
Casey Wood, also known as the 'Wooden Sister', once bullish on Tesla. Her ARK investment raised Tesla's target stock price for 2027 to $2000 per share this year, an increase of about 10 times its current value.
However, the latest US stock holdings document 13F by ARK Investment shows that although it is bullish, "Wood Sister" is still selling Tesla. According to market value, Tesla was the stock that ARK Investment reduced its holdings the most in the third quarter, selling 760000 shares and reducing its position by 16%. As of the end of the reporting period, ARK Investment's holdings in Tesla had decreased to 4.08 million shares, with a market value of $1 billion. Although it is still the top heavy holding stock of the "Wood Sister" US stock market, its market value of holdings in Tesla in ARK investment has dropped from 8.39% in the middle of this year to 7.81%.
In an interview with the media this week, "Wood Sister" explained the reason for selling Tesla. She stated that when Tesla's stock price rises relative to other holdings, it will reduce its holdings and allocate them to other companies. This reduction is also partly due to Musk's macroeconomic concerns expressed during the recent Tesla earnings conference call.
She added that as long as ARK's judgment on "autonomous taxis" is correct, Tesla shares will always be among the fund's top five holdings. ARK Investment previously expressed the view that the currently struggling robot taxi industry will generate approximately $10 trillion in revenue by 2030, with Tesla leading the market.
In addition to Tesla, "Wood Sister" made a significant reduction in its heavy holdings of technology stocks in the third quarter: selling off the Bitcoin Exchange Coinbase, streaming platform Roku, e-commerce company Shopify, and sports betting company DraftKings, which are currently in litigation. At the same time, we have purchased many cutting-edge technology companies, including Roblox, known as the first stock of the metaverse, Archer Aviation, a global big data leader Palantir, and Pacific Biosciences, a third-generation sequencing technology development company.
In addition, Soros Fund, a subsidiary of the "financial giant" Soros, bought 3 million shares of Activision Blizzard in the third quarter, making it the third-largest heavyweight American stock. At the same time, it significantly increased its holdings in the Nasdaq 100ETF Invesco (QQ), British life science product manufacturer Abcam PLC, Novo Nordisk, Russell 2000 ETF iShares (IWM), and reduced its holdings in bond indices ETF iShares iBoxx investment grade corporate bonds (LQD) and S&P 500 ETF SPDR (SPY).

There are investment giants targeting opportunities for Chinese concept stocks in the third quarter. According to the US stock holdings report 13F of Baiji Investment, based on market value, the largest increase in Baiji Investment's holdings during the third quarter was targeted at Pinduoduo, buying 4.5 million shares of the company, with a month on month increase of 14.44%.
