ARK Wealth transforms market volatility into strategic gains with its innovative Anti-Fragile Framework
Advertisement
In an era defined as much by geopolitical upheaval as by technological disruption, global markets are recalibrating at an unprecedented pace. The return of Donald Trump to the White House has accelerated a more aggressive iteration of America First policies, reshaping trade, regulation, and investment strategy with little warning. Tariffs are being deployed unpredictably, supply chains are once again in flux, and companies reliant on cross-border stability are forced into constant adaptation.
Meanwhile, artificial intelligence is redrawing competitive lines in real time. Recent advances in reasoning models have proven that no stock is truly blue-chip. At the same time, a policy shift on digital assets has fast-tracked Bitcoin's transition to a legitimate portfolio asset. But while the U.S. embraces deregulation, Europe is tightening controls, meaning investors managing cross-border portfolios face a constantly shifting reality.
This unpredictability is fueling turbulence that goes beyond traditional risk. In its latest CIO Report, ARK Wealth, a premier wealth management firm serving global Chinese high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), highlights how the execution of these broad policy shifts is leading to a transformation in investor philosophy. In short, volatility demands a new approach, one that prioritizes stability, resilience, and long-term planning over short-term speculation.
From Traditional Investment To Wealth Preservation

ARK Wealth is at the forefront of this evolution. Launched in 2024 as the overseas wealth management arm of Noah Holdings, the wealth manager's approach departs from the traditional, sole pursuit of high returns in favor of a structured, multi-layered strategy designed to build resilience across generations. The core of this philosophy is what the firm calls its anti-fragile portfolio framework, a disciplined approach that balances wealth preservation, financial stability, and selective exposure to high-growth opportunities.

Australia probes Nauru-China business deal
Australia was Tuesday investigating whether Pacific microstate Nauru breached a security treaty by inking a lucrative business deal with a Chinese company. Nauru last week announced it had signed a US$650 million economic development agreement with the China Rural Revitilisation and Development Corporation. Australian Minister for Pacific Island Affairs Pat Conroy said officials were looking into whether that deal complied with a recent security pact between Canberra and Nauru. '(Australia) is engaging with the government of Nauru about whether it activates parts of our treaty,' Conroy told reporters. 'That is a really important treaty for us — that helps position us as a security partner of choice with Nauru.' Australia and Nauru announced a landmark security treaty in December last year, advancing Canberra's aim of blunting China's growing regional influence. Under the deal, Nauru must seek Australia's agreement before it signs any bilateral accords on maritime security, defence and policing. Nauru also agreed to consult Australia if other parties look to strike agreements granting them access to critical infrastructure such as ports and airfields or its banking sector. In return, Nauru receives tens of millions of dollars to prop up its government budget and bolster its stretched police force. Nauru last year surprised many Pacific watchers when it abruptly severed diplomatic links with Taiwan in favour of Beijing. Nauru's Foreign Affairs Minister Lionel Aingimea travelled to Beijing to sign the business deal last week. The China Rural Revitilisation and Development Corporation agreed to invest in key sectors such as agriculture and fisheries, according to a Nauru government release. Nauru, population 12,500, is one of the world's smallest countries with a mainland measuring just 20 square kilometres (7.7 square miles). It is considered especially vulnerable to climate change.

Nvidia plans more powerful chip for China after Trump approves H20 export, sources say
Nvidia is developing a new artificial intelligence chip for China based on its latest Blackwell architecture that will be more powerful than the H20 model it is currently allowed to sell there, according to two people briefed on the matter. US President Donald Trump last week opened the door to the possibility of more advanced Nvidia chips being sold in China, but the sources noted US regulatory approval was far from guaranteed amid deep-seated fears in Washington about giving China too much access to US AI technology. The new chip, tentatively known as the B30A, would use a single-die design that was likely to deliver half the raw computing power of the more sophisticated dual-die configuration in Nvidia's flagship B300 accelerator card, the sources said. A single-die design is when all the main parts of an integrated circuit are made on one continuous piece of silicon rather than split across multiple dies. The new chip would have high-bandwidth memory and Nvidia's NVLink technology for fast data transmission between processors, features that are also in the H20 – a chip based on the company's older Hopper architecture. US President Donald Trump and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang speak at the White House during an event in April. /TNS The chip's specifications were not completely finalised, but Nvidia hoped to deliver samples to Chinese clients for testing as early as next month, said the sources, who were not authorised to speak to the media and declined to be identified.

Hong Kong rental yield hits 13-year high amid mainland Chinese student demand
Rental yields in Hong Kong in June rose to their highest level in more than 13 years, fuelled by strong leasing demand from mainland Chinese students, even as falling mortgage costs made property ownership more affordable compared with renting, according to Centaline Property. The Centaline Rental Index Yields, which tracks residential rental yield, rose for a second consecutive month to 3.56 per cent in June, the highest since November 2011, according to data released on Monday by one of the city's largest property agencies. Yields rose 3.54 per cent in May. The higher rental yields created the biggest gap between yields and mortgage rates in nearly 14 years at 1.58 percentage points, Centaline said, making it cheaper to buy than rent in almost all parts of the city. The average mortgage rate on loans linked to the Hong Kong interbank offered rate (Hibor) was 1.98 per cent, according to the property agency. About 98 per cent of the 143 housing estates tracked by Centaline showed higher rental yields than mortgage costs in June, compared with 93 per cent a month earlier. Thirty estates delivered yields of 4 per cent or higher, one more than in May, the data showed. Homes for leasing and sale are displayed at property agency in North Point. Photo: Eugene Lee 'Hong Kong's rental yields have entered a rare high-growth phase amid the influx of student tenants this summer,' said Yeung Ming-yee, a senior associate director at Centaline. 'While yields are likely to stay elevated above 3.56 per cent, the pace of growth could moderate as home prices edge higher.'
