As per the daily trade disclosures, ARK added a total of 59,705 Tesla shares across its ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW), amounting to a hefty $18.5 million investment.
The buy highlights Wood's continued conviction in Tesla as a core long-term holding, especially amid growing interest in AI-powered autonomous vehicles.
In another notable buy, the ARK Autonomous Technology & Robotics ETF (ARKQ), the firm's ETF focused on autonomous tech and robotics, made a sizable addition of 425,933 shares of Aurora Innovation (AUR), valued at $2.29 million. Aurora is a key player in the self-driving technology space.
Is Tesla Stock a Buy or Sell Now?
Overall, Wall Street is sidelined on Tesla stock, with a Hold consensus rating based on 14 Buys, 13 Holds, and nine Sell recommendations. The average TSLA stock price target of $295.80 indicates 5.65% downside risk from current levels.
ARK Trims Stakes in Archer, Roku, and Coinbase
On the sell side, ARK reduced its position in electric aircraft maker Archer Aviation (ACHR), selling 168,990 shares for roughly $1.82 million from ARKK.
Meanwhile, the firm continued to trim its position in Roku and Coinbase stocks. On Friday, ARK sold 42,332 shares of ROKU worth $3.82 million across ARKK and ARKW ETFs. It also trimmed its Coinbase stake once again, offloading 5,596 shares for $2.17 million through the ARKW ETF. The transaction follows a larger sale of 16,627 shares on July 10, as ARK continued to scale back its position in the cryptocurrency exchange amid recent market volatility.

Turning to Wall Street, Archer stock scores a Moderate Buy consensus rating, with the average ACHR stock price target of $11.75 indicating an 11.80% possible decline from current levels. Coinbase also carries a Moderate Buy rating, with analysts' average COIN stock price target of $307.71 implying a possible 20.50% decline.

Apple faces steep tariffs
{beacon} Technology Technology The Big Story Apple anticipates $1.1B price tag from tariffs next quarter Apple expects to face $1.1 billion in tariff-related costs next quarter on top of $800 million from the prior three months. © Alberto Pezzali, Associated Press The iPhone-maker, which has been hit particularly hard by President Trump's tariff push, still reported strong quarterly earnings, posting $94 billion in revenue and $23.4 billion in net income for the stretch between April and June. Apple sold $44.5 billion worth of iPhones last quarter, up 13 percent from the same three-month period last year, at least part of which the company attributed to consumers trying to get ahead of tariffs. 'We would estimate the pull-forward of demand into April specifically to be about one point of the 10 points in terms of people buying because of discussions about tariffs,' Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday, referencing the 10 percent uptick in sales last quarter. The company has found itself in a tricky position on tariffs in Trump's second term. It has long manufactured most of its products in China but has increasingly sought to diversify its supply chain by moving some production to India and Vietnam. This has been less than beneficial given the president's wide-ranging approach to tariffs this time around. Trump initially hit all three countries with hefty 'reciprocal' tariffs before putting most on pause. Tariffs on Chinese goods remained in place, as Washington and Beijing went tit for tat on import taxes, raising levies on one another to 145 percent and 125 percent, respectively. The two sides eventually struck an agreement to lower their tariffs to 30 percent and 10 percent, a truce they agreed to extend Tuesday for an additional 90 days. In the meantime, Apple has shifted more production to India, prompting the country to overtake China as the leading exporter of smartphones to the U.S. last quarter.

Atkins announced his plans for Project Crypto on Thursday, directing agency staff to develop proposals for implementing recommendations from the Trump administration's recent crypto report. The 166-page report from the president's digital assets working group offered detailed guidance to Congress and federal regulators on everything from crypto oversight to taxation to banking rules. It notably urged both the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to 'use their existing authorities to immediately enable the trading of digital assets at the federal level.' Atkins said Thursday he is directing SEC staff to draft rules on crypto asset distributions, custody and trading, in addition to considering authorities to "make sure that archaic rules and regulations do not smother innovation and entrepreneurship in America." For instance, the SEC chair said he has tasked his staff with developing guidelines to determine when a crypto asset is a security or subject to an investment contract (which also falls under the agency's purview). He also called for fit-for-purpose disclosures, exemptions and safe harbors for crypto transactions that are covered by securities laws.

Tesla to pay $243M for deadly 2019 Florida Keys accident
Aug. 1 (UPI) -- Tesla must pay $243 million for a 2019 accident that killed a pedestrian and badly injured another in the Florida Keys, a federal jury decided on Friday. The accident occurred at a T-intersection after sundown in the Florida Keys in 2019 when the Tesla did not stop and rammed a parked SUV. The collision killed Naibel Benavides Leon, 20, as she stood next to the SUV. Her boyfriend, Dillon Angulo, was injured. The Miami jury granted a $43 million award for compensatory damages for pain and suffering and another $200 million for punitive damages arising from the vehicular accident that occurred in the Florida Keys, NBC News reported. Attorneys for the plaintiffs successfully argued Tesla officials overestimated the capabilities of the autopilot program in the Tesla Model S sedan that the defendant was driving. The jury determined the plaintiff's pain and suffering merited a total of $129 million in compensatory damages, but Tesla only pays a third of that amount. The jury assigned one-third of the blame to Tesla and two-thirds to the driver, who said he was distracted while reaching for his cell phone when the accident occurred. The motorist was sued separately from Tesla and was not a party to the federal lawsuit that the jury decided on Friday. U.S. District Court of Southern Florida Judge Beth Bloom accepted the jury's verdict and said she will order Tesla to pay the judgment. The jury of eight found Tesla was partly liable because the vehicle's autopilot system did not brake in time to prevent the deadly accident. Officials for Elon Musk-owned and publicly traded electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla said they will appeal the jury's verdict. "Today's verdict is wrong and only works to set back automotive safety and jeopardize Tesla's and the entire industry's efforts to develop and implement life-saving technology," they said in a prepared statement. "We plan to appeal given the substantial errors of law and irregularities at trial."
