Episode notes

Is users the right metric here to be looking at or what should we focus on? So I think you would deem these users as signups. We don't know what the DAU or MAU, so daily active users or monthly active users will be yet and we'll have a good understanding. If you look at what Meta reports DAU to MAU, which is kind of the engagement number, that stands at around 67%. But this is blue all other competition out of the water.

If you know ARK, then you probably know about our long-term research projections, like estimating where we will be 5-10 years from now! But just because we are long-term investors, doesn’t mean we don’t have strong views and opinions on breaking news. In fact, we discuss and debate this every day. So now we’re sharing some of these internal discussions with you in our new video series, “The Brainstorm”, a co-production from ARK and Public.com.

Tune in every week as we react to the latest in innovation. Here and there we’ll be joined by special guests, but ultimately this is our chance to join the conversation and share ARK’s quick takes on what’s going on in tech today.

This week, Associate Portfolio Manager Nick Grous and Director of Research, Autonomous Tech & Robotics Sam Korus discuss Meta’s Threads platform, Tesla Autonomous Marketplace Dynamics and Declining Used Vehicle Prices.
