Overview

The ARK Genomic Revolution ETF is a healthcare-focused fund issued by ARK ETF Trust with $2.22 billion in assets. It holds a C grade, ranking 9th out of 11 peers in its category and 209th of 458 tracked ETFs overall. The 0.75% expense ratio exceeds the category median of 0.36%, while the fund provides no dividend yield compared to the median 0.98%. Concentration is notable, with the top 10 holdings comprising 59.1% of assets and the largest position, 10X GENOMICS INC, accounting for 9.4%.

Price action shows the fund trading at $48.16, which sits at 68.8% of its 52-week range. Short-term momentum has been mixed, with a 1-day gain of 0.61% contrasting against a 1-month decline of 10.03%. However, longer horizons display strong acceleration, including a 1-year return of 57.54% and a 3-year total of 114.71%. These figures significantly outpace the category median 1-year return of 24.88%. The C grade has remained unchanged over the last 35 tracked days, based on 3.0 years of available price history.

The fund exhibits Very High volatility at 44.66% annualized, paired with a beta of 2.21 indicating substantial movement relative to the market. This leverage to market swings is reflected in a maximum drawdown of -46.45%. Despite the elevated risk, the Sharpe ratio of 1.18 suggests the returns generated have compensated for that volatility. Trading liquidity is supported by an average daily volume of 4,316,485 shares.

CBOE Volatility Index (VIX): 19.03 (as of 2026-10-22) — A real-time gauge of expected S&P 500 volatility over the next 30 days — useful context for this fund’s own volatility label.

ARKG Liquidity, Domicile & Tax Treatment

Liquidity: Average daily volume is 4.3M/day. Higher volume and a larger fund generally mean lower round-trip trading costs. AUM of $2.22B provides ample scale, supporting tight spreads and issuer commitment to keep the fund open.

Domicile & tax treatment: ARKG is a US-domiciled, SEC-registered ('40 Act) exchange-traded fund. Dividends and capital gains distributions are reported to US investors on Form 1099-DIV, and the fund is not subject to the PFIC reporting or UCITS-specific rules that apply to Irish- or Luxembourg-domiciled funds. Non-US investors should note that US-domiciled ETFs are generally subject to 30% US withholding tax on dividends (unless reduced by treaty) and to US estate tax exposure on the position — Irish-domiciled UCITS ETFs tracking the same index often avoid both, which is why non-US residents frequently prefer the UCITS equivalent where one exists. This is general information, not tax advice — consult a tax professional for your situation.
