For taking a position against another growth stock hype luminary, there exists an inverse Cathie Wood index you can trade: an ETF with the ticker SARK (“short ARK”). It has done quite well since its inception last year.

>done quite well since its inception last year.

that probably doesnt say much though. what happens if its run since ark's inception?

This is also a problematic metric because of survivorship bias and as part of that, most investors showed up late to the game. Despite the fund having done well, it still could have a negative return over its life when weighted by AUM.
A short fund like this is a trading instrument. I don’t imagine anyone holds it for years.

The fund makes its money on fees, not on price appreciation.
