The ARK Space fund is probably the best known Space ETF covering the space sector. Not surprisingly previous performance has seen ARK nose-dive like a space SPAC, as it was thrown around by a market decline in 2022 leading into 2023.
The ARK Space fund was formed in 2021 and today has about a quarter of a billion assets under management; these assets are chiefly aerospace and the current top space stocks.
These stocks however are not really completely pure play space stocks, a lot of them seem more like technology plays or cybersecurity but thrown in under the term innovation. Wow. Innovation.
As with any space fund the chief factor is management, and in this case they charge 0.75% fee.
ARK Space fund gives you a somewhat limited yet safe investment in the space sector however do not expect too many surprises to the upside unless it's part of a monetary policy financial bubble where the price of all funds can go up and down.
Currently they do not offer a dividend, so you’re just paying the management company, who in turn supports the stock price of he companies they invest in. Go figure.
