Cathie Wood said ARK Invest sees strong market appetite for Tesla’s autonomous robotaxis as its Full Self-Driving beta expands into urban fleets. She also raised her long-term revenue outlook for SpaceX crewed missions, citing accelerating reservation trends and high-margin service potential.

1. ARK Invest’s Bullish Robotaxi Outlook

Cathie Wood highlighted that ARK Invest expects Tesla’s autonomous robotaxis to see robust adoption once regulatory approvals align, as evidence by the expansion of the Full Self-Driving beta into multiple U.S. cities. She emphasized high reservation activity among early adopters as a key indicator of long-term demand.

2. Upgraded SpaceX Service Projections

Wood also noted that accelerated reservation trends for SpaceX’s crewed missions support ARK’s decision to raise its multi-year revenue forecast for the space transport unit. She pointed to the unit’s high-margin profile and growing customer interest as pillars of ARK’s overweight stance on SpaceX.
