The Nasdaq and S&P 500 closed down nearly 1% on Friday with the Dow posting a 0.5% loss on the day. Although the markets had a negative session, ARK Funds were posting some sizable gains. ARKG performed the best out of the group, up 3.0% on the day, while ARKX underperformed the rest of the group, down 0.1%.
