$WRD ARK Invest continues to steadily build its position in WeRide. On December 24, ARKQ purchased 101,637 shares (
$901K), following 520,697 shares added on Dec 22 and 356,263 shares on Dec 23. In just three sessions, ARK accumulated nearly 1 million shares of WRD, making it one of the most actively accumulated names across ARK’s ETFs this week.
The timing is notable. WeRide has recently launched fully driverless Robotaxi services with Uber in Abu Dhabi, becoming the first city outside the U.S to host fully driverless Robotaxis on the Uber platform. With regulatory approvals secured and vehicle utilization improving, Uber has indicated that these services are on track toward breakeven unit economics.
As the Robotaxi narrative shifts from experimentation to scale, ARK’s continued accumulation suggests growing confidence that WeRide represents a pure-play, globally deployable autonomy platform with meaningful long-term optionality.
