Interestingly, the 5 main Ark funds are only lightly sprinkled with companies that only trade abroad (not ADRs or native listings)

Ark's $PRNT ETF, on the other hand, is almost 20% European listings that can't be bought in a liquid market from within the US

In total, of the roughly $9bil of Ark's assets, 19% is allocated to non-US companies.

$CRSP is the largest block of that allocation. $CRSP takes up 4.2% of Ark's assets and represents 25% of all funds that are invested in foreign companies

Beginnings of the national makeup of Ark holdings is starting to come together, you can see the new column on the holdings page. I'll tease more of that data out in the coming weeks

If you have something specific you'd like to see, I love suggestions 🙂
