Should you Buy ArkX? **March 30 Release** [Cathie Wood's New ETF]
FULL TRANSCRIPT
hey everyone me kevin here kathy wood
releases a brand new exchange traded
fund
tomorrow or since you might be watching
this tomorrow
on march 30 of 2021 and that is
ark x the space and innovation exchange
traded fund where the heck can you buy
it well
you could generally buy it anywhere you
could buy stock see etfs are publicly
traded
as if they're one stock but they're
really just a collection of stocks
it's kind of like a basket of stocks
kind of like an index fund
except it's an actively traded fund
which just means that rather than
tracking the same stocks pretty much all
the time kathy wood gets to decide
what stocks go in the basket and so
this fund promises to put 80 percent
of their holdings and money into things
related to space exploration
and innovation so basically anything
they want
now uh what we're going to do is we're
going to go through
the some of the top holdings in this
fund and then you'll get a better
understanding of
what the heck this fund is all about
i'll also go through
some of the earnings and i'll go through
this in a concise way just so you get an
idea of if you're interested
in investing in the arc x fund
i want you to in my opinion be aware of
what you're getting into
because it might not be exactly what
you're expecting but it could be good if
you're
expecting the right thing so let's let's
show you exactly
what you should be expecting okay so uh
the first thing that i'm going to do is
i just want to point out look you've
probably seen
this before at this point if you're
interested in arc invest i'm not going
to hang out on
this the entire time in fact i've got an
entire kind of a
flow chart that we're going to go
through here breaking down some of the
top companies in here for example
will break down what the heck is this
trimble what is this trimble that 8.47
of my money is going into what is this
3d printing etf oh they make 3d printing
printed stuff okay cool but who even
makes that etf
uh hint hint kathy so kathy's
putting your etf money that goes into
argex into another one of her etfs
kind of brilliant marketing honest i
have to say but
anyway then you've got you know defense
contractors in here
but you've also got things like nvidia
and john deere and amazon and google
and garmin the gps manufacturer and
if you keep scrolling enough you'll even
see things over here like
netflix and you'll even see 10 cent over
here
as well as workhorse which just lost
their
usps contract to oshkosh so you've
kind of got a little bit of a a
hodgepodge when you first
look at this it's like wait a minute how
do these all connect together like
i want spaceships and like intergalactic
warfare products notice that's different
from intergalactic warfare i don't
really want that
but products related to that that make
money hey sounds good to me okay so
easiest thing to do here is just start
at the top and let's grind through this
in order to grind through this i have to
say you're going to want to make sure
you sign up for two free stocks with
weibo go to mackevin.com
weevil get two totally free stocks you
deposit a hundred bucks the same
platform i use every day
when i do my market open and market
close live streams okay
let's get into this okay so trimble you
know the company google
sketchup or that app google sketchup a
lot of you may have heard of that before
you kind of use it to usually like
design like your backyard or your house
or whatever you want
well trimble bought google sketchup and
that kind of gives you an idea of
trimble a little bit they work a lot in
building and construction in fact
40 of their money comes or their revenue
comes from civil engineering
commercial and industrial building 25
percent comes from trucking
and 20 comes from geospatial things
which is kind of like surveying
they make their own gps products they
make their own lasers for surveying
uh all their own optics and wireless
communication devices
so you can see kind of like the bulk of
their
existing book of business is kind of
just like
regular construction related things but
a small part of their business does have
to do with
gps and tracking vehicles and logistics
and one of the themes that i want you to
kind of like put into your memory bank
as we go through this
is existing businesses that are
lower on the risk scale that are more
established
but have like these small little embers
or
flames inside of them that could explode
into really profitable space
related industries in the future maybe
10 to 20 years in the future
so keep keep that sort of in the back
your mind and then see if you kind of
agree with that okay
so that this is trimble right now over
the last five years they've been
increasing their revenue except for in
2020 when they had a 3.6
decline kind of growing at like a seven
to eight percent clip so
not like really crazy much but they've
only got one percent short interest like
nobody's shorting this company nobody
actually expects this mature company to
go anywhere
it's a really mature anchor right low
bankruptcy risk
uh lots lots of cash but then i got to
my thing i think to myself like wait
what do they have to do with space and i
thought
you know the best thing i can really
think of here is is really lasers and
and surveying equipment and that gps
tracking
uh for logistics maybe in the future so
so we'll see
okay uh then we've got uh the next thing
is
the next biggest holding so this right
here was an 8.47
holding the next biggest holding was a
6.1
and this was the 3d printing etf which
is actually another arc invest fund
which do keep in mind most of kathy's
funds have an expense ratio which you
could read all about on their website of
about
uh a quarter or sorry three quarters of
one percent so that means for every
100 you're investing uh into
uh one of kathy woods funds you're
giving about
75 cents to kathy wood so for every
hundred dollars
75 cents to go into kathy okay so uh
this is another arc fund here so the
space exploration one and innovation
fund is
is 0.75 i'm not sure exactly what the 3d
printed one is but although i'm pretty
sure it's similar
the biggest holding in the 3d printed
fund is xone
which it makes up about 8.3 of the 3d
printed fund
what i did though is i kind of just
indicated them
as a relation to the size in the space
innovation fund
so really of the money you're putting
into the space innovation fund
you're only getting about half percent
exposure to zone
and then the other ones in the printing
edf etf you're getting like a third
percent exposure
so in other words if you put like a
hundred dollars into the space
etf you're getting uh 50
cents going to zone and they do 3d
printed machines for industrial
customers
they're projected to grow their revenue
actually by a good amount but they are
losing money
they make 3d printed in-house machines
kind of reminds me a little bit of like
a nano dimension
they got hewlett packard over here third
of one percent so really for every
hundred dollars you're putting into
kathy's fund you're really only seeing
33 cents go into
hp 33 cents going into approximately i'm
really rounding here
into straumann straumann does like 3d
printed dental
implants and things like that like i got
a little lost in terms of why
the 3d printed section is so high but it
is
we've got uh renee shaw this is uh i
believe this was a
uh this is oh yeah here we go so this is
a precision
measuring and calibration company so
they
try to make sure that your machinery
operates as
perfectly as it can so the way i picture
that is like if you have a machine
that's etching
uh like maybe a 3d printer that's
etching a 3d printed circuit board
you want to make sure that your 3d
printer is properly calibrated and this
company can help you manufacture
or basically have those tools so they
manufacture those tools to make sure
that your products are accurate
microsoft and then you've got another
little bit of trimbles in here so
the second line in the arc etf a little
bit threw me off because it's the 3d
printing etf right
and then you kind of have like this
miscellaneous hodgepodge of 3d printing
companies
but then we get to the interesting ones
so then we get to kratos defense
so they do a lot of it for the
government in fact
eighty percent of their sales come from
the government they also deal with
microwave electronic products
space training cyber security rocket
support services defense services
uh defense communications and more so if
you
put a hundred dollars into this arc
innovation and space etf you're putting
just to make this as simple as possible
you're putting about eight dollars and
47 cents into trimble that's that
commercial civil engineering one that
also does a little bit of the gps lasers
and stuff like that
6.1 are going into like these
miscellaneous kind of 3d printers
then you've got a five dollars and 62
cents
for every hundred dollars going into
this one now one of the things that's
cool here and i think this is probably
where the the long hope is
is they do a lot of work on uav products
in fact a lot of these companies if you
go to their website
the first thing like if you type into
google kratos defense are like these
these spacey starcraft-ish looking
airplane
that are like uh un unmanned planes
and it kind of makes me think of like
starcraft warfare
a little bit uh and and i think that's
kind of
like what they're trying to show off
like oh yeah we might be like
an old school defense company but don't
worry we can innovate as well and we can
get you
drones that can fight in the sky uh
the department of defense is basically
their biggest play payer
40 of their revenue comes from products
i'm sorry 60 comes from products
40 from services uh they also have a
satellite related products and services
like they do chips that go into
missile guidance systems i mean some of
this stuff is pretty intense
in fact i kind of thought about this
company as like this is my intergalactic
warfare company like yeah my missiles my
targeting systems
uh my my uavs i could go fly around and
be like my swarm that i release when i
push a button and go fight people in the
sky
i know that sounds a little childish but
like that's literally how i'm
simplifying like a potential future for
this company i hope we don't need it but
yeah
a forward pe of roughly 52 one of the
more expensive stocks out of this whole
fund
so out of your hundred dollars your next
four dollars and 97 cents uh would be
going into
the sixth largest defense contractor and
this company
l3 harris they do a lot of tac-com stuff
so tactical communications
radio communications for land sea air
space
and and cyber they said that 30
of their revenue comes from intelligence
and recon like advanced
sensors surveillance systems targeting
systems infrared targeting
space and airborne born segments are 25
and that's kind of cool that they broke
that out that way i think a lot of
people want to hear that okay yeah
how much is space related right uh and
that's 25 percent of l3 harris
space related complete earth observation
is the way they put that so
positioning antennas i imagine
satellites
these defense companies are really a
little bit vague sometimes
and maybe it's because they just do so
many different things but they also
provide the
next-gen warfare systems for f-16s like
this really makes me feel like very tony
stark-ish
uh you know i got to get my missiles and
kind of deliver those missiles
i i don't know it's a little bit what
these all feel like right
they're also discussing plans for like
autonomous autonomous
ships with like solar panels and they
can like basically drive themselves
these autonomous ships without a crew
i don't know there's some interesting
things their revenue grew like 100
in 2019 probably because they got a big
fat contract
and it's expected to grow only three to
five percent over the next two years
so that's usually what happens with
these big contracts like their revenue
goes through the roof and then and then
they kind of fulfill their contract
right
selling for about 18 times 2022 earnings
jd.com so i have to say this one threw
me off a little bit this reminds me of
like a blend between like an etsy and on
amazon.com
in china so they sell like appliances
computers maybe it's more like a walmart
i don't know
digital products clothing so people in
china
uh the the eps is estimated to be uh
2.75 dollars in 2022 so
you're paying like about 30 times future
earnings here
uh you know a lot of these companies
actually surprisingly low p e ratios
and it's in my opinion it's because
you're really getting like these mature
companies with the potential
to grow into space i don't know about
jd.com
honestly why 4.91 is going into the
space fund i have
no clue but then again remember this is
the space and innovation fund
and when you make an etf you do want to
have some balance too right like yeah
yeah these are going to be our space
winners but in the meantime we got to
have some winners up front too
and that's kind of why i think you'll
also see like the amazon the google and
the netflix it's like
maybe those could be our winners between
2020
uh one and like 2025 and then maybe our
space stuff will start
emerging and hatching so to speak okay
then we've got uh kamatsu this would be
your next four dollars and 56 cents
and this is a japanese this is kind of
in my opinion like a japanese john deere
or maybe like a plug power slash john
deere because they make
forklifts excavators bulldozers or maybe
even like a caterpillar
so kind of blend like caterpillar plug
and john deere
construction and mining equipment or
maybe more caterpillar probably more
caterpillar
but anyway uh their revenue declined
about 15 in 2020
and they're expected to decline through
the first part of 2021 so probably very
covet related
uh well yeah i wrote due to covet and
they are expecting about 10 growth in
2022. you're paying about 20 times 2022
earnings for this one
you know i guess you need excavators if
you go land on the moon or mars too
so you know maybe anywho then we've got
lockheed martin
one of the biggest global military
contractors a 4.47
of your 100 would go into lockheed
martin
the u.s government provides 71 percent
of revenue for this company
they make aircrafts uavs helicopters
satellite spaceships
ships uh spacecraft i guess they said
okay so because maybe like vessels that
bring satellites to the sky
or to space ships subs missiles
missile defenses f-35s f-35 fighter jets
by the way make up
25 of this company's sales uh forty
percent are all aeronautics related
with the c uh c130 also being produced
by lockheed martin
i've been in a c-130 those things are
awesome uh it's like a transport plane
i'm not sure i think you can you could
probably have a c130 bomber as well i'm
not i'm
actually not we should look that up
really quick oh could you have a c130
bomber
c130 bomber let's see
uh c130 yeah you can nailed it
check it out folks freaking nailed it
c130 is either a
cargo medivac troop transport but also
possibly a bomber
okay uh very very cool at least that's
what comes up when you type in c-130
bomber
oh look at that lockheed ac-130 gunship
heavily armed hercules oh freaking
awesome
but anyway so uh yeah okay so
uh of uh uh of your one hundred dollars
four dollars and forty seven cents we're
going into lockheed martin and of that
uh four dollars and forty seven cents
times point four
about a dollar seventy eight of every
100
you're investing goes into basically the
revenue of
like those c-130 bombers and transport
planes
uh anyway that's very cool 25 percent of
their revenue though is space related so
this is again where you can see a little
bit of that hatchling of space
remember the theme hatchling a space
with some other stuff like that that
chinese retailer and netflix and
google and and stuff like that uh and
john deere which john deere's in here as
well but anyway
uh 73 billion dollars of projected 2023
revenue which is 3.7
growth uh net income is actually 11
projected margin down a little bit but
actually pretty good margin honestly for
lockheed martin
very low future forward price to
earnings ratio 12.61
which is pretty dang low uh mostly
because limited growth i mean this is
a lot of large numbers here these guys
do like 70 plus
billion or will that's the projectionist
to do over 70 billion dollars
of of sales which is just like a huge
huge number
uh of sales like let's let's look at
apple's revenue here really quick let's
just type this in
apple revenue apple revenue
is 111 billion dollars and like we said
lockheed
martin just to compare revenue right now
is 59.8 billion dollars projected to go
up to
70 billion dollars in the future so
those are some big numbers
law of large numbers for sure then we've
got iridium communication so they do
mobile
satellite services low earth satellites
voice and data services
basically the best analogy i found was
if you want to make a phone call from
the north pole
because you're like a stranded soldier
you probably use iridium related
products or if you want to send a
missile to that stranded person
you probably would use iridium
communication
services main customer is the us
government
boeing operates and maintains iridium
satellite system 80
of revenue comes from mobile voice and
data services so i guess only eight
i guess 80 is more voice and data
services
maybe 20 is missiles yeah missiles uh
anyway not quite profitable yet growing
about four to seven percent per year
remember the growth rates are really
skewed at these companies though because
all it takes is a big fat contract
uh from from the government fails s a
so this was probably uh one of my more
challenging ones to really understand
what's going on here they do a lot
of uh oh so first of all three dollars
and ninety cents of your hundred dollars
would go into this one
they do a lot of like air traffic
control related products so i'm
imagining like
radar and calm products when you're
looking at like the front of an airplane
or air traffic control
but their website really pitches like
everything
like they have products on algorithms
for ai
crowd management autonomous trains
driverless trains i guess it's the same
thing a lot lots of things and they want
to grow into space communications like
they're
basically already trying to work with
like nasa to incorporate some of their
com
parts or hardware and software products
20
of their money goes into r d so you know
they've they're trying to really find
find their place it seems like it seems
like they really have their place and
aeronautics communications maybe that
reputation will carry over to
space-related communications which is
why they're kind of starting to work
with nasa it seems like
you've got boeings in here so out of
every hundred dollars you put in 3.48
goes into boeing
boeing makes apache helicopters missiles
munitions spacecraft
transporters i mean they make a ton of
crap like only
30 percent of their sails are things
like the boeing 747 or the
the air max or whatever uh you know the
plane that had the issues
the 737 max not the air max i'm thinking
of like the
the apple products the headphones sorry
anywho
defense space military security actually
makes up 45
of the revenue so when you hear boeing
almost half
comes from the defense department uh
actually probably more because if you
include 25
aerospace defense and then 25
for just defense and security and
missiles and munitions
i mean actually when you add it up like
that that's like 70 percent that's
coming from
the government here basically and the 30
are those commercial plane sales
you're paying about 43 times 20 22
revenues uh obviously had a rough
2020 but that's expected to come back in
2021 and then we'll go back to normal
growth
of a just a little under 10 per year is
the expectation
nvidia's in here which is another one of
those kind of hatchling companies where
you're like come on like
their graphic processing units make up
85 percent of the company's revenue
gaming is 50 of the whole total
but they do have this ai and vehicle
autonomous
segment which right now only makes up
like 10 of revenue but hey that could
explode
right now you're paying about 35 times
future 2023 earnings for this company
spirit aerosystems this is a holding
company and
they make fuselages and wings and motors
and engines for planes
like for example boeing apparently
doesn't actually make their own
fuselages
spirit aerosystems make some for boeing
i thought that was cool john deere think
farm and turf equipment harvesters 65
of their stuff is for agriculture turf
25 forestry and construction
uh they also have a little portion that
goes to like military-style tractors and
stuff like that
yeah i don't know why 3.1 dollars of my
money are going into john deere
and the space and innovation fund but
remember they said only 80 of the fund
has to go to
space and innovation so i i don't know i
i don't i don't think this falls in that
eighty percent
amazon i mean sure you could say this
falls in the innovation stuff we don't
have to really introduce amazon here
teradyne manufactures machines
that automate testing in manufacturing
so they what the the connection that i
found here really is
robotic arms that they actually do
industrial automation and robotic arms
but that segment is only 15 of their
revenue right now
the 70 of their their revenue comes from
the
sales of semiconductor testing equipment
then that tiny little part
that little ember is robotic arms
remember this
like it i'm telling you folks the theme
of this this uh index fund or not index
fund i'm sorry
the theme of this etf exchange traded
fund which yes you could get on robin
hood weeble and all that remember get
your two free stocks with libo
and sign up for block fi and get up to
250 totally for free and earn interest
on your cryptocurrency which if you do
want to earn more interest
or at least like diversify to another
company check out voyager by going to
mckevin.com
voyager they'll give you money for
signing up over there as well just like
block five i recommend signing up for
both
anywho so paradigm uh yeah
very very thematic right old guard
companies fledgling
operations says the smaller part of
their company so
serve really good industrial purposes
but also have these small parts within
the company that's like oh yeah this is
our high-tech division
like this is this is the the blooming
you know this this part of our company
is going to be explosive
i you know honestly i wish i could just
do like a factory tour of all these
companies
maybe then it'd be like oh my gosh look
what they're making
you know anyway then you've got google
uh so 2.59 of every
one of your hundred dollars goes into
here this one was huge
the salt the soul it's probably like the
soul
i don't know something like that uh that
it's a french company and i kind of said
that like as japanese
i i don't know i don't know i'm not good
with accents okay
i'm making financial related content
here okay anywho
uh software to help innovation computer
aided design
software makes up like 80 plus percent i
think it's like 85 percent of what this
company does
and they've got a lot of software for
supply chain issues but honestly when
you go to their website
they just say they do everything like
hey you need help for mobility
households aerospace transportation
industrial equipment
we got solutions for you and i got a
little overwhelmed
so i kind of paused on that one we do
have garmin gps in here we got virgin
galactic in here each at about two bucks
uh and so this this you know then we
kind of go into the smaller holdings
uh some of the smaller ones again i mean
we got like workhorse in here now we're
getting into the really smaller ones
like
alibaba's in here airbus is in here
uh honeywell for for maybe um
you know filtration for space related
technologies
uh hvac right heating and air
conditioning
10 cent holdings is in here uh anywho uh
so you've got you've got a lot of uh
additional companies in here the big
thing to take away here
is is simply this and this is sort of my
takeaway so
make your own thoughts thoughts
obviously here but this is my takeaway
my takeaway is
this is a very long tail etf with
some current hot stocks included to
maybe try to bump the returns in the
short term
like let's throw in netflix and amazon
and google to help bump the short-term
returns
because it's probably going to be a
while for those little emerging
embers to to grow and explode into like
ah
space is very very profitable this if
this is not exactly like a pure space
play right
spacex for example would be a very pure
space play
this etf to meme feels a little bit like
10 space that could
in 15 20 years
end up being like 80 space because all
the companies have evolved
into space related products and like
those products have ended up blossoming
so you're really planting those seeds
here very very very early
uh but again it's this is not a pure
play like a spacex but you can't buy
spacex right
uh so or like virgin would potentially
be a little bit more of a pure play but
then again you have a lot of risk
because it's very early so
uh very dependent on government
contracts otherwise like in the near
term you're very dependent on government
contracts
trimble honestly a really good
infrastructure play i think it's
probably a better infrastructure play
than it is
a uh like a space play
which is not gonna be bad i mean biden
administration wants to spend four
trillion dollars on infrastructure so
why not
lots of government defense contracts
here some randos kind of like that
jd.com
a little random but hey they're growing
great i mean 20
plus per year so a very low pe stocks
and some of those developed companies
but again they've got those little
embers of growth
some kind of weird inclusions again i
think they're trying to just
make sure they have a fund that actually
just that this is like that does grow
it does have growth over the next few
years but i do think there is a future
where this could have more explosive
growth
i just don't know if i personally want
to ride with this for all those years
and uh i i don't know maybe like when
spacex comes out i just go all in over
there
in the meantime it's just like uh throw
it all in on tesla i i don't know
i personally i'm not an etf uh investor
i'm a big fan of picking my own but i
have to say i mean like out of the
stocks
here are there some that i would pick
that that i hadn't thought of before
yeah actually probably yeah here take a
look at this uh i'll
highlight these in red honestly trimble
kind of not bad i
i liked what i read about trimble kind
of like that one
uh you know quite frankly like if i was
going to get into some of these like the
lockheed martin or the kratos and the l3
like if i was gonna get into these
defense contractors
i mean they're they're inexpensive uh
and they've got uh they've got that
little potential
uh to really explode you know i mean
even even pterodyne was interesting
uh spirit aerosystem is the fuselage
company
i don't know much about i don't know
much about whose fuselage is better i
honestly i don't want to compare
fuselages okay like oh what their
fuselage is longer theirs is thicker i
mean like i
anyway uh you know i mean i like nvidia
right obviously i like amazon
uh you know i mean i like lots of these
kind of i don't know about workhorse i
kind of feel like workhorse needs a
little bit of a pump
uh i'm not saying that's why it's in
this but
you know anywho i'll just end it there
how about that
