The launch of the ARK Space Exploration ETF (ARKX) in late March was one of the most hyped ETF launches in recent memory. Of course there's the Cathie Wood component to the excitement, with the fund manager she runs, ARK, crushing markets and growing AUM eleven-fold in 2020. But there's something about space as a sector that has many investors particularly excited at this moment in time. Cestrian Capital Research's Alex King has been following the space sector very closely for years now, He even enrolled at the Space University, completing his executive education there in 2018. The following year, he launched his Seeking Alpha Marketplace service, The Fundamentals, with a focus on space and cloud computing names. We cover the space sector from top to bottom in this episode of Let's Talk ETFs. Most importantly for investors considering investing in space via ETFs, Alex does a deep-dive head to head comparison of the two pure play space ETFs investors currently have a choice between: The ARK Space Exploration ETF (ARKX) and the Procure Space ETF (UFO).
