The most notable action was a massive bet on AI infrastructure firm **CoreWeave (CRWV)** and a strategic entry into **Alphabet (GOOGL)** ahead of its highly anticipated Q1 earnings report today. At the same time, Wood reduced her exposure to **Bullish (BLSH)**, an institutional digital asset exchange and crypto-media firm. ### Claim 55% Off TipRanks Forget margin or options. Here's how the pros trade CRWV ## **Wood Loads Up on Alphabet Ahead of Earnings** The most high-profile move of the day was the purchase of 40,656 shares of Alphabet through the ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), valued at approximately $14.17 million. The stock has been a powerhouse performer, rallying 118% over the past year and 12% year-to-date, driven by its cloud business and the rising demand for its custom TPU chips. Wood is positioned for a major catalyst as the tech giant reports Q1 results today, with traders expecting a larger-than-usual 5.67% swing in the stock price. While investors are bracing for a slight dip in earnings due to the company's massive $175–$185 billion capital expenditure plan for AI data centers, Wood appears confident that these investments will cement Alphabet's lead in the AI race. ## **ARK Doubles Down on NTLA and CoreWeave** Wood also made a significant "buy the dip" play in CoreWeave, picking up 162,306 shares across its ARKK and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW), for a transaction worth over $18.18 million. The purchase followed a 5.83% drop in CoreWeave's stock price, which closed at $105.53 on Tuesday. Wood's buying suggests she views the recent pullback as a good entry point. In addition, ARK continued to bolster its position in **Intellia Therapeutics (NTLA)** by buying 596,171 shares through its ARKK and ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (ARKG), valued at roughly $7.77 million. This buy comes just before Intellia reports Q1 results on Thursday, April 30. For the upcoming report, Wall Street analysts expect revenues of $13.57 million, down from $16.63 million a year ago. Meanwhile, they expect the company to post a loss per share of $0.91, compared to a loss of $1.10 per share in the same quarter last year. ## **Wood Trims Stake in Bullish to Lock in Gains** On the selling side, Wood offloaded 27,526 shares of Bullish through the ARKW ETF. The sale, valued at about $1.07 million, appears to be a tactical move to capitalize on recent gains. The stock rose 2.34% during Tuesday's session, closing at $39.82. By selling into this strength, Wood is locking in profits while reallocating capital toward high-conviction AI and biotech plays like Alphabet and Intellia. ## **How Wall Street Views These Stocks** Using the TipRanks comparison tool, Alphabet leads with a Strong Buy and Smart Score of 9. Intellia offers the highest upside, while CoreWeave has a low Smart Score despite solid upside. Meanwhile, Bullish also shows decent upside with a strong score. ### Related Stocks - [GOOG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOG.US.md) - [GOOGL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOGL.US.md) - [CRWV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CRWV.US.md) - [NTLA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NTLA.US.md) - [GGLL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GGLL.US.md) - [CRWU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CRWU.US.md) - [BLSH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BLSH.US.md) - [ARKK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKK.US.md) - [ARKW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKW.US.md) - [ARKG.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKG.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [If You Want to Invest in AI Without Losing Sleep, Buy Google Stock Now](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288316541.md) - [Alphabet Inc. $GOOGL is Isthmus Partners LLC's 2nd Largest Position](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288689909.md) - [Google’s Phone app will tell you if a scammer is impersonating one of your contacts](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288464543.md) - [Donoghue Forlines LLC Acquires 1,993 Shares of Alphabet Inc. $GOOGL](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288534923.md) - [Stock Of The Day: Will Alphabet Fill The Gap?](https://longbridge.com/en/news/288596722.md)
