Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management on Friday further raised its exposure in Velo3D Inc (NYSE: VLD), a 3D-printing technology firm that counts Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: TSLA) CEO Elon Musk's SpaceX among its key customers. 

The popular money manager bought 10,000 Velo3D shares — estimated to be worth about $70,300 based on their last closing price — on the dip through two of its actively traded exchange funds. 

Ark Space Exploration & Innovation ETF (BATS: ARKX) and the Ark Autonomous Technology & Robotics ETF (BATS: ARKQ) together held 7.39 million — worth $52.69 million— in Velo3D before Friday’s trade.

Velo3D stock closed 1.4% lower at $7.03 a share on Friday. It is down 10.3% year-to-date. 

Wood's Ark has been steadily buying shares in Velo3D since its market debut in October, which happened via a merger with blank-check firm Jaws Spitfire Acquisition Corp.
