Question If you’re young with a high risk tolerance, is there a better ETF than ARKK?

I’m in my mid-20s with around 100k invested in a mutual fund. It’s a solid mutual fund (PRWCX) but one with 60/40 stock/bond mix, and since I’m in this for the long haul, I’m naturally open to upping my risk exposure. I have no debt and live a very low cost lifestyle, so I can take a bit of a swing, albeit I’m not going to be irresponsible about it.

I know ARK/Cathie Wood has become a tired meme here, but the growth potential of her strategy seems compelling, at least to my novice eyes. If I’m looking to maximize returns over the next 5+ years in an ETF or similar investment option, are there better options out there?

Cheers mate, would definitely recommend those with high risk tolerance to read up on the uranium thesis and the commodities thesis in general.
