A competitive scorekeeping ecosystem based on investor stock trade history and index analytics
It was inspiring to see the staff of a city newspaper who three decades earlier published their own stock contest. At one point, 498 portfolios from the newspaper’s readership were appraised often by a broker, and the final winner announced at the start of the new year. The contests began in ’88 right after the Crash of ’87 and lasted eight years–an astonishing success, and despite messy corrections of stock values. Readership simply found the learning experience fun and especially when contest portfolios were exceeding the S&P 500.
Platform1 gives it back to investors with enough confidence and QC that makes the comparison of stock portfolios enjoyable.
