Screencast: How to use Stockopedia's Activity Stream

CEO at Stockopedia where I weave code, prose and investing strategies to help investors beat increasingly corrupt stock markets. I've a background in the City and asset management but now am more interested in programming finance tools for the web.  Traditionally investors online have had very poor access to the best statistics, analytics and strategies for the stock market and our aim is to set that straight. Why can't there be total transparency not only of who has been buying stocks but why? High Quality fundamental information has been prohibitively expensive in the past and often annoyingly dull. People these days don't just want to know the PE Ratio and look at a balance sheet. They expect a layer of interpretation over data. And ideally they want data to be visualised. That's our sole goal... to bring these tools to individual investors around the globe. The other big bugbear of mine is the quality of information that often spreads by word of mouth. People get shepherded in to low quality stocks time and time again due to nothing but a catchy story like "China is huge, this company makes China widgets". Without true fundamental backing for a stock stories are just that... thin air... and as Warren Buffett says - "Its only when the tide goes out that you find out whose been swimming naked". more »
