Commonstock
Thanks again for tuning into this week’s episode of PitchIt. I sat down with Commonstock’s Founder & CEO David McDonough.
Commonstock is a social network that amplifies the knowledge of the best investors, verified by actual track records for signal over noise.
David describes it best during our conversation, investing has been democratized, but information has not been. Commonstock aims to change that by providing investors with verified information and track records.
David and I talk about the rise of the retail investor, the impact of the various meme stocks on the overall market, the perception of the markets, payment for order flow, crypto, raising capital, and much more.
Before you begin the episode, please take a minute to rate the show and provide feedback; I take listener comments very seriously. And don’t forget to join us in Miami on December 13 – 14 for Fintech Nexus LatAm; this is LatAm’s premier fintech event.
Without further ado, I present Commonstock’s Founder & CEO David McDonough. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
