Your invitation to meet public company CEOs at our conference in October...

To investors, The finance industry historically separated investors into two buckets: institutional investors and retail investors. Institutions had a fiduciary duty to their capital providers and these organizations were largely thought of as “smart money.” Retail only had a duty to themselves and Wall Street largely thought of them as the suckers at the table. I believe there is a third group of investors who are quickly taking markets by storm. I call them “Independent Investors.” You can think of this group as the upper middle class of finance. They don’t have enough capital to qualify as an institution, nor do they have large teams of people working for them, but they are far wealthier and more sophisticated than the the traditional retail investor. There are three aspects that qualify someone as an independent investor: Think independently — these individuals don’t trust the mainstream media and largely get their information from X, YouTube, podcasts, newsletters and social media. Act independently — these individuals don’t rely on financial advisors, RIAs, or wire houses. They want to control 100% of their money and win/lose based on their own decisions. Chase independenc e — these individuals have convinced themselves they will not achieve their financial goals exclusively from their W2, so they view their investment portfolio as the path to financial security and independence. These independent investors tend to be digital-natives with high income and 7 or 8-figure net worths. For example, we built Silvia to help independent investors use the latest AI technology to better manage their assets and portfolio. The average user connects more than $2.5 million in assets. Regardless of the fact that independent investors are wealthy, sophisticated, and responsible for a growing percentage of all stock market trading volume, these individuals are still treated like second class citizens from the traditional finance players. I want to change that. I personally believe the independent investor is going to rapidly impact financial markets, various assets, and public companies. Because of that, I announced this morning that we are holding a conference in New York City on October 7th and 8th to bring independent investors together with public market CEOs and top macro investors. Current speakers include: GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen Opendoor CEO Kaz Nejatian 22V Research’s Jordi Visser Ondas CEO Eric Brock EMJ Capital’s Eric Jackson RoboStrategy CEO Andrew Kang and many, many others... The goal with this conference is for you to hear directly from the leaders of these companies or investment firms. Meet them in-person. Ask them questions. Build a relationship. Learn from them and learn from each other. Investing is a team sport where relationships, knowledge, and experience compounds over time. That is exactly what this conference ( From The Desk Summit ) is built to do.
