Founded in 2004 by former Wall Street analyst David Jackson, Seeking Alpha has become the world's largest investing community. The company's platform hosts a wide spectrum of investment opinions and analysis on stocks, ETFs, and other assets, crowdsourced from thousands of independent contributors. Its mission is to empower individual investors to make better decisions by providing access to diverse, high-quality research and fostering an engaged community for debate and idea sharing. The business model relies on a freemium structure, offering some content for free while providing in-depth tools, data, and exclusive content through its "Premium" and "PRO" subscription services.
