Welcome to StraightStocks.com – one of the web’s most useful financial marketplace resources. Essentially, the site caters to the needs of two specific market segments: Investors (or interested readers) and Financial Publishers/Bloggers.
For an investor or reader of financial market news, StraightStocks.com is that one resource with everything you need. The key benefit for investors? We aggregate and filter financial content based on…
Financial News and Articles
Visitors now have instant access to updated news articles from writers around the globe. We now publish over 50 articles a day. Subjects range from individual companies in both the US and overseas markets to exchange traded funds and national economic status. We have bloggers, investors and writers from around the globe contributing stock market content in many categories, with new categories added as appropriate.
Investing Education Center
This area can be accessed at the top entitled “Lessons“. Included are a variety of up-to-the minute “how to” articles on all aspects of investing.
The bottom line? Our goal is to analyze the often complicated world of global stocks and, as our logo says, we’re “Setting the Stock Market Straight“.
StraightStocks is structured to allow authorized publishers/bloggers with information, news or tips on investing to contribute content; which our editors scan for quality and compliance. If the article is suitable, our editors then add the content to the website. This model allows for a great deal of high quality content to be added daily, providing users with a truly valuable resource for stock market news.
Many financial publishers/bloggers have created accounts and their content is published on a daily basis. Additionally, more and more investors are using the site each day. Our goal is to create a comprehensive stock market portal to provide our visitors with the most up-to-date and highest-quality financial content available.
Why? Declining U.S. market share!
The world market capitalization is ever changing as share and market values fluctuate, and the US share is shrinking.
The US market share has been declining steadily in recent years, while other markets have been increasing. Today, the US market (proxy SPY) has declined to less than 41% from nearly 53% as recently as of 2004, according to the S&P “World by the Numbers” report. In earlier times, the US share was much higher than 53%.
To a more detailed examination of this paradigm shift in global investment markets, see Richard Shaw’s article posted on our site entitled “Changing Country Mix in World Market-Cap“.
