Everyone knows Apple, Amazon, Microsoft...

But how do you find the next $AFRM, $PLTR, or $USPT early?

Here are 9 GREAT resources for finding stock ideas (8 of them are FREE):

1: ETFs

Look through the holdings of high-growth ETFs

Google the ETF symbol and “holdings”

These are worth cracking open:
▪️ $ARKF / $ARKG / $ARKK / $ARKW
▪️ $FFTY
▪️ $HACK
▪️ $IZRL
▪️ $TMFC
2: Fund Managers

Type a fund you respect into @Whalewisdom

You can see all their holding and get emails of any changes

These funds are worth tracking:
▪️AKre Capital
▪️AKO Capital
▪️Dorsey Asset
▪️Fundsmith
▪️Polen Capital

4. Screeners

@Finviz is great for screening by sector/industry

@Stockcard is great for screening by themes (like the mega-trends listed below)
5: Your Family & Friends

Look through your credit card statements

Observe the brands your friends buy

Notice any patterns? Find out if the company is public
6: Podcasts

These podcasts are great at uncovering hidden gems

7: Free Articles / Substacks

@themotleyfool main page has TONS of free content

I like @FromValue & Bert Hochfeld on seeking alpha

@Beth_Kindig has great content

The substacks of:
@jaminball
@marketplunger1
@StockMarketNerd

Are all worth reading
8: FinTwit

TONS of people share ideas on FinTwit

I’ve gotten ideas from:
@LiebermanAustin
@anandchokkavelu
@hhhypergrowth
@Matt_Cochrane7
@jablamsky
@saxena_puru
@StackInvesting
@TomGardnerFool

and SO MANY MORE!
9: Paid services

I paid for:
@TMFStockAdvisor
@TMFRuleBreakers

For YEARS before I worked for them

If you get 1 good idea from a paid service, the subscription more than pays for itself
Finding stocks ideas is one thing

Figuring out if they are worth buying is another

This is where checklists are helpful

Oh my Goodness!!!

I might have a panic attack due to excitement!!

Read this thread to the end...I just had an epiphany and my mind is blown. Actually, more than blown. More like OBLITERATED! This is the thing! This is the thing that will blow the entire thing out of the water!


Has this man been concealing his true identity?

Is this man a supposed 'dead' Seal Team Six soldier?

Witness protection to be kept safe until the right moment when all will be revealed?!

Who ELSE is alive that may have faked their death/gone into witness protection?


Were "golden tickets" inside the envelopes??


Are these "golden tickets" going to lead to their ultimate undoing?

Review crumbs on the board re: 'gold'.
