Stocktwits Editorial Policy

Since its founding in 2008, Stocktwits’ mission has been to power the global conversation for investors & traders of all levels in order to connect, learn, profit, and have fun. As the largest social network for investors and traders, we continue to reimagine financial media, tools, and services for the next generation of investors and traders. To better serve this audience, we launched our newsroom in June 2024, providing actionable coverage of the market’s most active stocks. As a news publisher, we utilize our first-party data to enhance our editorial coverage and provide a real-time pulse of the retail investing community that no other platform can match. Just as markets have evolved over the last two decades, Stocktwits has also evolved into a broader media brand focused on serving the globe’s most active investors and traders.

Our editorial team strives to deliver balanced and accurate reporting, relying on reputable sources to provide actionable insights into the market’s most active stocks. Our rigorous hiring process ensures that our staff have a minimum of several years of market reporting experience and are matched to a beat that plays to their strengths and interests. Additionally, our shift editors provide day-to-day guidance and mentorship to uphold the strong editorial practices our organization has set from the top down. We are a new and growing venture operating in a dynamic industry, so we are constantly learning and refining our approach to achieving our mission. As such, this standards page and our other policy pages may be updated from time to time.

The accuracy of our reporting is our main priority, so we include the following contact information at the bottom of every article we publish. “For updates and corrections, email newsroom@stocktwits.com” Readers can contact our editorial team with questions, concerns, or tips at the provided email address, which is monitored and responded to daily.

We strive to minimize errors by adhering to rigorous fact-checking standards for all editorial content. Our writers’ articles are edited by at least one shift editor before publishing. The information in each article is current as of the publication date, with our writers relying on primary and authoritative sources of information wherever possible.

As noted on our contact page, readers can reach our editorial team by emailing newsroom@stocktwits.com. Editors will work with our writers to investigate and verify alleged errors in a timely manner. Once a correction or update is approved, it’s posted at the end of an article. Any corrections or editorial updates made will be reflected in our archives and on our website.

Stocktwits' business partners and advertisers do not influence our editorial decisions. Editorial team members do not receive direct compensation from any of Stocktwits’ business partners or advertisers, nor are their performance evaluations impacted by their coverage of business partners or advertisers. All opinion pieces, advertorials, paid promotions, and other sponsored or partner content are labeled as such, while news coverage remains independent.

Our writers and editors may use their Stocktwits accounts to share their stories and posts about developments in the financial world. All views posted by our writers on their accounts are their own and do not reflect the views of Stocktwits. All members of our news team will be titled ‘Official STOCKTWITS Representative.’ Any Stocktwits ID that does not carry this title indicates that it does not belong to our team, and the company will not be responsible for the objectivity and accuracy of the posts.

Stocktwits' news team content is for informational purposes only. It is not intended to substitute for the advice of a licensed or certified attorney, accountant, financial advisor, or other certified financial professional.

The Stocktwits platform provides AI-generated briefs and other features to help users understand key events or moments in the market’s most active stocks. However, the Stocktwits editorial team strictly refrains from using AI in any form for its reporting. We may utilize subscriptions that enhance our communication, story research, or assist with other tasks, but we do not generate any published news content using artificial intelligence. The editorial team has dedicated staff to audit the stories for any potential use of AI regularly.
