This week, Public.com finalized its acquisition of TradeApp investment accounts. The development follows Stocktwits’ shift in focus to becoming the hub for online retail sentiment.
Accordingly, tens of thousands of Stocktwits TradeApp brokerage customers will move to Public and gain access to AI-assisted analysis, a vibrant social community, and diverse investments, including stocks, ETFs, options, crypto, bonds, and alternative assets.
In comments on the development, Public and Stocktwits said they would work on expanding their relationship and collaborate on various outreach endeavors, including Stocktwits co-founder and CEO Howard Lindzon's upcoming show, “Trends with Friends.”
Lindzon said Stocktwits was committed to fostering social interactions and real-time discussions, noting, “Members will be able to access a full breadth of brokerage services on Public and still access Stocktwits for vital data and news and the new 24/7/365 era of crypto that will be available on Stocktwits.”
Stephen Sikes, COO of Public, added that he was enthusiastic about continued momentum, noting that both platforms share many similarities.
“After launching bonds, a high-yield cash account, and options trading, Public’s platform has earned the right to be the primary brokerage platform for many investors, and we look forward to offering the full breadth of our platform to Stocktwits customers.”
