2021 looks like it will end on a volatile note. This doesn’t have to be bad news; experienced investors know that although a drop in stock prices can be alarming, it also presents an opportunity.
Of course, to invest well, you need to know what you are doing. And that’s not always easy. Between a plethora of online forums spouting the next big thing, changing market conditions, a supply chain shortage, a new strain of Covid, and the threat of inflation, not to mention corporate insider transactions, Wall Street analyst reports, and tens of other signals, stock research can be overwhelming.
That’s why we’re here. TipRanks gives you all the tools and data you need to filter out the noise and make informed decisions with ease.
TipRanks is offering 22% off its Premium package, giving you access to all the tools you need to make smart investment decisions.
With 2022 on the horizon, here are 22 reasons TipRanks is the only platform you need to make smart, data-driven investment decisions.
General
1. You can see how any financial expert is ranked based on the performance track record of their recommendations or transactions.
2. TipRanks is the only platform that simplifies institutional-grade data and presents it in a visual way.
3. Unlike other platforms, TipRanks features do not only focus on a simple presentation of data, rather they are intuitive, interactive, and frankly fun to use.
4. Information about earnings, dividends (including a dividend calculator), indexes, charts, and key metrics are also available, meaning you never have to leave the platform to find all the data you need.

Stock Research
8. When you research a stock, you will see the aggregated rating and the average, highest, and lowest 12-month price target of all Wall Street analysts in one place. You can even focus only on the top performers.
9. You can also see a detailed list of all analysts who have rated the stock in the past 12 months, including their price target, source of this data, and the star ranking of the analyst.
10. Analysts aren’t the only experts that we have data for. We also cover what corporate insiders, hedge fund managers, and financial bloggers are saying and doing, and present this data in an actionable way.
11. We have even more alternative datasets that you won’t find elsewhere. These include website traffic, news sentiment, risk analysis, and crowd wisdom – all essential information. You can even join a conversation about each stock.
12. If this sounds like a lot of information, you don’t have to worry. Our Stock Analysis page gives you a visual overview of a stock, including a data-driven stock score (Smart Score). It also includes charts, metrics, and even the latest news about this stock.
