I use these tools to improve my investment, get quality data, and analyst information, and monitor and manage my portfolio. I've found them useful; hopefully you will too. ## Items ### 1. [Data](https://listium.com/@financemark/86515/best-investing-tools-and-apps/0/data) Item ID: `0` - Name: Simply Wall St - Logo: ![Logo](https://img.listium.com/images/width=800,height=800,fit=scale-down,format=webp/l/odtjh7iifzkcbq8urjht.jpg) - Link: [https://simplywall.st/?via=mark](https://simplywall.st/?via=mark) - Notes: > Simply Wall St has data on almost any listed company. They also have several useful features: > > 1. Analyst forecasts: They have analyst consensus EPS and valuations. However, you must obtain this individually for each company rather than via bulk download. > 2. Valuations: Simply Wall St has an approximate fundamental value for each company. This is a Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE) valuation that is based on analyst forecasts. > 3. Fundamental information: Simply Wall St has fundamental data on firms, including valuation multiples. ### 2. [Data](https://listium.com/@financemark/86515/best-investing-tools-and-apps/1/data) Item ID: `1` - Name: Seeking Alpha - Logo: ![Logo](https://img.listium.com/images/width=800,height=800,fit=scale-down,format=webp/l/pfcxhszdt75m1o3qujcn.png) - Link: [https://subscriptions.seekingalpha.com/lp\_premium\_special\_offer\_ft?source=affiliate\_program:&utm\_medium=affiliate&utm\_source=&affid=354&oid=16&transaction=&oid=16&affid=354](https://subscriptions.seekingalpha.com/lp_premium_special_offer_ft?source=affiliate_program:&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=&affid=354&oid=16&transaction=&oid=16&affid=354) - Notes: > Seeking Alpha is most useful for analyst forecasts. This includes forecasts and ratings from individual community members. This enables Seeking Alpha to solicit viewpoints from a broad range of investors. > > Seeking Alpha also has a quant-like model that purports to rate firms across various quant matrics. ### 3. [Account Keeping and Monitoring](https://listium.com/@financemark/86515/best-investing-tools-and-apps/2/account-keeping-and-monitoring) Item ID: `2` - Name: Sharesight - Logo: ![Logo](https://img.listium.com/images/width=800,height=800,fit=scale-down,format=webp/l/zoq1ickwjhqjz1nalqxv.jpg) - Link: [https://www.sharesight.com/financemark](https://www.sharesight.com/financemark) - Notes: Sharesight is a portfolio tracking and analysis tool. It enables you to track performance and monitor your portfolio. This can be especially useful when holding stocks in multiple countries and when you must keep track of capital gains and dividends. ### 4. [Currency Conversion](https://listium.com/@financemark/86515/best-investing-tools-and-apps/3/currency-conversion) Item ID: `3` - Name: Airwallex - Logo: ![Logo](https://img.listium.com/images/width=800,height=800,fit=scale-down,format=webp/l/w9oeva8z5b19urypnnmx.png) - Link: [https://www.airwallex.com/sme/hk/r/login/Acwes-0pbl7fqAZPdl8v5G1\_D9bT7siwjc3t](https://www.airwallex.com/sme/hk/r/login/Acwes-0pbl7fqAZPdl8v5G1_D9bT7siwjc3t) - Notes: > Airwallex allows people to have accounts in multiple currencies. This enables online transactions and deposits into brokers. > > Airwallex's main use in this context is for currency conversion and as a conduit. For example, to trade US stocks, an investor might use Interactive Brokers. The investor could deposit USD into interactive brokers, rather than bearing fees and costs exchanging within interactive brokers. > > As with any bank account, it is important to ensure that you are comfortable with the bank in which Airwallex keeps your funds. ### 5. [Trading](https://listium.com/@financemark/86515/best-investing-tools-and-apps/4/trading) Item ID: `4` - Name: Stake - Logo: ![Logo](https://img.listium.com/images/width=800,height=800,fit=scale-down,format=webp/l/jq7zx4g6wlelthei4x2d.png) - Link: [https://hellostake.com/r/markh433](https://hellostake.com/r/markh433) - Notes: Stake is most useful for trading ASX listed companies when you have already decided what to trade. Each trade is $3. This is low for Australian stock trades. The base Stake offering is no frills: it lacks some of the features that other brokers have. However, you can use those brokers for their tools and trade on Stake to save money. ### 6. [Trading](https://listium.com/@financemark/86515/best-investing-tools-and-apps/5/trading) Item ID: `5` - Name: Interactive Brokers - Logo: ![Logo](https://img.listium.com/images/width=800,height=800,fit=scale-down,format=webp/l/fkrfyskj8wz8pwi9vhwi.png) - Link: [https://ibkr.com/referral/mark9069](https://ibkr.com/referral/mark9069) - Notes: > Interactive Brokers allows trade across a large number of asset classes in a large number of countries. This includes options on US stocks and indexes. I primarily use Interactive Brokers when trading derivatives in the US. There are other options. However, I have become comfortable with Interactive Brokers's interface and the fees are acceptable. > > Note that you could use a $0 commission broker for some US trades instead of Interactive Brokers. And, it is always wise to spread your portfolio across brokers when using custodial brokers.
