Wikinvest is an online community where users can add their two cents about the stock market

Wikinvest is an online community where users can add their two cents about the stock market. The community of course operates around wikis that are created and modified by all the users of Wikinvest.

This set up allows for users to submit their working knowledge of various aspects of investing. Write an entry regarding a particular company, or add your opinion on why you think it’s for a bull or bear market. You can do this for concepts or actual stocks. In addition, you don’t have to be logged in or even registered in order to contribute to Wikinvest. Anonymous contributions are tied to the ISP address. Information you’re looking through can be filtered by users or anonymous entries, company category, most popular, recently added, and more.

From your profile you can add bio information about yourself, include external links to your website, and add your blog feed so others can read your content. While you can’t add friends, you can send a public or private message to other users. In leiu of adding buddies to your profile, you can bookmark a user and stay updated with their activity in this manner. Wikinvest will suggest bookmarks for you along your profile sidebar, and you can choose to keep a bookmark permanantly here for easy access. The more active you are within the website, the higher your ranking will be, pushing you up to various “positions” like analyst or senior director.
