Financial News Keeps You Poor. Here's Why.

The scandalous truth: Most market news is designed to inform you about what already happened, not help you profit from what's coming next.

When CNBC reports "Stock XYZ surges 287%"—you missed it.

What you actually need:

  • Tomorrow's IPO calendar (not yesterday's launches)

  • Crowdfunding deals opening this week (not closed rounds)

  • What real traders are positioning for (not TV talking heads)

  • Economic data that moves markets (before it's released)

The financial media industrial complex profits from keeping you one step behind.

Stocks & Income flips this backwards. We focus entirely on forward-looking intel that helps you get positioned before the crowd, not informed after the move.

Stop chasing trades that happened already.

Start prepping for the next one.

Rough day yesterday, it happens. Let’s bounce back today 🙂 

🏆 Today’s Top Free Picks

  • ⚾ MLB: New York Mets vs Baltimore Orioles

    • Pick: Mets to win -125 (3u)

    • Analysis: The Mets do have mixed results when Clay Holmes starts (11-6), but he's had a solid year. He's only given up more than 2 earned runs (gave up 3) in one of his last eight starts. The Mets also have a solid bullpen (top 12 in the league).

      On the other side, Brandon Young doesn't go deep into games, and Baltimore has a bad bullpen. He's given up at least 3 earned runs in all four of his starts this year. He's also not pitched 5 full innings this season, and Baltimore has the 6th worst pen in MLB.

      The Mets struggle on the road, but these odds are too good to pass up. For -125, when accounting for the pitching matchup, we can ignore those road struggles.

  • ⚾ MLB: Houston Astros vs Cleveland Guardians

  • 🏀 WNBA: Las Vegas Aces vs New York Liberty

** See more about units below

A "unit" typically ranging from 1% to 5% of your total bankroll, and serves as a standard measure for the amount wagered on each bet. Smaller bankrolls typically use 1% or less per unit, larger bankrolls can go up to 2% for balanced risk, and experienced bettors may bet 3% or more per unit. For example, if your bankroll is $1,000 and you set one unit as 2% ($20), you would bet $20 for each unit.
