About New York Investing Meetup

If you are looking for a profitable alternative to Wall Street hype, the New York Investing meetup is the place to go. Our goal is to provide timely, unbiased, reliable, cutting-edge investment analysis and education that our members can use for money-making investing decisions.

We do this by monitoring, organizing and interpreting financial news to create an accurate picture of broad trends in the macroeconomic and investing environment. This analysis is then used to find which areas of the market offer the best investing opportunities and most dangerous pitfalls. We further refine our results for more immediate action by using technical analysis and to a lesser extent, fundamental analysis. We don’t just present investing analysis, but also attempt to explain the thinking behind it, so our members can learn over time to do it themselves.

We deliver this information with presentations by the organizer and guest lecturers. Lecturers are selected for the timeliness and quality of their material, their ability to communicate it and their lack of a hidden agenda. They must produce informational talks and are not allowed to use their lectures to make a sales pitch.

Unlike most other investing groups and publications, we are not afraid to make predictions. Our successes include:
