With the development of the internet era, social media's influence is growing, and so is its impact on investments.
Surveys show that 34% seek financial advice from TikTok, 33% obtain financial advice from YouTube, while only 24% seek advice from financial advisors.
As individual investors, where do you get investment advice?
TikTok has captured the hearts of most users due to its short content format and straightforward expression;
YouTube provides videos of around 10-20 minutes, allowing investors to gain a deeper understanding of financial concepts;
Pro financial advisors can provide detailed investment plans and advice, but generally at a high cost.
Retail investors want pro and free financial advice
Most investors may want to obtain investment tips from professional financial experts for free on financial platforms. This has become a trend in financial platforms today.
However, identifying who is a professional investor and determining whether financial content is beneficial have become the most concerning issues for individual investors.
Why not consider obtaining trading clues from Trade Feed, where you can follow investors with high winning rates and similar trading styles.

🌟🌟🌟Investing is very much a personal journey and while it is good to learn from the experts, it is important to be cognitive of the pitfalls of following blindly. I like to read the latest news from Wall Street Journal, Reuters as well as our local papers like Business Times and the Edge. I do watch YouTube videos too but I am selective on these.
I also subscribe to Tiger Trade Feeds where I can find out how some of my Tiger Friends are trading. It is a valuable resource and together with other articles that Tiger Brokers post daily, I get a snapshot of the latest news on the financial markets. Ultimately the onus is on me to decide which news are relevant and appropriate to suit my investing strategy.

some of them are actual financial advisors while some... not quite so I guess it's good to listen to them (those legit ones), their analysis, explanation, etc...
however, please do not take their words and invest blindly without doing further research as they may not be always right in their predictions.
take charge of your own finances and investment and always trade within limit. always remember to have risk management and have a diversify portfolio.
this way, you can ensure you sleep well at night.
