Introducing Soci
Follow top investors and traders, discover companies to believe in, and grow your wealth.
Soci is a fintech startup making investing social. We allow anyone to follow pro traders and investors in real-time, all backed by performance from linked brokerage accounts. We're founded by serial entrepreneurs with deep expertises in finance and building technology companies.
Why are we doing this now?
Over the internet, it's hard to figure out who is actually "making good calls" or "experienced" in the markets. Thousands of Youtube channels, discord servers, stock forums, and the like are filled with con-artists and scammers in already hard-to-navigate territory. It’s become very hard for the average joe to find themselves in an equal playing field with the rest of the market. The stats speak for themselves, 90% of traders lose money in the markets.
Behavioral Economist Richard Thaler has written about a concept called mental accounting, a bias investors are highly prone to. Moreover, the effects of cognitive dissonance also prevent investors from acting rationally.
What inspired the idea?
Soci’s Founder and CEO, Ali El-Shayeb, has been an investor for over 6 years. He was able to grow a $50k family fund into over $1m last year, through top-down research identifying explosive companies and algorithmic trading strategies. He was one of the earliest investors in companies like Nio (NYSE: NIO) investing from US $3.00 and Peak Fintech (CSE: PKK) investing from under CAD $2, pre-split.
In the process, he found himself helping friends and family build wealth in the markets. Soci was an idea to automate his portfolio by providing real-time alerts on his trades, backed by performance from his linked brokerage account. That quickly grew to hundreds of investors seeking access to pro trading insights and elite portfolio management strategies.
Today, Ali leads Soci’s portfolio fund as its principal multi-asset trader, investing in software, semiconductor, and electric vehicle companies. The fund has grown over 120% YTD, while hundreds of investors have benefited tremendously from his trading powress.
