Our Story – About Us

We are Marc and Simo—two finance professionals who realized the need to establish a support system for retail traders. We co-founded Stonk Tech after years of working with large institutions and recognizing how they promote imbalances in the financial market.

Over the past two years, we witnessed the rise of free commission stock trading and a huge increase in retail trading participants. Along with this growth, we also observed various problems within the financial industry.

Let’s take a closer look: In big banks and funds, a well-equipped team supports a trader’s operations. The team provides resources that include, but are not limited to, tech support, quantitative support, research support, and risk management support.

Retail traders don’t have access to these resources.

What else keeps retail investors from performing as well as institutions? A lack of access to professional tools and data. Frankly, some of these tools and data are just too expensive and exclusive to individual investors.

This divide is why we founded Stonk Tech.

As retail investors, we need to collaborate, share knowledge, and be the tech or research support team for one another. Our collective knowledge and wisdom can help gap the performance bridge between retail traders and institutional traders.

We developed this venture to unite retail traders and arm them with professional tools. Our goal is to make the market not only free from manipulation again, but fair. As a result, we can trade smarter, together.
