NEW YORK, N.Y., May 13, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - StockViews today announces the result of its latest round of promotions, which sees the creation of 98 new analysts for the platform. These analysts all share strong analytical skills as well as a proven track record of performance.
The titles awarded today comprise 65 new analysts, 19 senior analysts and 14 vice presidents (the highest current ranking). To receive the title of vice president, a member must have at least five current stock ratings, a track record of nine months or more and an outstanding performance (At least top 10% in the community).
The top-rated analyst currently on the platform is Sam Quirke, who has generated an average performance of nearly 15% across his 7 stock picks over a period of 10 months. Quirke told StockViews, "StockViews offers a great platform to time-stamp your trades and investing ideas. I'm delighted to be promoted to vice president and will continue to aim for managing director!"
Further promotions will occur on a quarterly basis in July, October and January. The criteria for promotion can be found on the "How it works" section of the site. The analysts receiving promotion will be named at the next StockViews Morning meeting, held at 8.30am Eastern on May 12.
The StockViews crowdsourcing concept is designed to identify the top web-based talent. In a world that is increasingly dissatisfied with the output from Wall Street, this presents an online alternative. StockViews is creating a crowdsourced community of analysts and investors who have a proven ability to generate alpha on a consistent basis. Brian Godoy, head of marketing said, "We are very pleased to announce promotions for these exceptional men and women at StockViews. We wish them the best of luck with their future careers here at StockViews."
