Financial News Keeps You Poor. Here's Why.

The scandalous truth: Most market news is designed to inform you about what already happened, not help you profit from what's coming next.

When CNBC reports "Stock XYZ surges 287%"—you missed it.

What you actually need:

• Tomorrow's IPO calendar (not yesterday's launches)

• Crowdfunding deals opening this week (not closed rounds)

• What real traders are positioning for (not TV talking heads)

• Economic data that moves markets (before it's released)

The financial media industrial complex profits from keeping you one step behind.

Stocks & Income flips this backwards. We focus entirely on forward-looking intel that helps you get positioned before the crowd, not informed after the move.

Stop chasing trades that happened already.

Start prepping for the next one.
