At Marketocracy, our investment strategy is simple. We believe that investors should have to earn the right to manage your money based on outstanding historical performance and a verifiable, proven track record. To accomplish this, we vet the track records of our analysts over time. They must prove their abilities in order to be presented with the opportunity to manage your money.

We find the right people and hold them accountable for results, and we harness the power of the Internet to do so. In true meritocratic form, any analyst in our online trading community can achieve success given enough talent, perseverance, and persistence. We’ve found people with a passion for investing and are able to prove their talent through successful returns substantiated with five – to ten-year track records. These track records are compliant with GIPS standards, a global standardization of investment performance reporting.

Of these high performers, we invite those with top performing model portfolios to guide professional investment management of client money—your money. Just like major league baseball teams have farm systems for their players, we have a farm system for our investors. No major league team would risk their reputation on unproven players, and neither do we. From our investor bench, we pull our starting lineup—the best of the best—named “Warren Buffetts Next Door” by Forbes’ investment editor, Matt Schifrin.

Join us online today. Prove your skills, test your theories, and track your own investment performance.

We’ve got an exceptional starting lineup. Join our team today.
