Great option for advice and research

Seeking Alpha is one of my go to’s. Whenever I am doing research of a stock this site is at the top of my list. I like the ranking, warnings, summaries and the competitors listed within the summary. I also review the recommendations. I maintain my own stock on the site. Will continue using this site. I’m new at this and it provides what I need.

Quant ratings

The quant rating alone are worth the subscription

Atrocious - App keeps “sticking”

I’m a new premium subscriber. I’m trying to enter in details of my portfolio. It sits there stuck with each keystroke and the lag is ridiculous. Trying to get the Menu to respond is like go away and come back after a few mins. Whoever is in charge of this app should be taken to the back and dealt with.

Good stuff!

Seeking Alpha provides good, thoughtful analysis!

Censorship

This site is loaded with extreme right wing types who are free to comment without being censored. Liberal points of view are highly censored.
The home of racists, Christian Nationalists and other unsavory groups.

Racist and discriminatory company

Racist and discriminatory company that mistreats people of color. Wouldn’t recommend supporting their products. Mobile app is a shell of its site. Lotta spammy content.

No more portfolio tracking

The great portfolio tracking feature will no longer update without a subscription. It was the one thing that kept me coming back to SA. Was a subscriber for years until many of the articles became nothing but clickbait with little to no substantial value. Leo Nelisson was excellent but I couldn’t justify a $300/yr subscription for only one contributor that was of any value to me. Maybe things will change for the better in the future.

One Stop Shop

Great resource for various perspectives on a variety of timely topics backed with thoughtful analysis.

Terrible update

Very little works now. Will not stay on the Portfolios tab, which is my preferred starting page. The customization page does not work and requires closing the app to exit.

Moderators censor conservatives

SA used to be a good site. But after Trump became POTUS most comment sections turned into deranged Liberal ranting. They can say literally anything, but conservative comments get censored and the Commenter gets put into “review” so every post has to be approved by the censors. This only happens for Conservative posters, the other side posts literally anything with no censorship. I’ve been in moderator review 3x for nothing that is against SA posted rules, only that I defend Conservatives.

An Essential App if you own or plan to buy Stocks

Best of Breed by a Mile. Premium services are pricey but Wirth eve

Possibly the best in my opinion

A complex, thorough yet easy to use platform, rich in useful functions, screens, portfolio builder, AI powered system highly useful, definitely the right choice for professionals and also the way forward for non-professionals. Very impressed by this wonderful conglomerate of data, market analysis, news and so much more provider.

Cookies

Been a subscriber for 2yrs. Why are you just now asking if I will “Accept All Cookies”? I don’t want to share my data and I care about my privacy. You respond to all these reviews so I want an answer as to why you’re all of a sudden requesting this

Exceptional

The commentary from the various writers on this platform are truly amazing, exceptional and inspiring !!
I have been a subscriber for several years now and woefully grateful to this EXCEPTIONAL PLATFORM !!

Those not subscribing are truly missing out !

Cudo’s to Seeking Alpha !!!!

Freedom Of Speech not Tolerated/Many Bugs

Tons of pro-Trump writers and articles but if you say one tiny thing negative (site is run by Israelis) you’ll get banned. If you say anything about either one that’s not praising them you will get censored. Many have been banned. Their censorship is draconian. There are better sites nowadays for free this one has jumped the shark..

And the bugs! Constantly makes my phone get extremely hot and slows down making it unusable. It was unusable a year or so ago but it’s still just awful and $300 a year? No thanks Tom Hanks.

Freedom Of Speech not Tolerated

Tons of pro-Trump writers and articles but if you say one tiny thing negative (site is run by Israelis) you’ll get banned. Even for small remarks.

Seeking Alpha is My real CoPilot

SA is my breakfast source of market news, followed by the Wallstreet Breakfast and Lunch podcasts, as well as my day wrap up source of ideas for any needed adjustments in my portfolio before the day ends. My trustworthy CoPilot for the last many years
