  • Zacks Investment Research

3/12/14

Lots of news coverage, which is useful, but their "stock research" is extremely biased. They hide the fact that they are receiving soft dollar compensation from the company for their "research". Companies can essentially "buy" positive recommendations from Zacks, so don't trust what they say

  • TheStreet

3/12/14

One of the better sites for online research on stocks. Authors are (for the most part) not totally braindead and they do some fact checking

  • The Motley Fool

3/12/14

Site is okay for investors who want to do some very basic diligence on companies, but content is very shallow and sometimes nonfactual

  • Seeking Alpha

3/12/14

Site lets absolutely anyone publish "investment advice" anonymously, as a result most articles are secretly written by stock promoters or short sellers looking to make a buck off of stock price manipulation. Premium service is also a scam, editors are only capable of selecting articles based on length due to their lack of financial knowledge and overall intelligence
