Serial Entrepreneur, Financial Analyst & Venture Investor; Co-Founder & CEO of StockTwits
Howard Lindzon Biography
Howard Lindzon is a serial entrepreneur, financial analyst, and venture investor known for his work at the intersection of social media and financial markets. Lindzon is an author, technical analyst, and angel investor who manages a hedge fund, serves as managing partner of the holding company Social Leverage, and co-founded StockTwits. His career spans more than two decades of building, funding, and advising companies in fintech and related sectors.
Lindzon first gained attention in media with "Wallstrip," a daily business satire news video podcast that highlighted publicly traded companies trading at or near all-time highs. The New York Times described it as "Squawk Box Meets Saturday Night Live." The program was acquired by CBS Interactive, marking an early exit that demonstrated Lindzon's ability to build media properties appealing to both mainstream and financial audiences.
His most transformative venture is StockTwits, a social media platform designed for sharing ideas among investors, traders, and entrepreneurs. StockTwits introduced the cashtag, a method for grouping discussions around stock symbols, and became a standalone network where users share market sentiment, ideas, and strategies in real time. Time magazine listed StockTwits among its "50 Best Websites," and FastCompany named it one of the "top 10 most innovative companies in finance." Under Lindzon's leadership, the company exited the brokerage business by selling TradeApp to Public.com. StockTwits has more than 6 million users and 1 million monthly active users. Lindzon also co-authored the book "The StockTwits Edge: 40 Actionable Trade Set-Ups from Real Market Pros" to help investors maximize the platform's potential.
Beyond StockTwits, Lindzon has established a track record as a venture investor through Social Leverage. His early investments in companies such as Robinhood and eToro reflect his understanding of retail trading behavior and market infrastructure. Lindzon was among the first seed investors in Robinhood, which went public at a multibillion-dollar valuation. His angel investments include Rent.com, acquired by eBay, and GolfNow.com, acquired by Comcast.
Lindzon is often referred to as "The Larry David of Finance" for his candid commentary on markets and investing. His newsletter and social media presence have attracted a following among investors and entrepreneurs. He has delivered keynote addresses at events such as LeWeb and The Next Web Conference, and provides mentoring to entrepreneurs through programs including DreamIt Ventures and Techstars. Forbes has highlighted Lindzon's "Degenerate Economy Index," which tracks companies involved in gambling, day trading, and memecoin speculation. Lindzon continues to influence the convergence of investing, technology, and culture in modern finance.
