StockTwits launches MoneyBadger website

StockTwits Inc. announced Friday that it has launched a website called MoneyBadger.com for new and casual investors.

Money Badger will include intraday market stories, provide basic investing education, and bring the stories that live in the daily StockTwits streams to life for the occasional investor or those new to trading.

“Many financial news sites provide information on markets or investing, but Money Badger is the first to bring the incredibly interesting world of the trading floor, seen through the eyes of traders rather than media, to the public- and to relate that world to people’s own daily lives and goals,” said StockTwits CEO Ian Rosen in a statement.

Scott Steinhardt is the editor in chief of MoneyBadger. He previously was a senior editor at Boredom Therapy.
