Meet Barron’s Investor Circle

If you’ve found your way to this page, you’re probably wondering just what the Barron’s Investor Circle is. Simply put, it’s everything people love about Barron’s and a whole lot more.

At the heart of our new offering is a weekly exclusive stock pick from one of our new team of reporters. A live Q&A will follow, where users can get their questions answered by the reporter behind the pick in real time and discuss other market-related topics of their choosing. Subscribers also get early access to a second pick each week, and a steady rotation of ‘On the Radar’ articles, ’Circle Back’ stories about previous picks, daily conversations, a weekly newsletter, technical primers, and other exclusive content.

All stock picks are vetted by rigorous internal risk controls, and enhanced with technical and quantitative tools. We will use our powerful and rich archive of articles and columns to give us—and readers—the tools necessary to succeed in today’s markets.

The Barron’s Investor Circle, though, is more than just a place to get extra content. It was created to provide readers with insights, tools, and elements of community engagement previously unseen on Barron’s. Our goal is to empower investors not just with deeper analysis and actionable ideas, but with a direct connection to our editorial team, Joining me on this mission are:

• Nathaniel Baker, Assistant Managing Editor
• Allen Root, Associate Editor
• Teresa Rivas, Senior Writer and Stock Picker
• Doug Busch, Senior Technical Analyst
• Todd Chanko, Reporter and Stock Picker
• Josh Schafer, Newsletter Editor
• Jacob Sonenshine, Reporter and Stock Picker
• Dan Victor, Reporter and Stock Picker

In creating Barron’s Investor Circle, we sought to channel the same creativity and foresight that led Clarence Barron to found the magazine more than a century ago. While investing in today’s markets bears little resemblance to 1921—everything moves a lot faster; news is priced in immediately; technology and regulation have leveled the playing field for participants and market makers alike—the need to talk and engage, to understand and explore, remains universal. Our goal is to offer more than stock picks and investment insights. Barron’s Investor Circle is a place to share ideas, ask questions, and learn from each other.

If you are hungry for more stock picks, enhanced data tools, a more personalized experience, and access to reporters and analysts, you’ll find all this—and more—from this new premium experience.

We hope to see you there.
