Operations
The idea of the company came to the now founder of the company when he developed a strong desire to make more money and he looked into investing as a way to do so. The problem he had was that he didn’t know what to invest in and he found himself spending a considerable amount of time researching investments. He also realised that there were many people that felt the same way as him, with the average person rating their desire to make more money at 8 out of 10. In his quest to make more money for himself and people like him, the Stockhub platform and company were born.
Stockhub Limited is a company that’s on a mission to make more money for everyone.
Its first product is a free-to-access investment research platform. What makes the platform unique is that it's the only investment research platform in the world that can be edited by anyone.
Evidence suggest that enabling investment research to be easily and anonymously edited by anyone will, in time, result in free-to-access high-quality research on the largest number of investments. [1] In other words, it will result in the democratisation of investment research, and help make more money for everyone.
To date, the Stockhub platform provides investment research on 56 investments.
Market
In order to help make more money for everyone (i.e. achieve the mission of the company), the company has decided that the best monetisation method of Stockhub is advertising.
Accordingly, here, the total addressable market (TAM) is defined as the global advertising market, and based on a number of assumptions, it is estimated that the market will grow, in terms of revenue, to $762 billion by 2024. For comparison purposes, it is estimated that the TAM as of 31st December 2020 is $578 billion.
Here, the serviceable available market (SAM) is defined as the global investment advertising market, and based on a number of assumptions, the company estimates that the market will grow to $183 billion by 2024.
Finally, here, the serviceable obtainable market (SOM) is defined as the global investment advertising market that is represented by the ‘Analyst’ personality type (i.e. the target audience of the Stockhub product), and based on a number of assumptions, we estimate that the market will grow to $19 billion by 2024.
Competition
The biggest competitors to the Stockhub platform, in a range of key categories, is Robinhood (category: investment platform), Goldman Sachs Research (category: investment research platform), Google Search (category: general information platform) and Bloomberg Terminal (category: financial information platform).

Risks
As with any investment, investing in Stockhub carries a level of risk.
Early-stage investment
Stockhub Limited is at one of the earliest stages of the business lifecycle, and the failure rate of companies at that stage is usually much higher than those at a later stage.
Illiquid investment
The number of transactions in shares of private companies is usually significantly lower than in public companies, typically resulting in it taking longer to sell shares in private companies at a price that is at least equal to the price that the shares were bought at. Accordingly, the Stockhub investment opportunity is considered to be higher risk than more liquid companies.
Valuation
As at 23rd February 2022, Stockhub Limited is valued at £4 million. The company estimates that the expected return of an investment in Stockhub over the next five years is 3,000x. In other words, an £1,000 in the company is expected to return £3.0 million in five years time.
