Hello, we are the Stock Chasers
I am Simon (I really look like the guy on the right)
I chase stocks with my fellow chasers : Martin, Cody, Jovanni, Henrik, Billy and Melisa in the daily development and publishing team. That’s not all, we also have Dave, Allan, Mike, Martin W., Catherine and Doug in the editing and opinion summaries team. One hell of a team! 🔥
6+6 working to bring you Stockchase daily
We’re the Stock Chasers! Obviously, we chase for growth stocks. We’re also the team working on Wealthica, the app that’s known as the Personal Capital for Canadians that allows you to see all your investments in one place.
I have been building web projects for more than 20 years. I worked at iWeb, a Canadian Internet infrastructure company, for more than 15 years until it was acquired by Internap. I decided to pivot into Fintech after Amazon took over the Internet infrastructure world.
Unfortunately, I did not buy Amazon‘s stock a decade ago.
Stockchase and Wealthica
Out of the dream of helping growth investors win in the market and make simple consolidated investment reports a reality, Wealthica was born. We later acquired Stockchase and we’ve seen it as a way to let Canadian investors know about our powerful Investment Consolidation fintech app.
