Groundbreaking Investing Site Allows Clients of a Top Online Broker to Import Portfolios, Analyze Holdings, and Trade Stocks & ETFs Live
New York, NY, July 22, 2010 – KAPITALL, the leading investing website for the Facebook generation, announced the launch of live stock trading via one of America’s top online brokers. In a first-of-its-kind partnership, clients of this leading brokerage firm will now be able to trade their stock portfolios directly from KAPITALL’s website. And current users of KAPITALL’s innovative investing tools will now have the choice to execute live trades.
Starting today, a KAPITALL user can import an existing portfolio or open a new brokerage account with KAPITALL’s partner. The user gains access to KAPITALL’s full suite of innovative investing tools to track their portfolio’s performance, analyze their holdings, and trade stocks and ETFs directly from KAPITALL. Every trade on KAPITALL will be automatically synched with their brokerage account.
“At KAPITALL, we are leading the future of online investing for the next generation of investors. With the launch of this strategic partnership, KAPITALL’s users can now advance beyond our Practice Portfolios to begin live trading,” said CEO Gaspard de Dreuzy. “Clients of our partner are also invited to engage and collaborate in KAPITALL’s vibrant investing community.”
This unique partnership mirrors a larger trend of internet users networking across websites. Rather than remain isolated within a single investing site, the clients of KAPITALL’s partner can fully participate in KAPITALL’s community with the added benefit of full trading functionality. For KAPITALL’s users, the access to live stock trading enhances the distinctive KAPITALL user experience.
