It’s no secret that Twitter can be used to measure investor sentiment towards specific stocks and that stocks with high sentiment outperform stocks with low sentiment. The problem is that the performance of portfolios based on Twitter sentiment tends to be low. But a new study found a large impact of Twitter sentiment on another asset class: commodities.
Cute, but I could not care less about Twitter about investing. However, I do monitor the sentiment of Professionals (RIA, investment managers, hedge funds, capital allocators) and Accredited investors (not the typical retail meme traders). We have our own social media app and it is by invitation. It is not limited to 280 characters and the quality of posting is at least educational and not designed for clickbait. Just very interesting posts, sane discussions and usually powered by data. I still have a few invites left so if you want to check it out, email me. If you start getting popular there you can always do a link back to your newsletter. etc.
