Twitter is one of the most useful social media platforms. Unlike other social networks, it lets you connect with people you don’t know personally, but you know their tweets will add value to your feed. You can find experts sharing invaluable knowledge and experiences in almost any field. For new investors, it’s an excellent platform to learn from the best and most experienced professionals in bite-size chunks. Here are ten investing Twitter accounts worth following. They share ideas, insights, and data that will help you expand your thinking and become a better investor.

Following thought leaders in the #FinTwit community is also a great way to stay on top of current events and get some clarity about the markets during these turbulent times. Even though President Donald Trump tweets about Nasdaq and S&P 500 every day, he is not in our list.
