The Problem

91%

of retail investors make buy decisions based on social media or news headlines — not structured analysis.

Source: Dalbar Quantitative Analysis of Investor Behavior, 2023

  • Investors buy based on FOMO, then panic-sell at the first sign of red
  • No structured place to document why you bought, what could go wrong, or when to revisit
  • Average retail portfolio has 23 positions — most with no documented rationale
  • Existing tools (spreadsheets, notes apps) don't enforce structured thinking
  • No feedback loop — investors repeat the same mistakes for years

The Result

Individual investors underperform the market by 3–5% annually due to poor entry/exit timing and lack of disciplined position sizing.

Not because they're uninformed — because they're un-structured.

The Fix

Document your thesis before you buy. Get it reviewed by AI. Track it over time.

ITB doesn't pick stocks. It makes you think better.
