Date: October 7, 2026
Venue: City Winery, New York City
In its second year, leading investor social platform Stocktwits’ Stocktoberfest gathering is moving to the center of the financial universe — New York City — for its gathering of traders, investors, public company executives, financial professionals, and content creators, to generate real conversations that move markets and build lasting relationships.
On Oct. 7, Stocktwits will sponsor programming of panels and fireside chats at the City Winery designed to address everything from macro trends to the future of retail investing with market leaders, traders and executives.
Stocktwits is offering a one-day pass to the main investor conference, which includes discussions of the following:
- Real historical crowd calls, revealed before the market knew the outcome
- Data, distribution and sentiment — not the trading UI — becoming the next moat
- How AI agents source signal, and the value of community-generated sentiment data
- How companies communicate to both human investors and their AI agents
- Top retail voices on building real communities and trust that algorithms can’t match
The day will begin with a breakfast gathering, followed by the keynote fireside chat with Barry Ritholtz, the co-founder, chairman, and chief investment officer of financial planning and asset management firm Ritholtz Wealth Management LLC, which has more than $9.4 billion in assets under management.
The lineup also features additional fireside chats, including two that focus on market strategies for individual investors and their portfolios:
- Social Arbitrage and the Democratization of Investing
- Private Markets: Getting In Before the Story Is Public
The event also fosters networking opportunities to build connections that will “compound over time,” according to the organizers. The programming is the culmination of Stocktwits’ month-long celebration that brings the spirit of Oktoberfest to the markets with community-driven content, interactive features and live events across newsletters, video shows and social media.
The role of artificial intelligence in the evolving marketplace is a core theme of the gathering. Whether in finance, the crypto markets, options trading, retail investor trends or the development of financial media, AI is expected to be a key player in the years to come.
