How Prior Moves compares
The stock-idea market splits into copy-trading apps, paid newsletters, and 13F trackers. Most charge a subscription and report only their wins. Prior Moves is a free research publication: it shows each tracked investor’s disclosed 13F holdings plus the names a per-investor model predicts they’ll buy next, publishes the misses alongside the hits, and never executes or custodies anything, you place your own trades at your own broker.

Prior Moves is a research publication, not an investment adviser. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell. The backtested edge is small and its confidence interval includes zero, a directional signal, not a promise of returns.
