MELBOURNE, Australia, Sept. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Australian Stock Market app StockLight has ticked over $1B in assets under management tracked by its new portfolio ROI calculator.

The app has been carefully engineered to enable every-day mum and dads to invest like a wall street banker by calculating and exposing the true return of their share portfolio.

Unlike a typical performance report generated by the broking industry which is incentivised to stimulate trade in order to earn a commission, StockLight acts in the best interest of an investor by actually revealing how investments are performing on an annualised basis.

The opportunity cost associated with an investor’s holding period when calculating a stock return is crucial and yet often overlooked. The annualised ROI calculation performed by the StockLight platform is a new way of looking at performance for retail investors.

With the average retirement age levelling off at 65-67, investing with confidence has never been more important. The average retiree lives off their investments for almost a quarter of their lives. Although equities have historically been the best performing asset class, up until now the tools required to perform stock research have typically only been made available to wall street bankers.

StockLight is one of the most advanced retail investing research and portfolio platforms available and it’s available for free in the app store with a premium subscription option for more advanced features.

The artificial intelligence in the StockLight system segments and prioritises financial events to identify important market news and the platform delivers it in a bespoke native application directly to a phone or tablet, giving users a competitive edge.
