We asked thousands of retail investors from our million-strong global community about what they're expecting and how they're planning to invest in the second quarter of 2026.
In a quarter defined by tariff escalation, geopolitical flashpoints, and a "sell America" trade that briefly spooked markets, modern retail investors are doing something that might surprise their detractors: investing more.
This quarter's Modern Investor Pulse captures that steely conviction — optimism rebounding, cash ready to deploy, and portfolios tilting toward mainstream diversifiers like ETFs — tempered by the humility to rebalance when the facts on the ground change.
The Finimize Index tracks retail investor sentiment across our 1.1 million global community and is updated every quarter.
