Who is Chaikin Analytics?

About Marc, Sandy and the team!

After forty years on Wall Street, stock market expert Marc Chaikin, whose technical indicators are industry standards, has introduced a suite of groundbreaking stock tools to provide a directional edge for investors and advisors. Chaikin Analytics (formerly Chaikin Power Tools), which launched in March 2011, is a suite of stock research tools and portfolio management services that help pick winning stocks and drop losing stocks ahead of market shifts. The Chaikin Power Gauge Rating is the centerpiece of Chaikin Analytics—it’s a remarkably accurate indicator of where a stock is headed over the next 3 to 6 months. The Power Gauge is supported by the successful performance of three NASDAQ Chaikin indexes. When overlaid with the Chaikin Power Gauge, each index exceeded its benchmark by over 45% in the first year. Learn More »

About Marc Chaikin

After 40 years on Wall Street as a trader, stock broker, analyst and head of the options department for a major brokerage firm, Marc founded Chaikin Analytics LLC to deliver proven stock analytics to investors and traders, based on the Chaikin Power Gauge, a 20-factor alpha model proven effective at identifying a stock’s potential. Chaikin developed computerized stock selection models and technical indicators that have become industry standards (including Chaikin Money Flow) and pioneered the first real-time analytics workstation for portfolio managers and stock traders.

Chaikin Investments has collaborated with Nasdaq and IndexIQ to bring the Chaikin Power Gauge stock rating approach to the ETF marketplace for the first time. Marc and the Chaikin Analytics team rang the NASDAQ Opening Bell on April 30, 2018 to celebrate the one-year anniversary of this very successful launch. The Nasdaq Chaikin Indexes, powered by the Power Gauge Rating, have outperformed their benchmarks since their inception in April 2014.
