TipRanks Makes Bold Move: First Major Finance Firm to Disrupt Chess Industry via World Chess Partnership
Wall Street meets the chessboard—TipRanks just checkmated conventional finance by diving into competitive chess.
The analytics giant became the first major financial player to enter the game, inking a strategic deal with World Chess. No pawns were sacrificed in the making of this corporate gambit.
Why chess? Because predicting stock movements wasn't nerdy enough. Now they'll analyze knight forks alongside stock splits.
The partnership gives TipRanks exclusive access to chess data analytics—because what hedge funds really needed was another way to overoptimize their algorithms.
One chess grandmaster quipped: 'Finally, someone who understands that 'rook' isn't just a bad investment.'
Will this move pay off? Only time—and the inevitable NFT chess piece collection—will tell.
