Wall Street Beats Joins Passes to Expand Distribution of Professional Investing Content

Passes has announced a new partnership with Wall Street Beats, a prominent financial content platform, in a move that brings institutional-grade investment insight to the creator economy. The partnership marks Passes’ first expansion into the financial creator vertical and enables Wall Street Beats to scale its content delivery and community access through Passes’ advanced suite of subscriber tools.

Wall Street Beats will shift its subscription model to the Passes ecosystem, offering members curated investment education and analysis, direct messaging, live updates, and exclusive video content. Since its launch in 2024, Wall Street Beats has attracted a wide audience of investors, from individuals just entering the market to major hedge funds and family offices, by delivering detailed, unbiased market intelligence across sectors including technology, energy, retail, and healthcare.

“Wall Street Beats has demystified the world of investing”

Lucy Guo, Founder and CEO of Passes, commented, “Content creators like Wall Street Beats have democratized access to financial and investment ideas that were previously only available to elite investors and hedge fund managers. Leveraging our tech offerings, the seasoned team behind Wall Street Beats will help us champion this vertical forward and reach new audiences to grow their community. Wall Street Beats has demystified the world of investing through unbiased, relatable content, and we’re excited to welcome them to the Passes community to further advance the online investment landscape.”

Founded by Steven Lamar, fintech entrepreneur and co-creator of Beats by Dr. Dre, Wall Street Beats is led by a team of veteran analysts and investors, many of whom have been ranked at the top of their fields. The team includes David Maris, Bob Morris, Charles Peabody, Robert Marcin, Benjamin Brey, Nadine Terman, Berna Barshay, and Kevin Baker, all of whom remain active in managing capital and advising institutional clients.

David Maris of Wall Street Beats commented, “There is no better time to be investing or learning about investing than in times of great volatility, as it often creates short-term and longer-term opportunities. Our partnership with Passes marks an important expansion of our community and creates a launchpad for the next generation of innovative investors. Our mission is to equip everyone, from new and young investors to experienced institutional investors, with cutting-edge investment ideas, forward-thinking strategies, and unbiased investment insight. The expansive tech offerings that Passes provides will allow us to create a broader brand ecosystem and provide our subscribers with a level of access they have never had before.”

Through the new Passes-powered platform, Wall Street Beats will provide subscribers with masterclass courses, in-depth blog analysis, podcast roundtables with public company executives, and direct chat access to analysts. Daily market briefings and sector breakdowns will complement the long-form content.

Wall Street Beats has already gained attention for a number of its early investment calls. These include long positions in Bitcoin (+41%), Viking Therapeutics (avoid, +67%), and Hims & Hers (long, +400%), as well as a recommendation to avoid Nike stock (+30%) ahead of its downturn. The group’s track record includes a mix of macroeconomic commentary, technical evaluation, and equity-specific strategies grounded in experience at firms like Goldman Sachs, Balyasny, and Fidelity.

The move also aligns with Passes’ broader goal of equipping creators across industries with the tools to operate as independent businesses. The company has attracted a wide range of creators, from social influencers to professional athletes, and raised over $50 million in funding from backers such as BOND Capital, Abstract Ventures, Craft Ventures, Paris Hilton, and Jake Paul.

Passes describes itself as a safe-for-work, direct-to-fan platform where creators can monetize content through live streams, exclusive podcasts, private messaging, and custom storefronts. With Wall Street Beats on board, Passes now enters the finance vertical with the goal of delivering professional-grade financial content in a community-oriented format.
