Mobile investing apps saw the fastest onboarding rates since

Mobile investing apps saw the fastest onboarding rates since early 2021 in Q2 2024, primarily in Asia-Pacific markets, where U.S.-listed EV and battery stocks have attracted cross-border flows due to subsidy announcements and lower commodity input costs. In a recent announcement , Samsung Electronics Co. said it will integrate Coinbase One into Samsung Wallet starting Oct 3, the company’s mobile payments system for over 75 million Galaxy device owners. It will give users access to perks like zero trading fees on select coins, enhanced staking rewards, and protection against unauthorized transfers. Public also emphasizes education and transparency. Instead of showing the more controversial practice of payment-for-order-flow revenue , Public routes trades in a way that avoids conflicts of interest. The app offers bite-sized, easy-to-understand content explaining companies, market trends and investment strategies, making it beginner-friendly. This cross-asset demand aligns with higher beta stock plays, suggesting retail traders are prepared for more risk if U.S. 10-year yields remain below 4.2%.
