Background
24/7 Wall St. was founded in 2006–2007 by Douglas A. McIntyre, a former tech executive who had served as chairman and CEO of On2 Technologies (acquired by Google in 2009). Cathie Wood, later known as the founder of ARK Invest, was a co-owner in the site's early years. The outlet built its audience primarily through syndication deals with major platforms — Yahoo Finance, AOL, MSN, MarketWatch, and USA Today — giving its analysis far wider reach than its own homepage traffic alone. It specializes in data-driven lists, investment analysis, and economic commentary aimed at retail investors and finance-minded general readers. In September 2023, McIntyre announced the sale to Flywheel Publishing, LLC, explaining that a standalone digital publisher struggles to spread operating costs across multiple properties; he remained as editor-in-chief after the deal closed. Flywheel runs a portfolio of content websites funded by digital advertising and has taken on no outside investors. Media Bias/Fact Check rates 24/7 Wall St. as 'Least Biased' with a high factual-reporting score, noting proper sourcing and a clean fact-check record, while observing that some individual writers have leaned critical of Donald Trump.
