Since 2003, ConsumerDirect has helped consumers take control of their finances, maturing into a massive fintech platform that earned over $100M in gross revenue last year alone1. And it all happened without relying on venture capital or private equity.
Now the company is preparing for a potential public listing*, having already reserved the ticker symbol CNDR2.
But instead of turning to institutions or private equity to meet listing requirements, they're opening this round to the people who made their success possible: everyday people who are taking control of their financial lives.
So it's no wonder investors are learning all they can about what's driving ConsumerDirect's success before the key June 13 deadline3.
The technology powering ConsumerDirect's growth
At the center of ConsumerDirect's platform is SmartCredit®, a suite of tools that lets consumers track and maximize their credit in real time. And behind SmartCredit® is Max AI™, a proprietary intelligence engine that analyzes up to 9,000 data points4 per user to deliver personalized credit-building strategies.
This is what makes the platform different: it's an intelligent system that adapts to each person's unique financial picture. And because MaxAI™ is deeply integrated into the platform, ConsumerDirect monetizes this engine through a diversified model:
Direct-to-Consumer Subscriptions – Monthly fees for SmartCredit® access
– Monthly fees for SmartCredit® access Affiliate Commissions – Revenue from credit cards, loans, and other partner products
– Revenue from credit cards, loans, and other partner products Enterprise Licensing – White-label and API partnerships with businesses
This high-margin, recurring revenue model has made ConsumerDirect profitable and scalable – a rare combination in fintech.
Traction that deserves credit
Since launching SmartCredit®, ConsumerDirect has helped its more than 300,000 monthly active users take control of their credit and financial health. That amounts to roughly $3 billion5 in combined savings through more informed lending decisions and personalized credit strategies.
That's produced $102 million1 in revenue and $10 million+ in EBITDA1, but what makes those figures even more impressive is their 88% gross margins1.
Of course, just as important is their business-to-business reach. More than 3,800 active partners6 now use ConsumerDirect's platform through white-label or co-branded integrations, providing high-margin, recurring revenue and extending the company's influence far beyond direct-to-consumer sales.
This mix of profitability, consumer demand, and B2B adoption positions ConsumerDirect for continued success.
Why investors are circling June 13
ConsumerDirect recently reserved the ticker symbol CNDR2 in preparation for a potential direct public listing on a national securities exchange.
To list on an exchange, they need at least 200 individual investors who've invested $2,500 or more. Instead of courting institutional investors, they're turning to those who power their mission: everyday people.
When you invest before June 133 you can receive up to 14% in bonus shares:
$2,500+ = 7% bonus
$5,000+ = 9% bonus
$10,000+ = 11% bonus
+3% more for the first 200 investors
ConsumerDirect is profitable, growing, and ready to scale further. Don't miss your chance to invest in a real business with real traction before its potential public listing.
Secure your ConsumerDirect shares before June 13 to maximize your stake in their growth.

Nvidia's Stock and Business: How Did I Do With My 5-Year Predictions Made in 2020?
Co-founder and CEO Jensen Huang is still leading the company, as I predicted in 2020. Nvidia's GPUs are still the gold standard for artificial intelligence (AI) training, as I predicted in 2020. Nvidia stock has "solidly outperformed the market" -- an understatement --- as I predicted in 2020. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › In March 2020, I outlined where I thought tech giant Nvidia's business and stock would be in five years, or in March 2025. It's now a little past the five-year mark, so how did I do? Overall, I'd give myself a B or a B+. I was mostly correct in my business predictions and accurate about what investors care about the most, the stock price: "I feel very comfortable predicting that Nvidia stock will solidly outperform the market over the next half decade," I wrote. Indeed, from March 1, 2020 (when my five-year predictions article published) through March 1, 2025, Nvidia stock's total return was 1,760% -- nearly 15 times the S&P 500's return of 118%. In other words, Nvidia stock turned a $1,000 investment into a whopping $18,600 over this five-year period. (Nvidia stock's five-year return through the date of this writing, June 4, is a little lower, as the chart below shows. Shares are up since March 1; it's the change in the 2020 start date that slightly lowers their current five-year return.) Nvidia stock's fantastic performance has largely been driven by the incredible demand for the company's graphics processing units (GPUs) and related technology that enable artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Status: Correct. In March 2020, I wrote that "as long as [Huang] stays healthy, the odds seem in favor of his still being at Nvidia's helm in five years." For context, Jensen Huang, who co-founded the company in 1993, turned 62 in February, according to public records. Nvidia investors should certainly hope that Huang remains the company's leader for some time. As I wrote in June 2024: Nvidia is many years ahead of the competition in AI-enabling technology thanks to Huang's foresight. Starting more than a decade ago, he began to steadily use profits from Nvidia's once-core computer gaming business to position the company to be in the catbird seat when the "AI Age" truly arrived. Status: Correct. Here's part of what I wrote in the March 2020 article: Nvidia dominates the market for discrete graphics processing units (GPUs) -- the key component in graphics cards for desktop computer gaming. In the fourth quarter of 2019, the company controlled 68.9% of this market. Nvidia has increased its leadership position over the last five years. In the fourth quarter of 2024, it had an 82% share of the desktop discrete GPU market, compared with longtime rival Advanced Micro Devices' 17% share, according to Jon Peddie Research. Intel, which entered this market in 2022, had a 1% share. Growth in Nvidia's gaming market platform will be covered below. Status: Correct. In March 2020, I wrote: "In 2025, the gaming market should be much bigger [relative to 2020]." By all counts -- the number of global gamers, total computer gaming market revenue, and computer gaming PC revenue -- the computer gaming market has grown solidly over the last five years. And Nvidia has benefited nicely from this growth. In fiscal year 2020 (ended late January 2020), the company's gaming market platform generated revenue of $5.52 billion. In fiscal 2025 (ended in late January), this platform's revenue was $11.35 billion. This increase amounts to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.5%. This is strong growth for such a huge market. It might not seem so only because Nvidia's data center market platform's growth has been phenomenal over this same period. In fiscal 2020, gaming was Nvidia's largest platform, accounting for 51% of its total revenue. In fiscal 2025, gaming was its second-largest platform behind data center, contributing about 9% of its total revenue. Status: Correct. In March 2020, I wrote: The company's GPU-based approach to accelerating computing is considered the gold standard for DL [deep learning, the dominant type of AI] training, the first step in the two-step DL process. [The second step is inferencing.] This statement is extremely likely to hold true in 2025, in my opinion. Since 2020, both AMD and Intel have launched GPUs for AI-powered data centers, but Nvidia's grip on this market -- which is growing like wildfire -- remains tight. IoT Analytics, a technology market research firm, estimates Nvidia had a 92% share of the data center GPU market in 2024. As an added plus, since 2020, Nvidia's GPUs have gone from having very little share of the AI inferencing chip market to having the largest chunk of this market. Inferencing is the running of an AI application. In fiscal 2020, Nvidia's data center platform's revenue was $2.98 billion. It skyrocketed to $115.2 billion in fiscal 2025, equating to about a 107% compound annual growth rate (CAGR). This amazing growth powered the data center to account for 88% of Nvidia's total revenue in fiscal 2025, up from 27% in fiscal 2020. Status: My timeline was too optimistic. In March 2020, I wrote: "In 2025, fully autonomous vehicles should be legal -- or very close to being so -- across the United States. Nvidia is well positioned to majorly profit from [this event]." I wouldn't say that fully autonomous vehicles are "very close" to being legal across the U.S. This event seems at least a few years away. But I continue to believe this watershed event will "turbocharge" Nvidia's growth thanks to its widely adopted AI-powered DRIVE platform. Status: Correct. In March 2020, I wrote: "Nvidia is incredibly innovative, so there seems a great chance that the company will introduce at least one major new technology that takes nearly everyone by surprise." Over the last five years, Nvidia has launched a good number of major new technologies that have likely taken most investors and Wall Street analysts by surprise. One example is its Omniverse platform, which launched in 2021. This is a simulation platform that enables the creation of virtual worlds and digital twins. It's been widely adopted by a broad industry range of large enterprise companies -- including Amazon, PepsiCo, and BMW Group -- for uses such as designing products and optimizing facility workflow. Status: Correct. Here's what I wrote in March 2020: It's impossible to predict a company's stock price in five years because so many unknowns ... can have a huge influence on the market in general. That said, given the projections made in this article, I feel very comfortable predicting that Nvidia stock will solidly outperform the market over the next half decade. Stay tuned. I'm planning on a predictions article similar to my 2020 one. Hint: It's going to be optimistic, as Nvidia's highly profitable strong revenue growth is far from over, in my opinion.

On June 5, Jefferies downgraded Chewy, Inc. (NYSE:CHWY) to Hold from Buy, highlighting concerns over valuation.

A close-up shot of a store shelf stocked with pet food and supplies.

(NYSE:CHWY) is seeing gains from sponsored ads and data-driven insights from its website and mobile application. However, the analysts believe that the current share price has already factored in these positive developments, which can temper potential gains outside of management's projected guidance.
