Motif Investing

Investing with Motif works in just a few simple steps:

How It Works

Find investing ideas. We look for trends, ideas and world events that could create an investment opportunity.
Build portfolios. Motif Investing finds related stocks and intelligently weight them based on exposure to the idea.
You tailor the portfolio. Slider bars make it easy to change weights. Add or delete any stock/ETF until you have what you want.
Buy for just $9.95. No matter how much you customize, buy up to 30 stocks or ETFs in one motif for a total $9.95 commission.

Seek to Diversify Across a Single Theme or Idea

A motif is a carefully researched and intelligently weighted portfolio of up to 30 stocks that reflect real-world trends and investment ideas. Get inspired by one of nearly 100 motifs in our catalog.

Enjoy Low-Cost Trades
