Most “best finance YouTuber” lists rank by subscriber count or vibes. We did it differently: we transcribed every video from 32 finance channels, extracted their qualified stock calls, and scored each call against what the price actually did afterwards. Of the 21 creators with enough scored calls to measure, these 10 have the highest accuracy in 2026 — and we show our work for every one.
How we ranked them
- We only rank creators with at least 20 scored calls — calls that are 7+ days old and have price data — so a lucky streak of three can’t top the list.
- Accuracy = the share of those calls where the stock moved the direction the creator called. 50% is a coin flip; consistently beating it is the bar.
- Where we have enough buy calls, we also show a copy-portfolio return vs the S&P 500: what an equal-weight portfolio of their buy calls would have returned versus buying the index on the same dates.
- Every number here is computed from our data and updates twice a day. See the full methodology.
A caveat up front: accuracy measures direction, not risk-adjusted returns, and a 60% hit rate is genuinely good in a domain where most public predictions are never checked at all. Now the list.
1. FINANZFOKUS — 64% accuracy
FINANZFOKUS (DE, 168K subscribers) tops our 2026 board at 64% accuracy across 56 scored calls, and the portfolio number is the standout: a copy-portfolio of their buy calls returned +49.9% versus +24.7% for the S&P 500 over the same entries. A German-language channel that quietly out-measures far bigger names.
2. BWB — Business With Brian — 63% accuracy
BWB — Business With Brian (US, 400K) earns the most credible number on this list: 63% across 196 scored calls — by far the largest sample of any top creator, which makes the result hard to dismiss as noise. The copy-portfolio is up +51.7% vs +15.9% for the index. High volume and high accuracy is the rare combination.
3. Daniel Pronk — 57% accuracy
Daniel Pronk (CA, 270K) lands 57% over 171 scored calls — another large, hard-to-fluke sample. His copy-portfolio (+11.9%) trailed the index (+13.8%) slightly over the window, a reminder that being directionally right and beating the market are two different tests.
4. Aktienfinder — 54% accuracy
Aktienfinder (DE, 71K) posts 54% over 56 scored calls, with a fundamentals-first style that fits the measured-accuracy frame well. The index outpaced the copy-portfolio here (+25.9% vs +11.6%) — solid direction-calling, more conservative names.
5. Financial Education — 54% accuracy
Financial Education (US, 938K) hits 54% over 37 scored calls, the highest-subscriber channel to clear our accuracy bar. The copy-portfolio essentially matched a flat-to-down index window (+0.7% vs −0.9%).
6. Asymmetric Investing — 53% accuracy
Asymmetric Investing by Travis Hoium (US, 47K) shows 53% over 171 scored calls — and, like BWB, the value is in the sample size. The copy-portfolio beat the index, +23.8% vs +18.7%, one of the better market-relative results on the board from a comparatively small channel.
7. Arte de Invertir — 51% accuracy
Arte de invertir (ES, 1.09M) reaches 51% over 41 scored calls — the most-subscribed creator here and the strongest Spanish-language showing. Copy-portfolio +11.1% against +13.6% for the index.
8. Brian Stoffel — 49% accuracy
Brian Stoffel (US, 12K) sits right at the coin-flip line, 49% over 76 scored calls — included because that large, honestly-measured sample is worth more than a smaller flashier number. A long-horizon style that direction-accuracy doesn’t fully capture.
9. Felix & Friends (Goat Academy) — 42% accuracy
Felix & Friends (Goat Academy) (US, 660K) lands at 42% over 50 scored calls. We include it because the channel is widely followed and our point is exactly this: popularity and measured accuracy are not the same thing, and an honest leaderboard has to show both ends.
10. Stealth Wealth Investing — 41% accuracy
Stealth Wealth Investing (US, 148K) rounds out the ten at 41% over 27 scored calls, edging out the rest of the field that cleared our 20-call minimum.
The honest footnote: not everyone beats the coin
To be clear about what this leaderboard means, consider the other end. Invest with Henry (US, 479K) — a large, popular channel — scored 25% over 20 scored calls in our data. That is below a coin flip. We are not singling anyone out; we are making the case that subscriber count tells you nothing about whether the calls work, and the only way to know is to score them.
What this list is really for
Treat accuracy as one lens, not a verdict. A high hit rate over a big sample (BWB, Pronk, Asymmetric) is more trustworthy than a higher rate over a tiny one — which is exactly why we set a 20-call floor. And direction-accuracy says nothing about position sizing, risk, or whether you should hold through a drawdown.
The point of measuring at all is simple: in a corner of the internet where almost no one checks the predictions, we check them — for every creator we track, twice a day. Open any profile to see their live accuracy, their performance against the S&P 500, and every call linked to the source video. Or watch the consensus form in real time in the Terminal.
FAQ
Who is the most accurate finance YouTuber in 2026? By our measure, FINANZFOKUS leads at 64% accuracy across 56 scored calls, narrowly ahead of BWB — Business With Brian at 63% — though BWB’s 196-call sample makes its number the most statistically reliable on the list.
How is “accuracy” calculated? It is the share of a creator’s qualified calls (at least 7 days old, with price data) where the stock moved the direction they called. We only rank creators with 20 or more scored calls. Full details on the methodology page.
Does a high subscriber count mean better stock picks? No — and that is the main finding. Channels with under 100K subscribers (FINANZFOKUS, Asymmetric Investing) out-measure several with 500K+, and one popular 479K channel scored below a coin flip. Audience size and measured accuracy are unrelated.
Methodology: we transcribe every new video from 32 tracked finance channels and use AI to extract only qualified calls — a named stock, a clear stance, and real reasoning. Each call is then scored against real prices. See how it works.
