The 10 Most Inspiring CEOs in Business
Justin Caron, a key figure in Canadian fintech, is a believer in the maxim that anything worth doing is worth doing well. Justin, who has built three different enterprises, likes to impart his wisdom and sees success as a way to benefit others. His entrepreneurial drive was first ignited by an ironic realization he had in business school: “I’ve always had an interest in the stock market and I’ve always enjoyed solving puzzles, which is really how I see the stock market, only with the reward being money,” he states. “One day, I realized that you can go out and do things outside of what’s taught in school.”
Now that Justin is in charge of three profitable businesses, Justin continually strives to improve people’s lives by using a strategic combination of knowledge and experience. “I’d like to think of it as leading people to water, and trying to help them drink,” he states. Blaze Capital, Justin’s first business endeavor, was established in 2018 and is a media company that offers investor awareness for public companies with a concentration on Canadian small-cap securities. The Vancouver-based company served as the impetus for the spinoff he established two years later, The Algo. The business offers premium stock and options flow and sources its consumer base from YouTube. “It’s something that’s really never existed before, and doesn’t exist anywhere else,” he shares. “We have an extensive network and community throughout the world.”
As someone who’s been trading stocks for 14 years, Justin admits that his early days were not without their challenges. “I was actually unsuccessful for the first five years, but through that experience, I learned a lot through trial and error, and now I’m able to offer people the opportunity to learn and benefit from my mistakes.”
Through his YouTube channel, “Stocks Today with Justin,” Justin has discovered effective and ineffective market trading strategies throughout the years. He now shares these techniques with the globe. He has been highlighted in the Globe and Mail and has made a career out of assisting others in achieving success. “You can overcome any problems, as long as you choose to do it,” he states. “What I really enjoy is being able to help people help themselves.”
