If so, what is it? AngelList? Crunchbase?

For me the key element of HN is discussion based on evidence and logic. By that definition (and most others), I consider bogleheads.org to be the best investment site out there.

As befits the culture, the answer is: yes, but it's private, and if you don't already know about it, you can't join.

If you are individual investor, seekingalpha.com might fit your description.

If you are a professional, I can't see why you would want to critically discuss investments in a public forum.

It depends what you're looking for. If it's for discussion then Quora's your best bet, for links Twitter.

That said most investor-type topics are likely to be on-topic on Hacker News as well.

The investor topics on HN likely won't be from an investor's perspective. Quora is quite formal, so you'd get more "investor to general public" posts than "investor to fellow investor" posts.

I haven't seen one yet, but dmor does do a pretty interesting analysis blog of startups thats likely interesting to investors.

What would the distinction be between content offered on HN vs what investors are looking for?

For traders - that stuff is regulated, to try and prevent pump & dump scams.
