Looking for a rich source of investment info, preferably free, about up-and-coming companies, market conditions, sector analysis. I basically want to reorient myself to the world of investing and hopefully pick up some ideas for further research.

I used to use Motley Fool for this purpose, but it seems like they have turned into a bunch of hucksters and I trust nothing about them anymore.

I like Seeking Alpha - and especially Phil Davis. He does a lot of hedging with options, so is a very good read. His website Phil’s Stock world (I think) has a very expensive membership option that I have not pursued. I just make sure to read Phil’s articles on SA.

Investopedia. But I am a beginner.

Also the onion is nice.
