Favorite Newsletters?

I am looking to see what newsletters are people's favorites/go to as I want to sign up for various finance-related and market update newsletters. Are there any in particular I should sign up for, either free or paid for? I hear Guggenheim has an appealing newsletter

The FT has killer newsletters, but many require some sort of account or subscription. If you're considering a newspaper subscription anyway, their DD newsletter about all things M&A is really strong.

Other than that, being more on the entrepreneurial side I would recommend Ben Evan's newsletter, Founder Weekly and a couple VC specific ones like Von Perger or John Gannon.

 

Had a digital preview subscription for free and really suffered once I lost it. Didn't take long until I was back on it...

Zerohedge is a mixed bag, in my opinion. Used to visit it every now and then but eventually lost interest.

 
  • Morning Brew is alright & very popular so a good one to read
  • Bloomberg 5 Things to Start Your Day is great
  • Yahoo Finance Morning Brief is interesting most days
  • Techmeme is good if your work is connected w/ Tech at all
  • Investopedia Market Sum is one of my favorites bc they send it after trading is over for the day
  • FT & WSJ both have good ones if you have a subscription
  • Lastly, check out Vitaluy Katsenelson's newsletter if u want something different

I'm going to be a second vote for Money Stuff. I'm not sure that I've ever received any sort of economic value from reading it, but holy s*** is it a good read. It also gives you a bunch of cool edge-case scenario stories for boring work cocktail hours.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 
"Five Star Man" Is the daily dirtnap worth it?

I'll respond but might be best to check in with me in a few months since I just signed up for it recently.

I've always enjoyed Dillian's writing but never wanted to pull the trigger to pay for it (lol!). All the market voloatility a couple months ago and me making an effort to pay more attention to the market vs. blindly contributing to retirement made me pull the trigger.

I've liked it so far, he is great at market sentiment. It is not a "trading" newsletter (his words) but I've used things he's dropped in the newletter to make some good money in the last few weeks/months in the market.

 

Stratechery is THE best newsletter for Tech. It takes hard strategy concepts like two-sided markets and price war dynamics and shows how they apply to the actions of current players like Apple and Amazon. The concepts are intermediate to advanced MBA level, but he makes it very approachable.

+1 Petition, esp for any college kids who want to learn about multiples and metrics that actual investors look at for certain companies. Issue on Hertz yesterday was quick yet detailed summary.

 

The Pharma Guy and @Anon1254" would love to hear what you guys use for Healthcare.

I get the Paul Keckley weekly email, recently signed up for Healthcare Dive and MedTech Dive.

Do any of the scientific journals send something out for clinical trials and/or new breakthroughs?

Go all the way
 

My go to ones are:

  • Fierce Pharma/Biotech

  • Businesswire (healthcare sub-portal)

  • Bionews Feed (a lot of clinical trial related things)

  • News Medical/Life Sciences

  • HCP Live (rare diseases sub-portal)

  • City AM (pharmaceuticals sub-portal)

  • BioSpace

  • PR Newswire (healthcare sub-portal)

  • Life-Sciences-USA.com (also have European and Asian version of the website)

 

Axios edge, Axios markets and Axios pro rata. Also atom finance' s morning and afternoon briefings are nice and they have a short M&A section that hits the spot.

All free of course.

 

i don't read news all the time and often i just get the info from the title.

Only Matt Levine has kept my interest. I do not bother reading any other regular newsletter. Everything else I search for is targeted. I feel bad for not reading every single newsletter of his though.

made new unrelated account - dont reply or message as i never use it.
