Finance newsletters and etc to subscribe to in order to stay in the loop and be able to talk about stuff during recruiting?

I’m from a non-finance family in the midwest and am a rising sophomore so i would like to subscribe to some newsletters or something in order to keep in touch and just broaden my understanding. Reading this stuff seems like a great way to be able to understand how everything comes together and be able to talk about stuff in a more organized way. Also, it might save me in an interview when we’re talking about something basic but random, and I don’t know it because it’s not in the realm of standard interview prep. Also I do enjoy reading this stuff sometimes.

currently read Money Stuff and Petition. Any others?

While these are good sources to get news, it can be difficult for someone new to finance to understand these articles.

Subscribe to MorningBrew for a daily update on markets & the most important news activity. They do a good job of explaining. There’s a lot of other newsletters, but MB is the most common

 

WSJ costs $4/month with the student discount, great value imo. Also second the morning brew rec, but if you really want to find deal info see if your school has a CapIQ subscription and you can filter by deal size, industry, the IBs involved, etc. Super helpful to find deals to talk about in interviews and cover letters.
