Writer | Investment Advisor | Economics Wonk | Top 5% on TipRanks | Long Signal, Short Noise | Author of The Macro Obsession, a weekly newsletter on current events and trends in finance, tech, and the real economy. My work focuses on my quest to uncover narrative trends before mainstream financial media, a process I’ve been describing as the hunt for information alpha. It is chart-heavy, macro-oriented, and data-driven.I invest across securities and asset classes. My focus has largely been on ETF investing, and I am known as a macro analyst, though I do cover stocks that I am personally trading or considering for my portfolio. These are typically technology and next-gen energy stocks or large caps with a juicy story.“Successful investing requires holding uncomfortably idiosyncratic positions.” — Howard Marks, paraphrasing David Swensen “History does not repeat, it instructs.” — Timothy Snyder, On Tyranny
