What’s your list of tools, newsletters/blogs and podcasts for investment research and market updates?


I think there are way too many tools and too much information out there these day. I have gotten into a habit of keeping a shortlist of useful tools and information channels that I'll use for research and market updates. Below is my list, and I am curious to find out what others are using.

Tools

Trading View (http://www.tradingview.com/)

  • Charting tool, might be best in the game. I know a number of traders who use this for their personal trading and research

finviz (https://finviz.com/)

  • Very useful stock screener and visualization tool

Yahoo finance (https://finance.yahoo.com/)

  • Still the best free tool and database out there for basic research

SEC EDGAR (https://www.sec.gov/edgar/search/)

  • the go-to place for searching through SEC filings. User interface can be better, but EDGAR is GOAT when it comes to company-level information

Newsletters/Blogs

Matt Levine (https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/authors/ARbTQlRLRjE/matthew-s-levine)

  • Considered by some to be the “Michael Jordan of financial writing”. Incredibly amusing yet insightful stuff.

Professor Siegel's Weekly Commentary (https://resources.wisdomtree.com/weekly-siegel-commentary/archive)

  • Round-up of the latest in the market. US-centric but there's enough depth to see what the market narratives are

Doomberg (https://doomberg.substack.com/)

  • Good source of economic, policy, and financial insights

Hedder (http://www.hedder.com/)

  • Newsletters written by former hedge fund managers and traders across different verticals and asset classes

Well Fargo (https://www.wellsfargo.com/cib/insights/economics/weekly-commentary/)

  • Comprehensive weekly report covering global markets. This kind of gets the job done for me since I don't have access to those by bulge brackets banks

Podcast

The Memo by Howard Marks (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-memo-by-howard-marks/id1521551570)

  • a great podcast where Howard Marks (Oaktree) shares his thoughts on the investment landscape.

Paul Donovan (UBS) daily audio (https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/ubs-on-air-market-moves/id1447407862)

  • short and sweet daily update, no bs (under 5 min each)

Hedge Fund Tips(https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hedge-fund-tips-with-tom-hayes/id1493606182)

  • good round-up of market narratives and latest trends from a buyside perspective

Odd Lots (https://www.bloomberg.com/oddlots)
