What a lovely surprise!
I learned that my work was recognized as one of the first objective sources providing market/economic commentary and analysis to the public outside of the usual Sell-Side channels or media outlets.
This blog and podcast were cited, along with Michelle Leder, Michael Kitces, Jim Wiandt, Aaron Klein, and Nate Geraci, to say nothing of legends like Michael Lipper and Michael Bloomberg. (full list at right). What a privilege to be in such august company!
Finfluential observes that “the institutional and financial intermediary space, in particular, has benefited from the continuous spark of bright ideas that challenge convention, modify behavior, better inform decision making.”
I was pleased to see they cited this blog and podcast as part od this:
“Introduced advisor-authored daily, unfiltered, opinionated macroeconomic and market commentary, legitimizing blogging as an expert platform for wealth managers.”
Sounds about right.
It’s always nice to see the work getting recognized…
