Volunteerism In The Time of Covid
September 29, 2021Alexander Vanyukov is a heart surgeon in Moscow, husband and father of two. Like all of us, Covid turned his life upside down. Only, he wasn’t hiding out in a country house making as needed dashes for groceries.

Dear Readers…
September 26, 2021Today was the first time I mailed out a “subscriber-only” letter. I shared my logic for paid subscriptions a few weeks ago here. From now one, I will make certain letters subscribers only, typically those more closely tied to the investment outlook. If you want to read The Outlook and Ms. Eilish, sign up. If not, we will re-connect next week!

A Framework and Soros
September 15, 2021If someone forwarded this to you, you can read this post to understand what Things I Didn’t Learn in School is about. Today’s post is free. Next week’s will only be for subscribers. A number of you have already signed up. Thank you. I am going paid for a number of reasons. First, I have a small staff and I want to pay them more. Second, after years managing money, I am trying to figure out if there is value in translating an investor’s thinking to a generalist audience. Putting a price on this information helps clarify that question.
