Not sure I would call it "hyper" specialized, but Matt Levine's Money Stuff newsletter is probably the best thing I read everyday.

- dorkwood 5y agoI want to know how he writes so much every day. Matt, if you're reading, give us some tips.
- skippyboxedhero 5y agoPractice. Conversational style of writing. Audience that is used to long posts with minimal editing (Dealbreaker had shorter articles but his posts grew in length, references added, and the audience grew into that style...old Dealbreaker was hilarious, I seem to remember Matt did the CFA Level 1...he was going to hit the strip club for lulz during the lunch break, didn't but went to a Mexican cafe and got drunk...Dealbreaker 2008-2012 was pure gold, nothing like it today). I wouldn't try to replicate his style. Lots of people try, but it is like a virgin turning up to a BDSM orgy: you can't hang, don't try, find your own path. EDIT: wow, that Dealbreaker story was over 10 years old...what have I done with my life.
- audiometry 5y agoI was going to post this too. He's exceptionally skillful in explaining, lucidly, the small wonkish details of financial market matters that make the gem of the story. I'm also impressed by the breadth of markets that he's able to cover with that clarity.
