Things you might want to ask.
I've collected the questions readers ask most. Didn't find yours? email me.
About content
How often do you publish?+
Articles and videos follow research progress, with no fixed volume or promise of simultaneous publication across platforms. Check the writing archive for recent dates, or subscribe by email for updates.
What do your views represent?+
Only my current understanding. I update views as new facts emerge, and I label "I was wrong then" when I was. Investing isn't a contest of right vs. wrong — it's a contest of whose system holds.
Do you cover market events and same-day developments?+
Yes. Alongside company research and book notes, I discuss earnings, inflation data, central-bank meetings and market moves. The focus is why an event matters, what the evidence shows and what remains uncertain. I do not force a daily opinion or present event commentary as trading instructions.
About membership
Public vs member content — what's different?+
The site and most articles remain public. Only clearly marked member articles require an invitation, which also unlocks QuantEdge Beta.
How do I become a member?+
Membership is currently invite-only and not sold publicly. Enter a code issued directly by Minto on the membership page or a member article.
What does an invitation unlock?+
One invitation unlocks all member-only articles and QuantEdge. Public articles and other site pages do not require it.
About collaboration
Do you take brand deals?+
Yes, but very picky. Only brands I'd use myself or recommend to a friend. Finance, tech, lifestyle preferred.
Can you ghostwrite / run my channel?+
No. My content is first-person observation and thinking — outsourcing it loses the core.
Interview / podcast guest?+
Welcome. If the topic fits, I can usually schedule within two weeks. Email me the show name, format, length and rough direction.
About investing
I'm new — where do I start?+
1) Get spending, credit-card bills and emergency reserves in order. 2) Read the first four chapters of The Intelligent Investor. 3) Open a brokerage with small money (no more than you can afford to lose), observe — but don't bet yet.
Can you tell me what to buy / sell?+
No. Compliance aside, investment decisions must take into account your finances, risk tolerance and time horizon — none of which I know. I provide frameworks; the call is yours.
Do you publish your portfolio?+
Invited members can see my portfolio's directions and weight ranges, but not specific tickers or sizes. I don't want anyone treating my book as a trade signal.
