7 Great Blogs to Read for Investing Tips
Jan. 8, 2019
Financial blogs are a good way to stay up to date on movements in the stock market and understand how your investments are being affected by earnings, geopolitics, economic data and interest rate changes.
Many of these blogs are written by managing directors at investment banks or market analysts, focusing on finance, value investing, indexing and politics. An investing blog can serve as a guide to help you review investment options and reallocate or choose other assets to generate higher returns for your portfolio.
Here are the seven top investment blogs to keep you aware of price movements, current and future earnings and different investing strategies.
Indexology. The S&P Dow Jones Indices’ Indexology blog focuses on index investing for equities, commodities, fixed income, smart beta and environmental, social and corporate governance, known as ESG. Contributors for Indexology include S&P DJI experts, such as Jodie Gunzberg, managing director and head of U.S. equities; Hannah Skeates, head of global ESG indices and Marya Alsati, product manager for commodities, home prices and real assets.
Recent blog posts discuss the volatility in the market, commodity equities and futures, the spread between Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate prices and the performance of Canadian equities. The blog is published frequently, but not on any set schedule. Indexology's posts include helpful advice for traders and retirement investors.
Bull and Baird. This is a market blog written by Michael Antonelli, a managing director and institutional equity trader at Milwaukee-based investment bank Baird. Antonelli discusses the stock market in layman’s terms and explores factors that can move the financial markets. In Bull and Baird, he shares links to relevant news stories and editorials, provides market perspective and offers comic relief on market developments.
“I try and talk about markets in a way that is easy to understand,” he tells U.S. News. “I want people to come and read about the markets while also learning a thing or two.” – Ellen Chang
