The setups, signals, and stories that moved markets this week
One executive buying shares can mean anything. Several insiders buying the same stock around the same time is a stronger signal, and one the research takes seriously. Here is what a cluster buy is, how to spot one, and where it can mislead you.
Two well-known academic studies found members of Congress beating the market. A third found they lagged it. Here is what each measured, why they disagree, and what that means for anyone copying disclosed trades.
A House Periodic Transaction Report looks like a spreadsheet printed on a legal form. Here's what every column, code, and label means — and the details that quietly change how you should read a trade.
No fluff. No paywalls. No "buy this stock" pitch. Just the signal.
Every week we run through the same indicators institutional desks use — VIX, market breadth, moving averages, options flow. You get the summary in plain English.
We're not here to recap what already moved. We write about what the data is setting up before it becomes news. That's the only version of this that's worth reading.
No brokerage deals. No sponsored stock picks. No commission on what we cover. If something's in the newsletter, it's because the data made us look at it — not because someone paid us to.
We cover what institutional money is watching before it makes headlines. Drop your email and we'll send you today's breakdown.
