John Authers Keeps Asking the Market the Rudest Question: Why?
For nearly four decades, John Authers has translated the market’s daily noise into a test of logic, memory and human behavior. His useful trick is simple enough to borrow: understand the story in your own words before you dare to tell it.
Josh Brown Turned Wall Street Disillusionment Into a Media-First Wealth Firm
He spent nearly a decade learning how brokerage incentives could fail clients. Then a forecast-free blog, a well-timed conference trip, and an unusually public voice helped him build a different kind of advisory firm.
Joe Weisenthal
Joe Weisenthal is a Bloomberg executive editor, co-anchor of 'What'd You Miss?' on Bloomberg Television, and co-host of the Odd Lots podcast with Tracy Alloway. Known on Twitter/X as @TheStalwart, he has spent 20+ years making arcane financial topics accessible and engaging for broad audiences. He helped grow Business Insider into a 50-million-visitor destination, then brought that digital-first energy to Bloomberg. His Odd Lots podcast, launched in 2015, is one of the most respected finance podcasts in the world. He is also one-quarter of the band Light Sweet Crude, proving that a man can love yield curves and guitar riffs in equal measure.
Matt Levine
Matt Levine is Bloomberg Opinion's most-read finance columnist and the voice behind Money Stuff, a daily newsletter that turns Wall Street's most bewildering moments into something approaching comedy. A Harvard classics grad turned Yale-trained lawyer turned Goldman Sachs banker turned Dealbreaker editor, Levine spent his career collecting lenses before finding the one that let him explain finance to everyone who ever wondered what a 'synthetic CDO' actually is - and why it matters. With over 300,000 subscribers, Money Stuff is the rare financial publication that people actually look forward to reading.
Robin Wigglesworth
Robin Wigglesworth is the editor of FT Alphaville, the Financial Times' irreverent and free-to-read finance blog, which he runs from Oslo, Norway. A former Bloomberg Nordic economics correspondent turned Gulf war reporter turned global finance authority, Wigglesworth has carved out a rare niche: making the most technically forbidding corners of finance genuinely fun to read. His 2021 book Trillions - a definitive history of the index fund - became one of the FT's best books of the year, and his forthcoming A Fabulous Debt (September 2026) promises a sweeping history of the bond market. He is equal parts serious financial scholar and gleeful financial provocateur.
Tracy Alloway
Tracy Alloway is an award-nominated financial journalist and Executive Editor at Bloomberg Markets, best known as co-host of the Odd Lots podcast alongside Joe Weisenthal. With nearly two decades of experience covering global finance - from the 2008 financial crisis at the FT to cross-asset markets at Bloomberg - she has a rare gift for making the arcane mechanics of capital markets both comprehensible and entertaining. Her forensic curiosity and dry wit have made Odd Lots a must-listen on Wall Street.
