Every day, in both ink and pixels, Globe Investor offers Canadians a wealth of insight on markets and portfolios. We want to now make it all easier to find and digest – and placed within a greater perspective in the increasingly saturated media world.
To do that, we've created something new we think our readers will enjoy. Delivered to inboxes every Tuesday and Friday night, the Globe Investor newsletter offers a timely view on markets and exclusive content to help make more informed portfolio decisions.
We'll point to some of the best recent investing ideas and opinions from our in-house analysts Scott Barlow and Jennifer Dowty, and from our trusted columnists such as John Heinzl, David Milstead and Norman Rothery. We'll also offer links to other great reads on the Web worthy of your attention.
But there's more to our mission than curation and links. We'll identify key metrics that put markets in greater perspective or help identify trading trends that may be flying under the radar. Because successful investing starts with a solid grasp of often complex financial matters, our experts will help educate readers by answering questions on investing topics. And we're giving readers a heads-up on some of the stories and columns being worked on in our newsroom – an insider's view, in other words, of what Canadian investors will soon be reading.
The Globe already offers newsletters on daily market moves, business news headlines of the day, and Rob Carrick's navigation of the personal-finance matters that affect us all. Our new Globe Investor newsletter will arm active investors with fresh ideas, insight and stock picks. And it will come in a complete package that will be easy to read no matter where you are – on mobile or desktop.
Anyone can sign up, but a Globe Unlimited subscription is required to access all of the featured content. You can view an archive of our newsletters by clicking here. You can also sign up at The Globe's Newsletter page, just scroll down to the Globe Investor Newsletter.
