Welcome to FinBrowser! I'm Max, a Software Developer from Berlin, and I'm thrilled to share my passion for the stock market with you. On this platform, I've curated the best stock market content available on the web, providing easy access to high-quality analysis, commentary and news tailored to your interests. As a fellow retail investor, I understand the difficulties of navigating the vast landscape of stock market research. Finding reliable sources amidst the sea of mediocre content can be overwhelming. That's why I created FinBrowser, a one-stop destination that saves you time and effort.

Let me take you on a tour of the features awaiting you on FinBrowser. If you're like me and enjoy immersing yourself in long-form reads, you're in for a treat. I've curated a collection of the best authors on SeekingAlpha, Substack, and individual blogs, so we can dive deep into their insightful and comprehensive articles.

But hey, I get it. Life can be fast-paced, and sometimes you need your stock market updates on the go. Don't worry, I've got you covered! FinBrowser also offers a carefully curated selection of the best stock market podcasters on Spotify and YouTube. Tune in while you're on the move and stay informed, no matter where you are.

At FinBrowser, I place a high priority on curating quality sources for the platform. Many of the selected sources have backgrounds as industry insiders, bringing extensive experience and knowledge from their years of working in the industry they cover. You can rely on their expertise to gain valuable insights. Investment funds are also featured, providing in-depth investment cases for their holdings, offering you a deeper understanding of potential investment opportunities. Furthermore, I include content from a diverse range of former and current financial professionals, such as financial analysts and chief investment officers, who offer their expertise on the market.

In this section, I'd like to provide you with an overview of some of the sectors covered on FinBrowser and the top sources within these industries.

When it comes to tech, FinBrowser offers a treasure trove of exceptional content creators. Not Boring stands out with his engaging and in-depth deep dives, where he explores various aspects of emerging technologies. SoftwareStackInvesting, on the other hand, offers insightful analysis of the latest happenings in the software industry, providing valuable information that investors would typically pay exorbitant amounts of money for.

While FinTech is a subset of the broader tech category, there's so much incredible coverage on this topic that I had to give it its own dedicated space. It's no surprise considering how much FinTech has boomed in the past decade, completely transforming the financial industry. The younger generation is all about FinTech, ditching traditional financial institutions for innovative options. This shift is definitely here to stay. Given how disruptive this industry is, it's important to not just focus on the big FinTech players, but also keep an eye on the up-and-coming unicorn startups that are shaping the field. I highly recommend checking out the thought-provoking long-form articles from Fintech Brain Food and staying in the loop with the latest happenings through Popular Fintech's coverage.

These days, it's common for most new investors to start out in the tech sector. But it wasn't always like that. Back in the day, many new investors cut their teeth in the small-cap sector. While some lost their hard-earned money, those who persisted and learned the ropes became some of the most well-known investors. Small-cap stocks don't receive as much coverage from financial analysts, which means there's a greater opportunity to uncover hidden gems or potential disasters. Fortunately, writers on Substack, such as Vestrule and The Superinvestors of Augustusville, offer fantastic insights into lesser-known businesses that may have flown under your radar.

Moving from small caps, let's dive into an even smaller realm: semiconductors (not the smoothest transition, I admit). The recent pandemic has underscored the criticality of semiconductors for the global economy. It's no wonder that experts often refer to them as the "oil" of the 21st century. As an investor, it's imperative to stay informed about this industry. Fortunately, there is a wealth of excellent sources covering the sector. You may already be familiar with Asianometry, a popular YouTube channel known for its exceptional and engaging coverage of the semiconductor industry. Additionally, Substack newsletters like Fabricated Knowledge, SemiAnalysis, and SemiLiterate offer valuable insights, providing a comprehensive overview of trends and individual companies within the sector.

Speaking of sectors with a significant impact on the global economy, Energy cannot be overlooked. With the onset of the Russia/Ukraine conflict in 2022, it has taken center stage in discussions. A notable source that deserves mention in the Energy space is Doomberg, a Substack publication that has gained significant traction. While you may not always agree with his perspectives, reading his articles will undoubtedly leave you with a fresh outlook.

FinBrowser offers a diverse selection of sources specializing in macroeconomics, with a focus on global coverage that extends beyond the U.S. market. For in-depth analysis of current macroeconomic topics, Apricitas Economics and Chartbook stand out as exceptional resources. Their detailed explanations offer valuable insights into economic trends and events.

If you're ready to explore the depths of macroeconomics, it's essential to delve into geopolitics, as it drives the global economy. Recent events like the Russia/Ukraine conflict and the unresolved tensions surrounding Taiwan serve as reminders that we haven't reached the "end of history." To gain insights into geopolitical dynamics, I've carefully curated renowned think tanks such as the Foreign Policy Institute. Their publication hold significant influence over policymakers and offers valuable perspectives. Additionally, I highly recommend Palladium for its informative, thought-provoking articles that often shed light on non-mainstream viewpoints.

I hope that you've discovered numerous new intriguing sources that will enhance your knowledge of the stock market. However, the sources mentioned above only scratch the surface of the vast array of exceptional sources available on this platform. I encourage you to explore and uncover them for yourself. There are thousands of valuable resources awaiting your exploration.
