Where do you get your financial news from?
My go to is CNBC but that's by default as Bloomberg only discusses stocks if they have been bought, going bankrupt, or have allegations of accounting improprieties against them.
Fox Business only talks about individual stocks as the bait to get to the analysis that the stock and/or market is going up because of Trump or down b/c of Joe Biden
Anyone have other sources they use? The Street.com is/was run by Jim Hickman and Maven so it's been destroyed like anything else he touches, and Yahoo finance is ok, but I find it very generic and it's target audience is not me.
Also, what do other think of CNBC? I liked it much better 10-20 years ago when they were more individual stock focused. Today is more big picture macro economy other than the halftime report and fast money.
Thanks

From what I can tell, CNBC tries to be impartial, but can't seem to help but parrot whatever narrative Wall Street wants. I try to "aggregate" news sources (financial or otherwise) to try and water down biases, but these days avoiding editorial in any sort of news is just about impossible.godawgst said:

Lately, I've been diving into quant fin and have learned a lot from some folks that post on Twitter, so that's also an option, though most are just kids peddling stock pics, so YMMV. The Quant side of things is really useful for seeing the bigger picture w/r/t to the market as a whole, particularly in the short term. As an example, consider this article on option delta-hedging which explains how Gamma exposure from options is pivotal to market fluctuations:

CNBC is 24/7 of talking heads. I found my returns went way up when I quit watching. Call of the day. Fast Money...All sizzle. Unless you have inside information, which is illegal to trade off or a high speed computer with servers within a block of the NY exchange and high priced algo geeks to manipulate pennies on millions of trades every day, the only consistent way to make money in stocks is buy and hold with a long term view

I don't subscribe but I follow some on Twitter and I prefer them to CNBC:

Lots of good and truly awful folks/sources on Twitter...careful what you read but if you can filter to a good list you can learn a lot. Highly recommend Mark Rossano if you are in the oil markets.

CNBC - anchors are hotter than FNB and Bloomberg is boring as fuck. Enjoy Cramer and David Faber and Carl Quintannia trading no so subtle cannabis hot talk - you just know Faber smokes more dope than Bob Marley. Cramer has turned into more of a hedge fund shill than he ever was now that Kudlow is no longer a DC insider. Joe Kernan beating the shit out of that smarmy Andrew Ross Sorkin is also worthy every once in a while. Generally stop watching and turn on music after Squawk on the Street is over. More about the entertainment value than the content. Have naughty thoughts about Julia Boorstin and Courtney Reagan.godawgst said:

My Jewish Columbia MBA friend feeds me good shit. Mostly encrypted via Signal. Just got invited to Clubhouse but haven't had time to get hooked on another cesspool - this place is enough.
