About

Buy-Side Briefings publishes a market briefing twice a day — a morning edition before the open and a night edition after the close — for people who manage their own money.

Each briefing covers what happened, what it means, and what would change it. Every claim carries a number, and every number carries a link to where it came from. Around the briefings sit the pages you would check next: a calendar of what is coming, a watchlist, and sector, macro and global market data.

The site does not tell you what to buy or sell. That decision is yours, and it depends on things this site does not know. The job here is to put the relevant information in front of you so you can make it well — not to make it for you.

Each one is written in three tiers, so you can stop at the depth you need:

• 30 seconds — the headline in plain English, and the few points that carried the session.
• The evidence — the day's data points, each linked back to its source.
• The full read — the long-form note, with the levels that would change the picture stated explicitly.

A market snapshot is captured at the moment of writing — index and rate levels as they stood — so a briefing stays anchored to the tape it was written against rather than quietly reading differently a week later.

• Yahoo Finance — quotes, charts, sector ETFs, global indices and earnings dates.
• FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data) — policy rates, inflation, employment and Treasury yields.
• Reporting and filings — cited inline in the briefings, and read from SEC filings where a fund's holdings are involved.

Briefings are produced by a scheduled routine that researches the session and commits the result into the repository as plain files; the site rebuilds from them. There is no database, and no publishing step beyond the commit — which is also why the archive can be read all the way back.
