Random Walk is for the curious and contrarian
Differentiated and ex-consensus. Random Walk is not a daily digest of whatever everyone else already knows. The WSJ already does that better than Random Walk ever could. Random Walk is focused on where the streetlights don’t shine. Zig where others zag.
Data-driven. Data forces rigor, and visuals are more information dense than words. Plus, there’s a lot of cool data out there that goes under the radar.
Generalist’s Delight. Random Walk covers a lot of ground. The only requirement is that the observations reflect something consequential and enduring.
Consensus is useful, so far as it goes. But if you want alpha, then your information mix needs alpha too.
Random Walk is an idea company dedicated to the discovery of idea alpha. Find differentiated data, perspectives and people, and keep your information mix lively. A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds. Fight the Great Idea Stagnation. Join Random Walk. Follow me on twitter. Follow me on substack:
