Matt Levine makes sense of Wall Street like none other

only 150k? that's seems like huge for something which is almost a niche. How many people subscribe to newsletters? on these people how many are interested about the opinion of one guy on the details of market finance?

If you mean email newsletters generally, my own biggest is 172k but I know folks like The Skimm or the Morning Brew run into low millions of subs. A lot of it is down to how valuable and targeted the audience is and this guy is clearly winning on that front.

I thought something similar. Just to contextualize that number the LA Times only has 170 thousand digital subscribers.

And almost all of them in LA, even with a bias from it being digital so that's how you get it if you want it outside of LA.

Compared to Levine, who has me, in the UK, as a subscriber.

He has a way bigger potential audience than the LA Times.

Dude matt levine is a legend. I think that despite having no connection with the finance industry.
