"From our traders to portfolio managers to ETF product team - each day we at Van Eck look forward to a new Daily Dirtnap installment. In addition to unmatched Wall Street entertainment, Jared’s market commentary and take on market sentiment get all of us to think about what we do differently and more creatively. The Daily Dirtnap is beyond refreshing when compared to the mainstream press.”
Jan van Eck, Principal, Van Eck Associates Corp.
"The Dr. House of trading.”
Keith Larit, Barclays Capital
"His insight into market psychology is matched only by his wit. He’s a voice worth listening to for any serious student of the markets.”
Mark Phelan, Piper Jaffray & Co.
"Jared’s insight into the market is not only informed by a library of histories and studies, but more importantly by an intimate experience with buyers and sellers, speculators and investors, punters and quants.”
Jason Brady, Thornburg Investment
"Jared does a very effective job of highlighting markets and assets that move well out of line with their underlying fundamentals, utilizing a quirky, self-deprecating writing style. He is thought-provoking and challenges your views, and is always entertaining."
Jerry Jordan, Hellman, Jordan Management Company, Inc.
"I have read a lot of financial reports, analyst reports, strategy pieces, economic dissertations, options strategies, and more. Most of what I read is repetitive, patently dull, or too complex to be executable. I look forward to his work because it has a concrete, executable strategy, combined with storytelling, clarity, and insight."
Maren Lindstrom, Lord Abbett, LLC
“We have been loyal subscribers for over 5 years and there is not a day that goes by that we don’t look forward to Jared’s insights. Through a powerful combination of wit, humility and timely observations it forces us to think differently, challenge our beliefs, remain intellectually flexible and ultimately drive greater profitability for our investors.”
Christopher Donnelly, Pacific Rock Capital
“If you can’t make money with this thing, then you’re holding it upside down.”
Anthony Greer, Dahlman Rose & Co, LLC
“I’m an investing and financial research junkie. I read about 20 research services a month. Jared Dillian is hands-down one of the best thinkers and writers on the planet. Getting access to Jared’s thinking and recommendations for the price he charges is a ridiculously great deal.”
Brian Hunt, CEO of InvestorPlace
“An unmissable and crucial read! The Daily Dirtnap is insightful, thoughtful and prescient. Jared covers a wide range of topics impacting investors with a dash of humor thrown in.”
Laurence Black, IndexVestLAB
“I have followed Jared's writing since before the financial crisis when he was writing his morning notes at Lehman Brothers. Today, I get to enjoy his fresh perspective on not only markets, but also his out-of-the box thinking on everything from social and political dynamics to baseball stats and musical references. It is still my favorite read of the day.”
Wasef Mattar, Mubadala Investment Company
“The Daily Dirtnap is my mind vitamin. Jared’s writing and insights are refreshingly different from any other research or strategy you will find. When I come back from a vacation I read all the back issues.”
Tai Wong, Bank of Montreal
“Jared’s commentary is consistently insightful and not correlated with other sell side research or private newsletters - it’s truly original work. It’s also enjoyable to read, so I haven’t missed one in eight years.”
Devin Anderson, Deutsche Bank
“I look forward to my daily dose of The Daily Dirtnap more than my morning coffee. Jared’s opinions are among my most valued, and are the ones I am least cynical about - he is always at least worth listening to.”
Mike Parker, private investor
“I am a proud and devoted reader of TDD and have been for many years. Jared has a unique perspective on markets (for example, his theory of constraints). But more importantly, he brings the human psyche into the analysis. This combination is often delivered with a clever deadpan wit.”
