Epsilon Theory is an exploration of the most powerful force in our social world - narrative.
Narrative is the power of the crowd watching the crowd. It builds cathedrals, it starts revolutions, it wins elections, and it moves markets. We invite you to join our Pack in figuring it out … and putting it to work ... at www.epsilontheory.com.

The Epsilon Theory Podcast Ep06 - The Business of Wall Street
Very little of investing today is buying and selling shares of common stock in individual companies. Instead, we buy and sell what Wall Street calls "products". Mutual funds, ETFs, options, REITs, SPACs, etc. Dave Nadig, who literally wrote the book on ETFs, helps us understand the history and future of the business of Wall Street.

The Epsilon Theory Podcast Ep05 - The Gnostic Nationalism Narrative
Every political movement has a political philosophy, and for Trumpism and MAGA it’s the Dominion theology of the charismatic/Pentecostal church.
Neither the rise of Donald Trump nor the attack on our Capitol can be understood without an examination of this faith and its constructed political narratives.

The Epsilon Theory Podcast Ep04 - Hunger Games
What's happening with Reddit and Gamestop and Robinhood is a revolution, but not the revolution you think. This isn't a "democratization" of Wall Street. You were played. Again. It's a revolution in Common Knowledge. And that changes everything. Again.

Customer Reviews
Digestible Market Snapshots
Just listened to the espisode about the GME market ripples (Hunger Games). I found that it did a good job of covering the emotional appeals that drew retail investors to the stock, and highlighted one of the bigger aspects of this story: how blatantly the market was manipulated for the big players and what that will mean for the psychology of investing.
PS: Take a shot every time you hear "We all saw that we all saw."
Narrative Exposing
It’s great to see people attacking the narratives that come out of the media, governments, and other systems.
