Too much overlap with Morning Brew

Aug 27

yungcarbi

Great idea, love markets and there are some insightful takes on smaller deals here and there, but I think generally too much time is spent covering the exact same stories as morning brew daily. A lot of those sections could be abbreviated or even mentioned quickly as “see morning brew daily today for more info” and actually dive into the finance behind it but don’t regurgitate the same information. That way you actually give MBD more promo without necessarily being overly repetitive.
