The calendar is public. The setups it creates are not. Every Sunday we map the week's dated events onto the trades they actually favor — so Monday morning you're executing a plan instead of reacting to a headline.
Free. Lands Sunday evening, before futures open.
The idea
Most retail investors meet the week on Monday at 9:30, already behind it. Institutions meet it on Sunday, at a desk, with a list. The Week Ahead is that list — the events, the setups they create, and the single number that decides whether the week's dominant trade keeps working.
THE CALENDAR
Prints, decisions, earnings, and mechanical flows — filtered down to the handful with real power to move how you're positioned. The rest is noise with a timestamp.
THE SETUPS
Each event mapped to the theme it feeds and the structure that expresses it — a pair, a spread, a basket, or a reason to hold cash through it.
THE NUMBER
One data point, level, or spread we're watching above everything else — stated up front, so you can check it yourself on Thursday and know where we stand.
How the week runs
The Week Ahead isn't a standalone email. It's the spine the next five issues hang off.
Calendar, setups, and the number that matters. You end Sunday knowing what you're watching and why.
The week's anchor names, built directly off Sunday's catalysts. Levels that matter, and what would make each one actionable.
One thesis built end to end, then a look at what real capital is doing — filings, insider buying, and where the flow disagrees with the story.
What the week's prints actually meant once the headline noise cleared, and how the cross-asset picture sets up the week after.
Inside a typical issue
Straight talk
Not a forecast. We don't predict where the S&P closes Friday. We map which outcomes favor which positioning, then tell you what would flip our read.
Not a homework assignment. Five minutes Sunday night. Skim the calendar, read the one setup that touches something you own, close the tab.
Not for day traders. This is weekly and multi-week positioning. If you're scalping five-minute bars, we're the wrong desk.
