what colleagues, acquaintances old and new, random ppl are up to
even the price of grass-fed milk in the grocery store because inflation data point lol
it's like that adage of youtube that says a few hundred hours of video are uploaded there per MINUTE, constantly, so even if you constantly watch the best content (non-negligible search time notwithstanding), you're still 'lagging' given the constant never-ending stream of content...but that said most of the youtube content is not relevant/ helpful to most people so the search bar quickly filters out stuff
with news flow, articles, etc, especially the info streams per above, however, esp. when it's constantly of the BREAKING NEWS variety, even the time it takes to skim/ scan something adds up, as you have to constantly pause, scan, quickly analyze/ figure out whether it's rubbish vs. not so relevant vs. potentially relevant at some point in the future and thus deserves a cursory read if there's time vs. to read and store for short term vs. to read multiple times/ take notes for long term
& to do that constantly for all the info streams takes effort, and lots of mental focus to not get side tracked too
so how do y'all stay on top of everything all the time, preferably while staying mentally sharp, so that you can act/ make the best decisions after you've acquired all the best up-to-date info?
my solution so far has been STRONG coffee, lol & jotting things down on paper which helps refine my thoughts
also what other info sources have you found to be particularly helpful for added data streams/ insights on the markets?
