The Market Brief Daily is a one-analyst publication: institutional-grade macro and market-structure research, model portfolios, and a systematic quant terminal, all documented transparently and free of marketing spin.
I am Karlo Weeks, an analyst focused on macro transmission, market structure, and systematic strategy. I hold an MSc in Financial Analysis and Fund Management from the University of Exeter (Distinction), am a CFA Level 1 candidate, completed an applied-research project with J.P. Morgan, and ran a mandate-driven sleeve of a student investment fund. The Market Brief Daily is where that training is put to work in public.
Every brief reads markets through three frames: macro transmission (how policy and liquidity propagate into risk assets), market structure (where the marginal trade actually clears), and physical supply (when paper and physical prices diverge). The same discipline drives the model portfolios and the quant research, so the analysis, the allocations, and the code all line up.
A daily macro brief, four publicly tracked model portfolios, a gated systematic quant terminal (the v5c flagship plus strategies in development), and a free finance-education library. No paid promotions, no allocation kickbacks, and corrections published openly. Educational research, not investment advice.
Macro, credit, commodities and microstructure, written for serious readers.
Classic, Classic ESG, Tracker and Rotational, tracked against honest benchmarks.
The v5c systematic strategy with live signal, backtest, risk and a portfolio tracker.
Seven chapters from markets and instruments to UK tax wrappers and the CFA syllabus.
Free covers the daily brief and the education library. Professional adds the full archive, the model-portfolio detail, and the quant terminal. Institutional adds direct analyst access.
