XarQuid | Which newspaper or periodical is the best source of investor information (daily or weekly)? |
I am looking to choose between Wall Street Journal, Investors Business Daily, or Barron's Weekly. Or perhaps even a combination of two. And if you know something other than these, feel free to mention it.
I just wanted opinions from Yahoo! Answerers...when it comes to investing and stock market knowledge and a good choice of a periodical.
I am looking for pros and cons of each periodical as well as opinions as to which someone in my demographic might enjoy:
25 y/o, investing for 2 - 3 years, liberal, etc.
I do understand that the referenced publications tend to be "right wing" when it comes to their politicking, which is fine. I do not mind this -- I am mainly looking for a great periodical for its (or their) information/articles. I understand how the economy is influenced by other factors...
With this being said -- what do you recommend? Why or why not?
I currently also subscribe to: Forbes, Fortune, Inc., Smart Money, Wired, eWeek, and The New Yorker and enjoy all of these. Additional Details ---> I also receive The Economist. Sorry, this is important.
I am mainly looking for a daily periodical. ;-) Barron's is weekly (but, still, I guess it is worth mentioning in the title because so many people recommend it online -- on Amazon.com at least).
1) I just did not see the main differences between Barron's, WSJ and IBD by reading through Amazon.com's reviews and descriptions.
That's the main reason I came here and asked/posed the question.
2) A lot of you are recommending New York Times. Do you really think it is a substitute to Wall Street Journal, Investors Business Daily or Barron's for investment information? |

Personally, I would get Barron's because I normally only have time to read and plan my trades on the weekends. IBD seems to like trends in the market versus how the company is doing. |

I would recommend the Wall Street Journal - because what you want is what companies are doing, not stock tips - which is what the other magazines give you.
WSJ tells you what companies are doing, who's new to companies, and this can allow you to draw your own conclusions on new industries before they're tagged as "hot" by investment magazines (when most of the gains have already been taken). |

so you are greedy like a repubican, but have self-guilt and want to be 'cool' like a liberal? okay, i get it. just dont tell your firends, right?
yeah, IBD, WSJ are pretty good to start with. |

I prefer the WSJ. As a liberal like you, I often choose to expose myself to the "left" media, which like the media of any political ideology, may be biased. Murdoch's WSJ serves as a balancing counterpoint which is better indicative of the general investor. If you don't have much time, just the ten minutes reading the daily World News and Business columns on the front page will make you more literate of world affairs than perhaps 90% of Americans. |

I would always recommend the WSJ everytime . . . Over the long run. |

I have been in global investment management for decades. My two most favorite reads are:
The Economist
The Financial Times |

The Journal's right-wing stance is primarily on the editorial page, which shouldn't effect its news and business coverage.
The other periodicals you subscribe to are good as well. I'm not familiar with IBD or Barron's enough to recommend or not. The Economist is supposed to be excellent.
Avoid CNBC. If you're investing for the long haul, it's not a good choice. If you're a day trader, that's something else. I've met with mutual fund managers who laugh at CNBC. |

WSJ is nice for entertainment. If you want real investment knowledge nothing is better than Investor Business Daily. A subscription gives you access to their web site that is packed with great info and charts.
I love it. |
