Everything moving the market — and your stocks —
in one five-minute brief.

Before the bell and after the close: what happened, why it matters, and what to watch — Fed speakers, inflation prints, earnings on deck — personalized to the portfolio you actually own. Stop reading ten sources and still missing the one thing that mattered.

How It Works

  1. Step 01
    Add your tickers + thesis
    Tell us what you own and why. 30 seconds. No brokerage connection — manual entry only. Your holdings are encrypted and never shared.
  2. Step 02
    Get your brief twice daily
    Before the bell and after the close, your personalized market brief lands in your inbox — customized to the modules you care about.
  3. Step 03
    Revisit your reasoning weekly
    A Sunday thesis check-in pulls you back into your journal. Track what changed, log a new thesis, build a decision track record.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this financial advice?▼
No. The Why Markets provides market context and portfolio analysis for informational purposes. We help you understand what happened and why — we never tell you what to buy or sell.
Do I need to connect my brokerage?▼
No. You manually enter your tickers. We never access your brokerage account, and we never see your actual balances or trade history.
What happens after my free trial?▼
Free plan stays free forever — no card needed. The 7-day Pro trial captures a card at signup; you're charged on day 8 only if you don't cancel before then. Cancel any time in Settings.
Where does the data come from?▼
Real-time and delayed market data from Polygon.io and Finnhub. Sector classifications follow the GICS standard. Briefs refresh daily before the bell and after the close.
Can I cancel anytime?▼
Yes. Cancel with one click from your account settings. No questions, no hoops.
How is this different from Morning Brew or ChatGPT?▼
Those give you generic market news. The Why Markets connects every insight to YOUR specific holdings, YOUR concentration risk, and YOUR investment thesis.
