A Wealth of Common Sense

Investing and markets, explained with historical perspective.

Newsletter Investing Weekly Updated Sep 2026

About

A Wealth of Common Sense, written by portfolio manager Ben Carlson, covers investing and market history with a persistent emphasis on the difference between what feels smart in the moment and what actually works over decades.

Its newsletter leans on historical market data to push back on prediction-heavy financial media, a useful corrective for readers who've absorbed too much short-term market commentary elsewhere.
