Point Focal has been wound up. @thomasdadmun shares learnings, gratitude, and what matters. Deep and sincere thanks to all our supporters.
The One Thing, A Windup Breakdown

Introducing Market Behavior. New information for asset managers that helps explain price activity. A way to understand and improve trade strategy.
Proudly partnered with @EdgeStructure. Market Behavior Risk Signals is now available for institutions.
Our founder @thomasdadmun recapped the #allinsummit '23. "Easily the most idea-generating event I've attended". Thanks @theallinpod: @Jason, @chamath, @DavidSacks, @friedberg.
I wrote "Going All-In" to understand my trip to the @theallinpod Summit. It starts at the end: talking to @stephen_wolfram while listening to @Grimezsz. It ends with friends.
Themes spanning talks from @RayDalio, @JenniferJust8, Stephen Wolfram, @elonmusk, @LHSummers, and @MrBeast included humility about uncertainty, the middle, and demand & supply.
Easily the most idea-generating event I've attended. Thanks @Jason, @chamath, @DavidSacks, and @friedberg.

My latest Signals episode covers packaging products through the lens of scarcity and abundance, the importance of data moats, and what we can learn from Taylor Swift.
Inspired by a @TDCowen AI dinner hosted by Erica Yoon where I presented alongside @JimTousignant and @GunnerBrown. Data moats emerged as the lynchpin for financial firms leveraging AI, LLMs and alt-data.
Also inspired by @benthompson coverage of the Eras tour on @sharptechpod, obviously.
Enjoy and subscribe for free to get irregular updates.

From $TSLA's '22 Impact Report:
"As the world needs to strive for a substantial positive impact, we won’t be referring to ESG. Instead, we’ll talk about Impact."
From @util_co's Week In Impact. And why we call our Util content Impact Analytics.

New Signals piece from @thomasdadmun "Sentiment Ebb & Short Volume Flow" explains how market structure sentiment captures this cycle:
Securities laws -> incentives -> market participant behavior -> stock prices.

Interesting move in S&P 500 off-exchange volume Friday.
Largest recent 1-day move from lit-to-dark venues (+6%) and highest percent traded off-exchange in 3-monhts (37%).

- Statements about company purpose or ethics are PR.
- PR is an unreliable proxy for ESG-as-risk and ESG-as-impact.
From @util_co's latest Week In Impact. It matters whether your ESG ratings are informed or misinformed.
