We’re now a family of 60,000+ readers on Aftermarket Report
Hi folks! I’m Meher. I make sure the Aftermarket Report goes live every evening in your inbox, along with my colleagues Nithin, Samdarsh, and Shruthi.
We touched 60,000 subscribers a couple of days ago, and I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to every single one of you! When we started this, we had zero clue that it would be something people would even like, but it seems like we’ve been proven wrong. The other reason this comes as a big surprise is that we’ve done an extremely bad job at talking about this initiative.
The whole idea behind doing this was simple: there wasn’t a single place where a trader or an active investor could get a rundown of what happened in the markets on a given day, without a paywall, with zero ads, or any other gimmicks.
Every evening after the markets close, we send you a quick summary of what happened: how the indices moved, which sectors led or lagged, the top gainers and losers, what happened in global markets, and a few other data points we think are worth tracking. No opinions, no hot takes, just a clean rundown of the day.
Over time, we kept adding more data points that we thought might be helpful, trying to make this more informative without making it cluttered. The idea is to help you understand not just what happened but why it mattered, with deeper context from our other work, like The Chatter, where we dig into what company managements are really saying, and In the Money, where we try to make sense of trading without the hype and clickbait.
That said, there are a bunch of things we could do to make this better. If you’re an active reader, I know you’ll have thoughts, so please let us know: How can we make this better? Is there anything we should add to the Aftermarket Report? Is there anything we should cut? Drop a comment below or reply to this email.
Again, thank you so much for subscribing. We read each and every comment, so keep the love and the feedback coming. And if you know someone who follows the markets, please share this with them 🙂
Thanks Meher & the Aftermarket team (Nithin, Samdarsh and Shruthi) at Zerodha, you guys are doing a fantastic job.
I have been active in the market for at-least last 15/20 years and I totally agree to what you said "there wasn’t a single place where a trader or an active investor could get a rundown of what happened in the markets on a given day, without a paywall, with zero ads, or any other gimmicks".
Ever since I first read your Aftermarket report (about 6/7 months back), I have been hooked to it, It has become a ritual to read it every single evening.
You guys have now topped it up (in the recent past) with a few more data points + more charts/graphics + some layout changes.
1 suggestion though : in the Commodities section, it will be helpful if the price of Crude Oil is shown in USD (that is how it is referred to on every other site or media channels) rather than rupees per barrel
All-in-all your report makes so much sense to an active trader like me or someone who wants to follow the market on a daily basis.
Appreciate your hard work and thanks to team Zerodha for being the best in the industry, it takes a lot of effort and commitment to be there.
Very nice
