Method
Every brief is built the same way, and it only goes up when it's ready. Here's what "ready" means.
- 01
Start from the sources
We read the primary material — the filings, the disclosures, the official numbers — and build the argument up from there, rather than down from someone else's take. Every claim that carries weight gets a link, so you never have to take our word for it.
- 02
Argue with it
Then the draft gets a hostile read: where is the reasoning thin, what's being compared that shouldn't be, what's asserted without enough behind it? Anything that can't survive the challenge is cut or qualified. What gets published is what's left standing.
- 03
Only if it clears the bar
Finally it runs through a check for the basics — is the piece complete, properly sourced, and internally consistent? If it doesn't pass, it doesn't go up. There's no exception for a piece we happen to like.
Why everything is sourced
A claim you can't check is just an opinion with confidence behind it. So the load-bearing statements are linked straight to the primary document behind them — you can open the source, read it in context, and decide for yourself whether we read it right.
Why it's built to last
Each brief is filed into a growing library, so later work builds on what came before instead of starting from a blank page. These are meant to be returned to, not read once and forgotten.
