Capital Gains is an educational newsletter spun out of The Diff: a deeply analytical newsletter that applies concepts in finance, economics, and corporate strategy.
The problem is that those concepts aren’t taught in school, so the analysis tends to appeal to founders, VCs, hedge fund managers, and the like.
Whether you’re on a finance career track, trying to understand what your company’s stock options package means, or just curious about how the economy works, Capital Gains gives you the mental models you need.
