About Stump the Street

Stump the Street is a free email newsletter, with a companion website, dedicated to money, markets, and investing history � Wall Street lore, famous fortunes and crashes, financial jargon, and the stories behind the money. Educational trivia only, never financial advice or predictions.. Every issue is written to be worth your time — clear, useful, and genuinely interesting — and it lands in your inbox on a regular schedule.

Our goal is simple: give you something you're glad you read, every single time, without the noise. Each issue is also published here on the web so you can read, revisit, and share it.

Stump the Street is published by Mediadealer. We're a small, independent operation — no giant media company, no clickbait quotas — just a focused publication built for the people who read it.

Questions, corrections, and advertising enquiries all reach a real person at c023y.l3w15@gmail.com.

Every article is researched, drafted with the help of AI tools, edited by a person, and checked against everything we've already published so we never run the same story twice. Articles link to their sources, and those links are verified before an issue goes out.

We've written the whole process down — including how we use AI and how to tell us we got something wrong — on our editorial standards page.

Subscribing is free and takes a few seconds — you'll get each new issue by email, and you can unsubscribe anytime with one click. Prefer to browse? Every past issue lives in our archive.
