The Vast Universe of Content Related to Data & Investing

Everyone asks me how I possibly could have discovered and profiled almost 24,000 data providers and also manage to keep tabs on them as they constantly release their own research, launch new products or announce partnerships. One, of many, pieces to that puzzle is to track as many RSS feeds relevant to the data or investing industries as possible. An RSS feed is a open sourced stream of content through the web that allows users to subscribe to updates from websites. For about a decade, I've been carefully collecting, curating and tagging RSS feeds that relate to the data and/or investing industries (and a few more for fun). In conjunction with this initial limited release of the higher priority feeds, I'm publishing the full metadatabase of 2,300+ feeds here and will be periodically updating it as new feeds are found and some are taken offline.

The Higher Priority News, Blogs, Podcasts & Video Feeds

Shown below are the 227 feeds I've decided have a high signal-noise ratio and thus I've deemed a high priority for us to closely monitor. Collectively, these content sources post 2,800+ stories per month. This amounts to about 10% of the total universe of RSS feeds and only about 2% of the total number of stories we're monitoring overall. But in our regular Amassed Insights series, you'll notice that the majority of the articles included come from this subset of higher priority feeds.

For each feed, I've included all the metadata necessary to easily upload these to your own RSS feed reader, such as Feedly (what I use). Using this blog as an example:
