Here is my personal list of interesting blogs about investing on the stock market. These are not purely investment blogs, but their authors rather focus on the overview of how the whole stock market works, wealth management and economics in general.
The websites on the following list are my favorite blogs about stock market investing. They consist valuable information on financial management, investments in different asset classes, modern financial markets, investor psychology, personal finance using data analysis, portfolio management, financial planning and asset management, etc.
These blogs truly are the best of the best when it comes to investing on the stock market! I hope you will like them too.
Oblivious Investor
This blog is dedicated to spreading the idea that investment success is based upon stubbornly following a few (very simple) principles: diversifying your portfolio, minimizing costs (such as brokerage commissions, mutual fund expenses, and taxes), and ignoring all the noise from the financial media about what the stock market does from day to day. In other words, if your portfolio is properly set up, it’s OK to be ‘oblivious’ to much of the financial media and most of the day-to-day happenings in the market.

A Wealth of Common Sense
A Wealth of Common Sense is a blog that focuses on wealth management, investments, financial markets and investor psychology. The main reason I started this website is to try to explain the complexities of the various aspects of finance in a way that everyone could understand them. Both the economy and the financial markets are complex adaptive systems, but I’ve never found complex problems require complex solutions. Common sense and self-awareness are extremely underrated attributes in the world of finance.

The Reformed Broker
The Reformed Broker began in November of 2008 and has become one of the most widely-read sites on the financial web. This blog is about markets, politics, economics, media, culture and finance. I’ll use statistics, satire, anecdotes, pop culture references, sarcasm, fact, fantasy and any other device that I feel necessary to get my points across. What I don’t do on this site is give financial advice or tell anyone what to invest in. The Reformed Broker is a forecast-free blog. What I will do on this site is provide you with a running commentary of my market-related insights and thoughts as events unfold. I’ll point you toward other interesting content around the web. I’ll challenge your perceptions, call it like I see it and occasionally, I’ll make you laugh.

Factor Investor
This blog is meant to be an ongoing interactive learning experiment. I hope you’ll check in periodically to offer opinions, advice, and feedback on my progress. I am a true believer in life-long learning. I find markets to be at some times an euphoric thrill ride and at others a slow moving train wreck. I’ve worked with sophisticated institutional investors for a decade. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend one of the best business schools in the world. I’ve studied hundreds of hours for the CFA exams. I’ve read dozens of books on investing, human behavior, and success. I’ve given what seems like hundreds of presentations to individuals, financial advisors, and plan sponsors.

❐ INTERESTING ARTICLES:
Calculated Risk
If you only follow one economics blog, it has to be Calculated Risk, run by Bill McBride. The site provides concise and very accessible summaries of all the key economic data and developments. One of the reasons McBride is able to do this so well is that he has an almost uncanny knack of recognizing which facts really matter. He began the blog in 2005 because he saw a disaster brewing in the form of the housing bubble, and tried his best to warn the rest of us of what was coming. I’ve followed him closely ever since, and I don’t know if he’s ever been wrong. My advice is, if you’ve come up with a different conclusion from McBride on how economic developments are going to unfold, you’d be wise to think it over again!

Millionaire Mob
I’m Millionaire Mob. I’m paid off nearly USD$60,000 of student loans in less than five years while also saving for my first house. I used SoFi to refinance my student loans, which freed up significant capital for me to pay down more debt AND save for a down payment. As a a former investment banker, you will be able to see that most of my posts are investing-oriented and might take on a bit more risk than others. I quit my job in investment banking to live a better life like starting a blog and traveling the world. By creating the Millionaire Mob blog, I’m able learn (…) But, most importantly, I’m able to pass along my expertise in finance along to others. I take a hybrid-approach to building net worth.
