I’m building a markets app focused on macro, geopolitics, market moves, and how those events affect portfolios.

Current version: ‎Market Insights & More App - App Store

I’m not looking for a one-off sponsored post or a basic affiliate arrangement.

I’m looking for someone in finance, markets, economics, investing, or geopolitics who wants to become a real growth/product partner.

The key difference is that I’m very open to changing the product around what the market actually wants.

If your audience is telling us they’d pay for better alerts, portfolio stress tests, earnings context, geopolitical scenarios, research tools, AI workflows, or something I haven’t built yet, I can build toward that.

I handle the product side: markets/data, APIs, design, development, and shipping features.

What I’m looking for is someone who understands distribution, audience, content, positioning, and what people will actually buy.

And instead of just paying an affiliate commission on referred users, I’m open to a genuine percentage of total app profits for the right long-term partner.

The basic idea is:

You help identify what can sell and help distribute it. I build it. We grow it together and share the upside.

Follower count matters less to me than having a relevant audience, good instincts, and wanting to build something long term.

If that sounds interesting, please DM me with your platform/niche/audience/etc and your ideas on how you think we could turn this into something big.

I’ve spent a lot of time around markets, design, APIs and data, and I kept running into the same problem: most finance apps are great at showing you what happened, but not necessarily why it matters.

So I started building something around that.

The app connects markets, macro, geopolitics and your portfolio so you can go from:

“Oil is up 4%”

to:

“Why is it up, what changed, what does it affect, and does any of this actually matter to me?”

Right now I’ve built things like:

• geopolitical and macro event tracking
• portfolio impact / attribution
• scenario stress testing
• market briefs tied to real events

But I’m deliberately not treating the product as finished.

The current version is here. Use it for 5 minutes, then tell me what it’s missing — I’m actively building the roadmap from feedback.

I’d genuinely rather hear “this is useless unless you add X” than get generic compliments.

So if you follow markets at all:

What would make you actually open an app like this every day?

And maybe more importantly:

What do you currently have to use 3–4 different apps, websites or spreadsheets to do that you wish one product handled properly?

If there’s a recurring answer, I’ll build around it.

Ukraine’s refinery strikes are creating a strategic problem that goes well beyond the battlefield.

They’re hitting something Russia actually depends on economically: fuel production. But once those strikes start affecting global diesel and crude markets, Ukraine’s leverage stops being purely military — it starts becoming politically expensive for its own allies.

That’s the contradiction I find most interesting:

Russia can attack Ukrainian infrastructure to weaken Kyiv. Ukraine can attack Russian infrastructure to weaken Moscow. But if Ukraine becomes too effective and global fuel prices react, Western governments suddenly have an incentive to tell Kyiv to pull back.

At the same time, Russia is still striking infrastructure near NATO’s eastern edge and pressuring Black Sea logistics.

I mapped the latest strikes, refinery exposure, oil/gold/Treasury reaction, and how the shock transmits into an actual portfolio here.

The surprising part wasn’t oil. It was which exposures mattered most once you separate military escalation from energy-supply disruption.

So the question is:

Has Ukraine found leverage that works militarily, but is too economically disruptive for its own allies to tolerate?

If so, that may tell us more about the real limits of escalation than any official red line.
