Business
I cover businesses that live close to the real economy—industrial firms, trade-linked names, and the companies that feel costs and demand in a very direct way. I’m drawn to how scale is built under pressure. In my writing, I focus on mechanisms: pricing power, supply constraints, financing, and what all that means for resilience when conditions tighten. Less hype, more process.
