The long read

Quarterly Market Recap

Four times a year, the recap team turns twelve weeks of desk coverage into one piece that says what actually happened — and what connected it.

First recap · Autumn 2026 The first Quarterly Market Recap covers the twelve publishing weeks from 5 October to 21 December 2026. It is written from the desks' own notes, so the weekly coverage is the place to start.

The team

Wide, not deep.

Weekly analysts go deep on a few names. The recap team goes wide and looks for what connects them — the three or four threads that ran through a whole quarter of notes.

Built from the notes

The recap starts from what the desks published, not from a blank page. Every theme it names should be traceable to specific weekly notes.

Around 2,000 words

Long enough to connect eleven sectors, short enough to be read in one sitting. Structure: what happened, the three to four threads that ran through it, what to watch next quarter.

Still plain English

The same rule as every note: someone outside finance should be able to read it start to finish. Every specialist term goes to Decoded.
