Three plain directions

Every one of these obeys the rule in your brief: no template, nothing fancy, plain beats polished. They differ only in how much structure sits under the plainness. Direction 1 is Berkshire Hathaway. Direction 3 is Hussman. Direction 2 is the middle, and it is the one I would ship.

Read the frames as screenshots. Each white panel is a picture of the actual page at desktop width, using your approved description copy, your real pricing, and live futures data pulled this morning. Nothing here is placeholder text.
01 Bare berkshirehathaway.com · dogsofthedow.com

No stylesheet at all. Times New Roman, blue links, black rules. The page is credible precisely because nobody spent a minute on it. This is the most extreme reading of your brief, and it is a real position, not a joke.

What it buys

Impossible to mistake for a template. Cheapest and fastest thing to build. Loads instantly on any phone, any connection. Nothing to maintain, ever.

What it costs

A 2026 reader can misread indifference as abandonment. There is no hierarchy to hold an archive once you have sixty posts. And it makes $1,200 a year a harder sentence to say out loud.

02 Publication mcoscillator.com · grantspub.com · adenforecast.com

A newsletter with a back catalogue. One serif, a double rule under the masthead, dated entries, small uppercase labels doing the sorting. Everything a 1978 subscription letter had and nothing it did not.

19% off the high and still 33% above the low. Where the fence sits now.

26 August 2026 Russell 2000: the level that invalidates the whole idea

Defined risk, stated before entry. Educational only.

Market Research

19 August 2026 Why win rate is the wrong question

Asymmetry, not accuracy. The arithmetic behind the process.

What it buys

Reads as a publication with history, which is what justifies a subscription. The dated archive sells for you: a year of entries is proof no landing page can fake. Still zero template smell.

What it costs

The dated list is honest in both directions. Post twice in a month and the gaps are the first thing a prospective subscriber sees.

03 Research House hussmanfunds.com · yardeni.com

Still plain, but organised like a firm rather than a letter. A disciplined measure, sectioned index, and somewhere for the data tables to live. This is the direction that carries the $1,200 annual without ever mentioning value.

What it buys

Holds hundreds of posts without turning into a wall. The data tables have somewhere to sit. Reads as a firm, which is the register that supports the annual price.

What it costs

The most build time of the three, and the closest to the line where considered starts reading as marketed. Cross that line and the whole positioning breaks.

What I need from you

Pick a number. Then answer the questions in the email, especially the three about cadence, Discord access, and whether a trade idea is a recommendation. Those three change what gets built, not just how it looks.

  1. Direction. 01, 02, or 03. Or say which parts of each you want combined.
  2. The masthead line. Direction 02 says "published since 2024." Is that the right year?
  3. The data section. Direction 03 shows the futures table on the public page. Should that be public, or behind the paywall?
