Just The Markets

About Just The Markets

Trading and investing education that starts from what is on your screen: the quote page, the screener, the filing, the option chain, the earnings calendar.

What it covers

Each subject has its own topic page: stock trading, swing trading, options, prop trading, dividends, earnings, investing and economics.

A viewpoint takes one position, works a hypothetical company or position through the numbers, and says where the argument stops holding. Each dictionary entry defines a single term, gives its formula where it has one and names the screen you will meet it on. The walkthroughs take one practical question each and put the short answer at the top. The free courses teach portfolios, market cycles, options spreads, earnings, sector rotation, valuation, macro signals and strategy testing lesson by lesson, and the quizzes and games turn market situations into decisions that are marked on the reasoning.

The calculators run the sums behind a share offering, a buyback, a concentrated portfolio, an earnings gap, a run of volatile returns, a dividend cut, averaging down and a losing streak.

Who publishes it

Just The Markets is published by FinPubMax Media LLC, and pages carry the site's name. Each one is drafted with AI assistance and checked by a named human editor, John James, John Todora, Lovely Oryza or Beth Rue, before it goes live. The credit at the top of every article names that editor, and how we use AI explains what the check covers.

How a page is put together

A page starts as a plan: the question readers search for, the points the answer has to cover, the published rules it may state and who sets them, the worked example with its sums checked, and the pages it should link to. A draft is written to that plan and to the house rules, then run through a script that fails it for dashes, first-person anecdotes, flat sentence rhythm and phrasing repeated from another page. The editor then goes through the arithmetic and the rules.

Worked examples use hypothetical companies, portfolios and positions with round numbers, so you can repeat the steps with a real quote page, a real filing or your own brokerage statement.

What it is not

Everything here is education, and none of it is investment, tax or legal advice. No page recommends a security, a broker or a prop firm, and no page knows your finances. Read the risk disclaimer before acting on anything.
