Haymaker Announcement

Well, Haymaker readers, the day is nearly here. We’ve alluded to it in months past and have been making specific arrangements for it over the last few weeks.

We are going paid, and hope you will continue on this journey with us.

We will begin paywalling* new content as of this Friday, August 4th. However, in the spirit of continuing to provide free material, we’ll allow gratis access to the “Charts of the Week”, the commentary attached to those, and roughly the first half of our Making Hay Monday editions. However, our detailed investment guidance (now issued each Friday), and full MHM editions, will be available only to paying subscribers.

From a logistical standpoint, sustaining the Haymaker project will mean generating revenue from those who see value in our content and would like to keep seeing it as a regular presence in their inboxes. With respect to pricing, our rate of $40/month (or the discounted rate of $400 upfront for one year) is reflective of the time, research, and resources necessary for us to bring you information-dense, market-pertinent, and consistently actionable newsletters on a weekly basis. We also offer a Founding Member option at a rate of $800/year which will entail special Haymaker engagement privileges on at least a monthly basis.

Believe us, this has been a very costly undertaking for the Haymaker himself since our initial launch last year. Your generous support will allow us to continue providing you with informative investment commentary. We hope our work thus far has conveyed to you, our readers, that Haymaker content is worth a modest investment.

Thank you all!

-The Haymaker Team

*Current Evergreen clients who would like to continue or start enjoying free access to Haymaker content can contact their Wealth Consultant with the request, which we will happily honor.
