Most macro analysis is either free and shallow, or institutional and out of reach. David Woo Unbound sits in a different category entirely — here's how we compare:
| Source | Annual Cost | Access Level |
|---|---|---|
| Bloomberg Terminal | ~$27,000 | Institutional only |
| Institutional Research Desk | $10,000+ | Accredited only |
| Seeking Alpha Premium | ~$240 | Retail, crowdsourced |
| Free Substack / Twitter | $0 | No accountability |
| David Woo Unbound (Gold) | $150 | Institutional quality |
The same analysis that moves institutional money — delivered to your inbox for $12.50/month.
Macro research is not a commodity. Here's what makes some services worth it — and why others fall short.
Decades of institutional experience. Real money invested in the same picks shared with subscribers. Two PhD economists collaborating. Proprietary quantitative models. Independent thinking unconstrained by compliance or advertiser pressure.
David spent 20+ years at the highest levels of Wall Street strategy — the kind of role where a single call moves billions. John holds a mathematics degree from MIT. This caliber of analysis has never been available at retail prices before.
Free and cheap services typically have no track record, no accountability, no skin in the game. They often repurpose mainstream news rather than providing independent analysis. You get what you pay for.
Our mission is democratizing institutional analysis. We run a digital-first model without the overhead of a traditional research desk and pass those savings to you. $150/year is a deliberate choice — this should be accessible to any serious investor.
Unlike most research services, we manage an actual portfolio using our own recommendations — so you can track our performance in real time. Our goal: beat the S&P 500 by 5 percentage points annually, without excessive risk.
One informed decision can pay for years of membership. One avoidable mistake — one trade made without the right macro context — costs multiples more than $150. We won't promise you'll get rich. We will promise you'll be better informed than 99% of retail investors.
This service is not for everyone. If you're a passive index investor who never wants to think about markets, there's no need to subscribe.
But if you're serious about understanding why markets move — not just what happened, but the macro forces driving it — and you want to invest with an edge, David Woo Unbound is built for you.
Who subscribes: Individual investors, family offices, finance professionals, entrepreneurs, and anyone who wants to think about their portfolio the way institutions do.

Formerly Head of Global Interest Rates and former senior Wall Street strategist, David built his reputation by challenging consensus thinking — calling Trump's 2016 election, the post-COVID rebound, and major macro inflection points before they happened.
One of the most respected macro strategists on Wall Street, today he brings that same independent, data-driven analysis directly to retail investors — free from institutional bias, groupthink, and agendas.
He is joined by John Hopkinson, PhD, a mathematician trained at MIT, who translates David's macro vision into precise, actionable trading strategy — complete with stock selections, targets, and stop levels published every week.
