Thanks to our loyal readers! We’ve already gotten nearly 200 donations in the first 24 hours (out of our fundraiser target of 1000 donors), and blew past our first goal, which was $12,700 to provide for more technology investments in the site, which will provide for a better reader experience on mobiles and tablets, and faster resolution of other site issues.

Welcome to our 2014 fundraiser, the fourth in our eight-year history. Your donations are an important vote of confidence in our work. They tell us that you value Naked Capitalism as a place where we work together to expose the power dynamics that are radically reshaping our economy and society. And on a practical level, your contributions are critical to helping us steadily improve our content and your site experience.

We ask you to join us once again.

Fall is upon us, which means the NC annual fundraiser will be starting soon!

Readers contribute generously to this site in many ways, via sending links, antidotes, giving insights, information, and well crafted prose in our comments section, and last but not least, sending money. I hate to be forward about it, but an effort like this does entail the use of that crass commodity. If you believe in Naked Capitalism’s distinctive combination of serious analysis, prescient calls, and no-holds-barred commentary, we hope you’ll show your support via a contribution, either a one-time donation or a subscription.

We have an op-ed just published at Bloomberg, “How Your Pension Fund Became a Casino.” I hope you’ll read it pronto!

Naked Capitalism has recovered from the negative impact of a major Google algorithm in May and is back to traffic as usual.

Just to remind you: our meetup is 6:00 PM today at the Press Club. I’ll be there till at least 8:30 PM. Wolf Richter will be joining us, so I’m sure you’ll have fun meeting him as well. It looks like we’ll have a good, lively group.

Let us know if you are coming to our meetup in San Francisco so we can make a reservation!

Seeking reader input on possible venues for our meetup in San Francisco.

We are looking for a new person to take over WordPress support for Naked Capitalism. Any ideas or leads very much appreciated.

I’ll be in San Francisco at the end of July, on a family holiday of sorts. My brother will be running in the marathon, and his family (wife and daughters) will stay the week after. His mother in law and my mother will be in town then as well.

I’ll arrive Wednesday, July 30, in the early afternoon. The best day for a meetup would be that day, say starting at 5:30 PM or 6:00 PM. Please let me know how many might be game and suggest venues.

Don’t miss our conversation about private equity and the super secret TISA trade deal on Harry Shearer’s Le Show today.

Naked Capitalism is on the receiving end of a nasty bit of synchronicity.

I hope readers in New York will be able to join us at an informal gathering next Friday, April 25, from 5 PM to 8 PM.

We have a meetup set for April 25 but we need reader help with a venue.

One thing readers have asked for, and we’d like to implement if we can figure out how to do it, is a way to get to some of our best historical posts more accessible.
