Barron's is looking for a markets reporter to cover equities, fixed income, currencies, and commodities. This is a core reporting role at a publication where markets journalism isn't a beat—it's the backbone of everything we do.

You Have:

• Knowledgeable about equities, fixed income, currencies, and commodities, with the ability to translate complex market dynamics into clear, compelling journalism that serves both sophisticated investors and general readers
• Driven by strong news instincts and a feel for timing—knowing when a story needs to move fast and when it warrants deeper reporting

• Skilled at cultivating and maintaining sources across Wall Street, asset management, and corporate finance
• Comfortable working with data and collaborating with designers on charts and visualizations that sharpen a story's argument
• Energized by the pace of daily markets coverage while keeping longer-term stories in motion
