Dear Friends of MacroMicro,
As the year comes to a close, I’m thrilled we’ve spent another incredible year together. It has become a tradition for me to take this time to reflect and share the year’s highlights. Looking back, 2024 has been filled with exciting achievements and challenging moments alike. It’s hard to believe MacroMicro is already nine years old!
Expanding Horizons: From Macro to Micro
This year, we continued to enhance our platform with even more powerful macroeconomic analysis and functionality, introducing the super intuitive Cross-Country Database and the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election section. Our research team also consistently produced weekly podcasts and exclusive articles to help users make the most of the bull market in the first half of the year and prepare for heightened volatility in the second half.
Meanwhile, recognizing the importance of industry trends as market performance becomes increasingly divergent, we worked hard to launch the Industry Intelligence Hub, which consolidates crucial data for seven key industries (including semiconductors, automotive, PC, smartphones, and shipping) as well as exclusive indicators that leverage AI to analyze earnings reports to deliver unique market insights. What’s more, we’ll be adding essential financial data of another 5000 U.S. companies next year, further enhancing the hub as the one-stop resource for both top-down and bottom-up insights.
I still remember sitting in a cafe and coming up with the company name “MacroMicro,” which is inspired by combining “macroeconomics” and “microeconomics.” As we celebrate our ninth anniversary, I’m proud to see how far we’ve evolved from focusing on macroeconomics to encompassing industry-specific insights, gradually fulfilling the vision we set out to achieve. I often say MacroMicro is a data company, but this year a user shared with me that they thought MacroMicro is not selling data, but rather time. By transforming data into insights, we help significantly reduce the time it takes for people to make informed decisions. I couldn't agree more.
Pursuing Our Mission: Empowering Decision-Making for Everyone
As our research capabilities diversify, our mission has evolved too, from “empowering individuals to take charge of their investments with data” to “empowering everyone to take charge of their decisions through data.” Guided by user expectations, we’ve also begun collaborating with businesses, offering four key enterprise solutions: economic advisory services, custom dashboards, data licensing, and MM Business. This year, the number of companies we partnered with grew by 56%, doubling our revenue from enterprise clients! I believe collaborating with businesses is another great way to promote the importance of macroeconomics and data-driven thinking, as these collaborations help bring reliable data to broader audiences and amplify our impact.
Listening to Our Users
This year, we also implemented some subtle yet exciting upgrades to our platform:
New database search functionality providing a faster and smarter way for users to find the data they need;
Enhanced Toolbox to help users analyze market trends with greater accuracy;
AI-powered definitions making it easier for beginners to understand complex charts and terms; and of course the
Industry Intelligence Hub, a section that users have been asking for over the past two years, finally delivered!
All these improvements are inspired by your feedback. I truly understand trust is fundamental any subscription-based service. Users trust us to continue developing and delivering new features, and that’s why “user centric” has always been one of our five core values at MacroMicro. To embody this value, we’ve upgraded our user feedback tools and streamlined the feedback process. I also make it a priority for our customer service team to present user feedback at every major monthly meeting, ensuring your voices are heard and your trust is honored.
Again, thank you for every suggestion and piece of feedback. You’re helping MacroMicro grow and improve!
That wraps up my recap for the year. As we step into our tenth year, I’ll admit sometimes I still feel that we’re not moving fast enough (the classic entrepreneur mindset). But step by step, we’re making steady progress. With a team of colleagues I’m incredibly proud of, so many loyal users supporting us, and some ambitious but challenging goals to strive for, I’d say we’re in a great place. See you in year ten!
Cheers,
