Rising on Substack this week: Business

Two signals nobody else shows: the writers picking up new recommendations from other publications, and the ones climbing the leaderboards between my reads. Follower growth joins them on Nov 7, once there's a week of daily readings.

New recommenders per week, last 12 weeks; the orange bar is this week to date. Same scale in every panel. Dated by Substack; only recommendations still live. Outlined weeks are incomplete: Substack lists only a publication's 50 newest recommenders, so for busy writers older weeks can't be counted, and a 30-day count marked + is a floor.
