Welcome To Deal Flow | World Of Big Buyouts, Acquisitions, IPOs And Finance

Kevin Dowd
Staff Writer
I’m Kevin Dowd, and this is Deal Flow, a new daily newsletter from Forbes tracking all the latest twists, turns, triumphs and travails from the realm of private equity, M&A and beyond. Welcome aboard.

I hope this newsletter will be a one-stop shop for all the dealmaking information and analysis you desire. It will cover the who, what, when and where of all the biggest transactions. It will also cover the why and the how, exploring the context, history and forward-looking implications of these market-shifting moves.

And if I do my job correctly, it will cover all that ground in a clear, entertaining, digestible way. Writing about this stuff is fun, whether the topic is Tesla, a $13 billion SPAC mega-deal, nuclear fusion, a female founder in private equity or the rise and fall of Blue Apron. Reading about it should be fun, too.

Daily editions of Deal Flow will show up in your inbox every Monday through Thursday, with a weekly recap to follow on Sunday mornings. I’m excited to get going—and even more excited to have you as a reader.
