KYLA SCANLON Educator and founder

FOR BEING THE COOLEST ECON NERD ON THE INTERNET

- 

KYLA SCANLON HAS BEEN GLUED to her desk for the past hour, barely noticing the late-afternoon downpour out her window. TikTok’s algorithm rewards her for posting at 7 p.m. ET, which is why she’s toggling between her video editing software, her notes, and a dozen open browser tabs in order to create today’s post, which will join more than 400 others in her growing oeuvre. Energy markets, hedge funds, meme stocks— in the year and a half she’s been a creator, she has covered it all.
