mi guide to the markets uk
“A best-in-class market reference atlas with consistent grammar and rich callouts, but as a Storymakers exemplar it is the opposite of one — use it to teach exhibit hygiene and footnote discipline, never to teach narrative, action titles, or how to land a recommendation.”
↓ Zero executive summary or thesis page in the first 10 slides — the reader has no idea what JPM thinks before slide 50

narrative
guide to the markets asia
“A best-in-class market reference book judged against its own genre, but a near-zero Storymakers exemplar — use it to teach how reference decks differ from narrative decks, never as a model for action titles, SCQA, or pillar structure.”
↓ Zero action titles across 92 pages — every header is a topic label, forcing the reader to interpret each chart unaided

Second Quarter 2024 Results
“A standard investor-relations earnings deck — competent as an IR document but a weak Storymakers exemplar: use it only as a negative example of topic-label titling and appendix-as-ending, not as a structural model.”
↓ No thesis slide anywhere — reader must assemble the quarter's story from raw tables (p.4–13)

Second Quarter 2023 Results
“This is an earnings-disclosure deck, not a consulting argument — topic-label titles, no SCQA arc, and a closing half built entirely of reconciliation tables; useful as a counter-example of what Storymakers principles are designed to replace, not as an exemplar.”
↓ Zero action titles across 25 pages — 'Non-GAAP P&L', 'Research Metrics', 'Capital Structure and Allocation' are all category labels that force the reader to mine the chart for the point

20230316 scff portfolio details
“A portfolio-disclosure reference document masquerading as a deck — useful as a counter-example of topic-label titles and missing narrative, not as a Storymakers exemplar.”
↓ Titles are 100% legal-entity labels rather than action titles — slides 3-12 all repeat variants of the fund name with no insight

Review of efficiency of the operation of the federal courts
“This is an educational primer on how the U.S. federal courts work — not a consulting argument — and serves as a counter-example for Storymakers, useful only to illustrate what happens when a deck has topic labels but no thesis, analysis, or recommendation.”
↓ Action titles carry zero insight — every slide title is a noun phrase (e.g. p.10 'THE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL COURTS', p.23 'The Appeals Process'); a reader skimming titles learns nothing.
