Abstract
Alfred Cowles III hailed from an established Chicago publishing family, his father and uncle having founded the Chicago Tribune and Cleveland Leader, respectively (Grier, 2013). For a short time after WWI Cowles successfully ran a Chicago investment firm that acquired and restructured small railroads. His firm also published a stock market newsletter providing fundamental analysis and recommendations on railroad stock issues as well as other investments, and for a time there was even an Alfred Cowles Railroad.
