Globes Subscribers Most Read About Personal Finance, Wealth, and Security
Globes' annual list of its 50 most-read articles by subscribers reveals a strong reader interest in personal finance, real estate, and wealth, alongside curiosity about prominent figures and national security.
Of the top articles, 26 focused on markets, real estate, vehicles, taxes, and personal finance, addressing common concerns such as investment performance, housing prices, and end-of-month or end-of-career financial outcomes. The most popular article featured an interview with a billionaire who was placing billboards against Tzvi Naveh, highlighting a broader reader fascination with the lives and fortunes of the wealthy, entrepreneurs, and business families.
Beyond financial topics, security industries and geopolitics garnered significant attention, particularly articles detailing the technology behind lasers, missiles, and fighter jets. The list also included pieces on Israelis returning from abroad, research into aging, and even advice on optimal wake-up times, indicating a diverse range of reader interests.
Reader engagement peaked between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM, with a secondary surge between 9:00 PM and 10:00 PM. The busiest day on the Globes website in the Hebrew year 5786 (2025-2026) was March 1, 2026, coinciding with the start of Iran's war. Notably, articles focusing on people, despite lower view counts, accounted for a quarter of the total reading time, underscoring their significant impact.
The publication also saw success with new sections aimed at younger investors and those planning for retirement, demonstrating a continued need for guidance across all life stages, from initial investments to pension planning.
