Akane Otani
Akane Otani, a markets reporter at The Wall Street Journal, has left the news organization after eight years.
She covered the intersection of markets, monetary policy and investing trends for the Journal since 2016. In 2022, she also began covering Berkshire Hathaway and Warren Buffett. Her reporting has spanned some of the most memorable moments on Wall Street in recent years, including the Federal Reserve’s big fight against inflation, the pandemic selloff of 2020, and the wild swings following the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
Otani regularly appears on podcasts, radio and national television to discuss her work. Her reporting on the meme stock mania of 2021 won the Gerald Loeb Award for breaking news, as well as the New York Press Club Award for national business reporting.
Otani is a graduate of Cornell University, where she studied English literature, and New York University’s Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute, where she earned a master’s degree in business journalism. Prior to joining the Journal, she was a business education reporter at Bloomberg Businessweek.
