Marketwatch.com names new columnist

Marketwatch.com editor in chief Glenn Hall sent out the following announcement:

I’m excited to announce that we are bringing on a new columnist with deep expertise in data analysis and investing strategies.
Philip van Doorn has a track record of delivering market-moving analysis as a senior analyst at TheStreet.com and TheStreet Ratings since 2007. Prior to transitioning to research and analysis and later journalism, Phil oversaw a $750 million mortgage portfolio at Riverside National Bank and served as a credit analyst at Federal Home Loan Bank of New York before that.
Phil will join us on March 31 and will report to our new commentary editor, Parris Kellermann. He will be be based in Jupiter, Florida.
I worked with Phil during my time at TheStreet and I can tell you that he crunches data like nobody’s business and he knows how to translate numbers into actionable analysis that impresses investing pros and still makes sense to the rest of us.
