    What are the best options to read stock news ?

    I would also prefer a site which lets you filter on new posts just like Reddit can.

    Maybe also a site which can filter on stocks you own.

    Advice to a college student who lost $2500 on one stock today

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 03:24 PM PST

    Hey guys,

    Yesterday I invested in DPW at $2.60 per share, thinking that it would follow the trend of bitcoin related stocks having success recently. Over the course of two days I've managed to nullify the smart investing gains I've made in my short investing career.

    First off, what do you guys suggest I do with DPW? Should I cut my losses or try to wait it out?

    Also, what are some tips/advice you have for a beginner investor like myself?

    Thanks guys!

    Aratana Therapeutics ($PETX) cancels stock offering after shares plunge -- wreaks of corruption

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 11:27 PM PST

    TL;DR: company announced stock offering yesterday AH when stock closed at $7.23 -> stock price closed 20% down today at $5.86 -> company cancels offering today at 7pm -> price recovers to $6.80 AH today. Seems extremely fishy to me; can't imagine this wasn't planned & corrupt.

    Aratana Therapeutics ($PETX) cancels stock offering after shares plunge

    Aratana announced a stock offering which featured an abnormal add-on to any stock offering announcement I've ever seen:

    The offering is subject to market conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed, or as to the actual size or terms of the offering

    This was announced AH yesterday at roughly 4pm. Stock price subsequently dropped 18.95% today, falling from $7.23 to $5.86.

    Then, the company announced at roughly 7pm today that they are cancelling the stock offering because "current market conditions are not conducive for an offering." Stock price then recovered about 10% to $6.80 AH today.

    I can't believe this is legal. Is it only legal because of their wording in the offering announcement? Or is this just a "that's why I don't buy shitty biotech companies" lesson? Has anyone seen something like this before?

    EDIT -- formatting

    Is there a website like Seeking Alpha for countries economies?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 10:23 PM PST

    Not specifically talking about currency but just where I can track a countries GDP and get updates on which countries are doing well economically, news related to economies, trade deals, and so on on the national level.

    Sorry if I am way out of place here.

    How to Choose the Right Brokerage(s)?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2017 12:02 AM PST

    Hi guys, recently a publicly traded company I held shares in went private so I've now got about $25-30K to invest in stock. I'd like to invest this sum in blue chip stock to hold long term.

    I've also got another $5K I'd like to use to learn more about trading.

    I've looked into the different brokerages available in the US (recently immigrated here) and am slightly overwhelmed with the number of choices out there. Other than the fees would any one be better than the other for what I hope to achieve or would I be better off using two brokerages (Schwab / Robinhood) for example?

    Any advice at all would be appreciated thanks!

    From where do brokerage houses get their end-of-day mutual fund prices?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 06:28 PM PST

    Mutual fund prices are determined around 5:30-6pm Eastern, and inserted into / distributed across the system in a short window thereafter. I can imagine a couple of viable alternatives:

    1. Since each mutual fund company has to "pay to play" on everyone else's platform, perhaps it's part of the contract that they "push" their EOD prices to each brokerage.
      • But, that would mean that Fidelity would have to talk to Vanguard (and everyone else), and Vanguard would have to talk to Schwab (and everyone else), etc; that could be a lot of cross-traffic.
    2. Perhaps there is ONE central (and trusted!) "depository" that every fund vendor, from American Funds to Western Assets, feeds their data to, and everyone else picks it up from there.
      • Sounds like something DTC could do, but I've never heard that that's one of their functions.

    So, anybody know the nitty-gritty details that make all that work?

    Daily advice thread. All questions about your personal situation should be asked here

    Posted: 29 Nov 2017 04:05 AM PST

    If your question is "I have $10,000, what do I do?" or anything similar. There is no single answer to this question, but we will also need A LOT MORE information if we are to give some sort of answer

    • How old are you?
    • Are you employed/making income? How much?
    • What are your objectives with this money? (buy a house? Retirement savings?)
    • What is your risk tolerance? (Do you mind risking it at blackjack or do you need to know its 100% safe?)
    • What are you current holdings? (Do you already have exposure to specific funds and sectors?)
    • Any other assets? House paid off? Cars? Expensive girlfriend? (not really an asset)
    • What is your time horizon? Do you need this money next month? Next 20yrs?
    • Any big debts?
    • Any other relevant financial information will be useful to give you a proper answer.

    Be aware that these answers are just opinions of Redditors and should be used as a starting point for your research. You should strongly consider seeing a registered financial rep before making any financial decisions!

    The Senate Tax Plan Sets a Trapdoor for MLPs and REITs investors would be taxed at 38.5 percent.

    The Senate Tax Plan Sets a Trapdoor for MLPs and REITs

    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-11-28/senate-tax-bill-sets-a-trapdoor-for-mlps

    The Senate bill pulls in the opposite direction.

    Corporate tax would still drop to 20 percent -- delayed by one year -- leaving an effective tax rate of 36 percent for C-Corp. dividends, similar to the House bill. MLPs and REITs wouldn't get that lower 25 percent rate, though. Instead, at the top marginal rate, income generated for their investors would be taxed at 38.5 percent.

    When do you plan on selling your AMZN?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 01:02 PM PST

    If ever.

    Yes, it's not possible to perfectly predict the future or time the market. So I'm curious what other heuristics you have for deciding when to sell single stock holdings. The best I've heard so far is "hold until the story isn't as good/appealing anymore", and, while I think it's a good principle, it's a bit ambiguous. So, how do you think about/evaluate it?

    IRA - Limited Margin & Options

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 05:51 PM PST

    Anyone trade options in their IRA? If so what brokerage do you use?

    Both Roth IRA and Traditional IRA are at Capital One Investments.

    My Roth contains solid companies with large moats. Dividends get reinvested. I'm content with this strategy for the Roth as it will eventually grow to produce a significant tax exempt dividend income stream. I won't have to sell the underlying investments, just distribute the income when it comes in.

    I've decided to transfer my Traditional to a different brokerage and get it coded for limited margin and options level 2 trading. I know that eventually the Traditional will eventually have to sell underlying assets, so I'm fine with higher turnover in the account. Together with the tax deferral makes short term gains less of a problem and way more bearable than a taxable brokerage as a significant amount of short term gains in taxable accounts are lost to taxes.

    Anyone who does this needs to make sure that they don't get flagged as a pattern day trader or the IRA will be required to have at least $25k net asset value.

    Any thoughts on this?

    What is the next "big thing" your circle of people are pushing you to invest in?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2017 11:30 PM PST

    I don't have many people to discuss investments and future ideas with. So I'm curious, what are you hearing about being the next, or next next big thing that should be looked at to invest in now?

    Tech? Marijuana? Crypto Currency? What's gaining popularity or is on the verge of?
