    Goldman Sachs Will Take $5 Billion Q4 Earnings Hit Following U.S. Tax Overhaul

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 06:55 AM PST

    Goldman said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing that most of the charge -- around two thirds -- will be linked to the repatriation of cash held in some of its overseas divisions while "the remainder includes the effects of the implementation of the territorial tax system and the remeasurement of U.S. deferred tax assets at lower enacted corporate tax rates."

    Your first $1000 - How do you invest it?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 12:53 PM PST

    So I see this question being asked A LOT, so I thought this would be a good discussion to have among the community. I have this in video format here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlcS3qTKaWE) if you don't want to read this block of text...

    Anyways, I personally would break it down into 3 categories depending on your risk tolerance.

    1) Low Risk - this would mean that you would invest all of your money in ETFs/Index funds. I would personally allocate it like this: 60% S&P500, 20% Canada, 15% Europe, 5% Emerging Markets. The reason I have Canada in there is because I'm Canadian and believe the economy is pretty stable. If you are american, I would still recommend some exposure to Canada, but you can maybe reduce it down to 10% and allocate another 5% to europe and S&P500.

    2) Medium Risk - Mixture of Index Funds/ETFs and some Safe stock picks. 30% in S&P500, 10% in Canada, 10% in Emerging Markets. The reason I don't have Europe here is because out of all the markets, I believe they are the least likely to provide good growth in my portfolio, so what I did was put a little more into Emerging Markets in this case. The stock picks would be 25%, 15%, 10% - and I would personally pick stocks from the DOW30 here and order them from the one you most believe in, to least.

    3) High Risk - Majority in stock picks, with a small position in Index funds. I would allocate 10% here to the S&P500 for some stability and diversity. Then, I would go look for 3 companies that are financially stable, have a good track record, has at least 10B in market cap (so it isn't easily manipulated), and is still a growth stock. So the stocks would be broken down from 40%/30%/20%. Ideally, pick stocks in different sectors to diversify - so my 3 companies could look like this: WYNN/BABA/DPZ. The idea here is you want companies that will provide good upside in the next few years, but also have stability if the market starts to correct. I realize WYNN would be a bit risky here since in a recession, casino stocks get hit hard, but this is just an example!

    Anyways, so I hope this helps any beginners out there looking to invest their first $1000. Now, there's a lot of different ways to invest, and you can modify your portfolio depending on your risk and what you feel comfortable holding, but I believe this breakdown provides good insight as to how to get started. I'd LOVE to hear about how you guys recommend investing your first $1000, or better yet, how you actually invested your first $1000. I was one of those who fell into the penny stock trap when I started - so I hope to help people out there avoid this if possible.

    Happy investing!

    Investing in water?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 01:46 PM PST

    I've been generally interested in dividend investing. Of late I've gotten a more specific interest in investing in water (utilities specifically), though still dividend-oriented. Some popular water ETF options I've read up on include $CGW $FIW $PIO and $PHO

    However, these are broader funds, looking beyond water utilities to companies with water related tech and such. Still interesting, but not quite the focus that first drew me in. Strong individual utilities that I've looked at include $AWK $WTR $MSEX $CTWS .

    Anyone know of a water-utility-specific fund of some sort? I imagine even if such a fund did exist, its expenses would swallow up its gains. Am I absurd for carving out a small fun-money portion of my portfolio to buy a little bit of some of these individual utilities?

    Where can I trade a stock that has the prefix "ETR"?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 12:29 PM PST

    I'm trying to buy Infineon (ETR: IFX) but I can't find it on any of the brokerage platforms that I use. I did some Googling and it looks like it has something to do with a German exchange, but I coudn't find much more info beyond that.

    Does anyone have any idea how I can trade this stock?

    Thanks!

    What's the best way to learn trading (mentor or DIY)?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 12:00 PM PST

    What do you consider the most time and cost efficient way to learn stock trading?

    I feel there is a lot of material available on the internet to learn trading if one wanted to spend the time to sift through the vast quantity of info available and try to make sense of it. But maybe it would be more prudent to spend the money on a mentor or class that would tell you exactly what you need to learn rather than waste time and energy on trying to learn things that isn't going to be much help.

    Downsides to participating in securities lending programs?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 01:16 AM PST

    Specifically IB's program.

    I gather there are issues with dividends losing US tax exempt status and also some type of US federal investor protection being lost, but are there any other catches to this aside from that?

    $AIBEF help

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 01:15 AM PST

    Was hoping someone more experienced could help me out. I got in on this in advance when it was announced that Air Berlin (AIBEF) were about to be bought out by British airway IAB. The stock shot up the same day and I got in before, so I got good gains. Problem is, idk when to get out since it's a newish, low stock and most might not give a shit about this foreign company. How long do I stay in on this, any recommendations or people keeping up with this?

    Thanks a lot in advance.

    $KALA undervalued - buy before the weekend!

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 11:37 AM PST

    Kala Pharmaceuticals has a phase 3 drug that's expected to get FDA approval before 2018. Volume is relatively low and it's at an amazing buy in point. I expect this to go to $30+ in the next couple weeks. Analysts pretty much have it as a strong buy across the board.

    Taxes

    Posted: 28 Dec 2017 09:35 PM PST

    This year will be the first year I file taxes. I recently bought some stocks and I was curious. So if I hold onto them and don't sell any before January 1st, I don't have to pay any taxes on them correct? But if I sell them tomorrow then I have to include it in my taxes. Might be a dumb question but what the hell.

    ETF Overlap Question

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 08:59 AM PST

    I have shares of SPHD and SCHD. Recently reviewed the holdings with this neat tool: https://www.etfresearchcenter.com/tools/overlap.php?f1=SPHD&f2=SCHD

    34% SPHD'S 50 HOLDINGS ARE ALSO IN SCHD.

    So my question is, is that enough of a % that I should dump SPHD?

    $CRSP Any insight into why this is trending up?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 08:24 AM PST

    I added $crsp to my watchlist after going with $edit & $ntla mainly because because I believe that this technology will be the future of gene manipulation. I have been following it from before these companies went public. Anyway, any idea what is moving $crsp today?

    $SINA and $WB

    Posted: 29 Dec 2017 08:04 AM PST

    I'm wondering whether there is correlation with what's going on in the news with China.

    I recently purchased $SINA, but seriously considered $WB (same price at the time).

    $SINA has been falling a lot the past couple of days. Seems to be related to the whole China-N. Korea oil sharing.

    $WB went down briefly, yesterday but rebounded very quickly. SINA is the parent company. Why didn't they rebound back as hard?
