    Stocks - Question about the P/E ratio

    Stocks - Question about the P/E ratio


    Question about the P/E ratio

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 06:29 AM PST

    I'm still getting the hang of all of this so apologies if this is a silly question, but, if I understand correctly, the price to earnings ratio of a particular company's stock heavily depends on how much said company reinvests vs how much it keeps as profit, correct? So a very high or low P/E ratio is not necesarily either over- or undervalued without more context; a low profit can indicate that the company is not making money, but also that the company is simply spending a lot for reinvestment purposes.

    So if I see an astronomically high P/E ratio, I need to look at gross revenue, net revenue, where they are spending, revenue growth etc; before I can judge whether it's under or overvalued.

    Is this all correct, or am I off base?

    My brokerage offers free ETF purchases. If I only buy ETFs, this means they won't make money until I sell?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 09:42 AM PST

    The online brokerage I'm using offers free ETF buys. Let's pretend I only purchase ETFs and never sell (until I'm like 60 or something), that means the brokerage won't make money from me for the next few decades?

    Are there any other ways online brokerages make money from ETF purchases, or holding a client's ETFs?

    Why wouldn't you buy this tech dip?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 09:17 AM PST

    Seeing stocks like $BABA and $NVDA dip 8%-10% makes it very temping to just buy now, and sit on it. Even on the charts, it seems like this was a pretty reasonable correction, and now is the time to buy.

    To add on to this, nothing really screams bear-market anytime soon. This bull-market is propped up on many things, and with the tax-bill going through it should rally hard.

    Sector Rotation From Tech To Financials

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 08:50 AM PST

    Hello everyone, recently the market started switching out of tech into banks and financials. I wasnt 100% invested in tech but I was a little tech heavy.

    While I do think tech will recover to some extent because people who have nothing still spend money on phones and tablets..

    With all this being said what are some good bank or finacial stocks to invest in. Bank of America seems attractive to its low stock price and expected 10 % growth every year.

    So in your opinion what are the best stocks in this sector. It was easy for me to make my tech decisions (APPL, MU and BABA which isnt tech technically but it took the hit) but Im having a tough time with the financials.

    How will income repatriation actually play out?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 01:39 PM PST

    Assuming the tax bill gets through conference how will the market view companies like AAPL, CSCO, and others with large amounts of cash overseas?

    I do not think it is a foregone conclusion that all of this money will be brought back to the US.. Will some of this become priced in (with price bumps in the short term) or will the bumps happen when a company specifically announces bringing back an amount of money?

    I am long CSCO

    Could someone help me out? Just wondering, if I had invested 1500$ in Google 17 years ago, how much would that have been worth today?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 06:25 AM PST

    First time posting here! I apologize if I'm breaking any rules though it would seem ok to ask this here? If I had invested 1500 dollars in google in year 2000, would that have been a siginificant amount today or was it just as well that I invested in a new computer instead?

    Tesla Stock Bubble?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 06:16 AM PST

    So I am attempting to grow my money for collage and Tesla stock seemed like a fanatic idea because of the fact that I am graduating in 2021, it will be in the years before I graduate that the Tesla Semi-Truck with hit the markets, the Tesla Model 3 will become mass produced, and the Tesla Roadster drops. It seems like a wise semi-short term investment but i have been hearing some talk about a Tesla stock bubble, because of how much money they are gambling with a lot of money with these projects. What do you all think?

    Best site to look at companies financial statements?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 07:35 AM PST

    I used to use Google Finance to look at financial statements but looks like they changed their format a few weeks back which I'm not a fan of. Tried Yahoo Finance but didn't like their layout either, any suggestions?

    Long on Match.com & Tinder's growth - Thinking out loud

    Posted: 02 Dec 2017 04:40 PM PST

    -With the rollouts of Tinder Gold & Tinder Plus, Match has successfully converting a good number of its userbase into paying customers. Tinder is now like a freemium game that throttles matches and charges for upgrades.

    -The top 10% of guys stay at the top of the searching algorithm and get lots of matches for free. The vast majority of men below that, 90%, get few or none and end up frustrated. Will they pay up to resolve their frustration, for increased exposure and increased matches? Tinder Gold and the sales of Tinder boosts say yes.

    -Tinder's blowing up in India, China, and other 'traditionally-mind countries'. It's being adopted at very high rates in these sexually repressed societies. In these countries with heavy social restrictions on fucking strangers it is the ONLY outlet for hookups and/or sexuality. Men in these countries will pay for Tinder add-ons in droves.

    -MeToo has furthered distrust between the sexes. Women do not trust men to be 'gentlemen' & men do not trust women to not slap severe social or legal penalties to their innocent come-ons. No dude will risk his job or livelihood to holler at some chick who can go on Twitter, rouse a mob, and devastate his social and professional life with a single Tweet. The more that men are scared off of real-life flirtations, and real-life allegations of sexual harassment, the more they will shift their focus to the safety of internet dating sites, and the more gladly they will pay up for Tinder.

    Right now the stock is at $28, a little off its all-time-high of $31. Considering the above factors though, I think it's undervalued.

    Anybody here actually try and buy something from taobao or alibaba's website just to see if it is a reputable website?

    Posted: 02 Dec 2017 02:31 PM PST

    Great stock if the financials are true..not entirely sure how the SEC works with financial reports of overseas companies and there is cause for concern based on proportionality on the reliability of $BABA's Single's Day report...especially when Jack Ma wishes to make the event more international, which leads to cause for concern on how widespread the event actually is...I guess has anybody actuall tried to buy something from the company's subsidiary companies?

    Will we have a bull run in 2018 just like this year?

    Posted: 03 Dec 2017 12:53 AM PST

    This year 2017 has been a good year for most stocks bull running up the whole year and thus what are your opinions moving forward into 2018 will we see the same with the tax bill passed?

    To me valuations are being overextended and many companies are overvalued at this time thus I feel I should sell everything I have and go full cash right now in the event something happens in 2018 and maybe a 40-60% correction comes along.

    Everyone honest opinion please

    Car companies, engine development, but also infrastructure for fuel distribution, fuel production etc.

    Won't add any of my personal thoughts because I want to here your opinions, maybe I'll join in later.
