| Buffett on cyrptocurrencies: 'I can say almost with certainty that they will come to a bad ending' Posted: 10 Jan 2018 05:56 AM PST Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies "will come to a bad ending," billionaire investor Warren Buffett told CNBC on Wednesday. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/10/buffett-says-cyrptocurrencies-will-almost-certainly-end-badly.html [link] [comments]  |

| Bankruptcy Looms As Sears Warns "Will Consider All Options" If New Financing Process Fails Posted: 10 Jan 2018 10:05 AM PST Sears Holdings, the one-time giant retailer that has been teetering on the edge of bankruptcy for years now, announced this morning that, following yet another disappointing holiday season (shocking), they've initiated new discussions with lenders aimed at renegotiating terms on some $1 billion of "non-first lien debt."

| Investing & compounding monthly for income? Posted: 11 Jan 2018 04:27 AM PST Hi everyone, I have a full time job but I have an app that generates between $1-4k monthly. My salary is enough for me to make a living and I want to invest this extra income to generate passive income and don't mind taking riskier methods, and anything goes - from investing in cryptocurrency to saving for a downpayment on a house, I'd like to hear your thoughts on how to generate income from these amounts. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| MoviePass considering ICO, Investing on blockchain tech (stocks up 20%). Posted: 10 Jan 2018 04:30 PM PST MoviePass just hit the 1.5 million subscriber mark and is now eyeing an IPO—or an ICO. Initial coin offerings, in which an internet company sells tokens for later use in its own ecosystem, have exploded in popularity; companies have raised nearly $4 billion in ICOs so far, according to CoinDesk. "We look at all that stuff," says Ted Farnsworth, CEO of Helios and Matheson, which is the majority owner of MoviePass. "We've been in discussions with all those type of things, with all our attorneys. The main thing is really, how do you do it within all the regulations of the SEC, and also on the blockchain side as well, make sure it's not just the flavor of the day. But we've looked at that technology for well over a year now." MoviePass has been a hit with moviegoers happy to pay less than $10 per month for unlimited movies. Short sellers have also taken a liking to the stock, questioning its road to profitability given that it pays full-price for its members' tickets. Helios and Matheson (HMNY) short interest on the Nasdaq is up from 522,265 in August to 3,726,178 in December. For MoviePass CEO Mitch Lowe, a crypto push has legitimate appeal because, "The exciting thing is that anytime you make a service available that you can use crypto currency, actually use it in your day-to-day business, helps support that altogether with people." — Jen Rogers https://finance.yahoo.com/news/moviepass-considering-ico-blockchain-tech-143537105.html [link] [comments]  |
| Why do people invest in Amazon with its HIGH P/E ratio and lack of profit? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 10:25 PM PST Going by the standard rule of not investing in companies that have high P/E ratios (>15). I want to understand why people keep investing in tech companies to better gauge if I should. Amazon has an enormous 250+ P/E ratio. Although sales are huge, they have not turned a profit for most years. Warren Buffet says that he wouldn't invest there. This feels like a speculative bubble but then again, tech companies like Amazon have been at it for almost 20 years now. What am I missing? [link] [comments]  |
| Daily advice thread. All questions about your personal situation should be asked here Posted: 11 Jan 2018 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

| Newbie to Bonds. Why do Bond funds go down? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 02:53 PM PST I 10% in the Vanguard total bond fund and it's gone down some. Why does this go down? I thought bonds were a safe bet. With rates scheduled to rise 3 times this year, will it just continue to drop? Or will it go up? How does it work? [link] [comments]  |
| What are your thoughts on inflation? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 10:27 AM PST I just read Yellen's speech summary from back in November, and I was hoping to get the subs thoughts on the issue. Yellen stated that she was under the impression that the lack of inflation was due to one-time items (such as the drop in cell-phone servicing fees) but also stated that it could be due to more permanent issues (such as the aging population.) Here's the summary of the report here: http://mam.econoday.com/byshoweventfull.asp?fid=484955&cust=mam&year=2017&lid=0&prev=/byweek.asp#top I was wondering if you all sided with Yellen's belief that inflation should pick up in the next year or two or if you think we're in a persistently stagnant inflationary environment due to more permanent issues? I'd love to hear your thoughts! Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| What are some good ideas for investing in the success of self-driving cars? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 08:03 PM PST Does anyone have ideas on how to bet on them working? Either directly (e.g. Google or Tesla or whatever) or second-order effects (industries that they may revolutionize, e.g. last-mile delivery or whatever). [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jan 2018 11:51 PM PST My position in Realty Income Corporation is down nearly 8% in the last couple weeks. Looking to go long term with my investment, should I double down in the position to force a net 4% loss? I know REITs are volatile, but it's also at a 52 week low. [link] [comments]  |
| [Bonds] Bonds behaving unexpectedly? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 03:05 PM PST I've heard the praise, a rising tide lifts all boats. I've been looking for a more conservative portfolio structure than past years. I'm pretty pessimistic on the current market growth. I've historically shy'd away from bond funds because for the past few years they've been yield 1.75-2.5% (as I've observed them in real time. Maybe the retrospective data reflects differently). When I checked recently though Federal Bonds were yielding 5-6.75% on vanguard(?). I spoke with an older mentor who cautioned me that Federal interest rate hikes typically make bond funds go down as their existing holdings become less valuable in light of more attractive higher interest rates available. When I read the Vanguard bond fund descriptions, they also say this exact same thing. My question, if interest rate hikes are supposed to make bond funds go down, why are bond funds up right now? Is this just the overall investor optimism pouring into the balanced portfolio funds which is lifting bonds? Whats your guess on bond fund outlooks for next year if the market holds. What about if the market crashes (15%). [link] [comments]  |
| Benefits of ETFS vs Mutual Funds? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 02:03 PM PST Hi all, I just opened a Vanguard account and am looking into investing my Roth into either ETFs or Mutual Funds. Most of vanguard's mutual funds have much higher expense ratios than their ETFs. With that in mind, why would I choose a mutual fund over an ETF? Is there some other benefit to using a mutual fund?

| [Serious - For educational purpose] What is holding MU back? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 07:35 PM PST I ask this question because of all the fuss. What is holding a stock like MU back so much in such a bullish market. Considering the last earnings beat, the price and the fact that others like NVDA are so much higher priced and continue to climb. I am looking for answers that would help me understand for future reference and be able to make better decision. [link] [comments]  |
| What are your thoughts on utilities for 2018? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 03:24 PM PST VPU was up nearly 17% in 2017 before it started to drop early in December. As I understand it, rising interest rates may have something to do with it but I don't quite understand how sensitive the utilities market is to rate hikes. I am trying to get a sense of where VPU may end up by the end of 2018, assuming no wider market correction by then. Thoughts? [link] [comments]  |
| Planning to get out of KODK tomorrow, what’s another risky play with potential? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 04:42 PM PST It was fun while it lasted, but I plan to get out of KODK tomorrow and go towards something else. I currently just use the gains I've gotten for risky investments, so only around 330-350. What's a risky play but with lots of potential? [link] [comments]  |
| Do you think it's necessary to focus on one sector or subsector to do as well as you can? Posted: 10 Jan 2018 04:22 PM PST I'm getting more into equities, after trading a macro based style for the last few years. I'd like to add long/short equities aspect to my portfolio, and I'd like to be a generalist (cover all sectors of the entire market if possible) but I'm unsure if I'd be better off specializing. If being a generalist can work do you guys think there's any tips or guidelines I should follow? The advantage would be a wider range of opportunities, while specializing would allow me to have more in-depth information about one sector. I should still be able to make macro plays in baskets of stocks, even if I specialize in one sector, so that takes some of the edge off, though I'd like to be able to cover the entire market with a good way of filtering opportunities. ETA: The downside of being a generalist would be that it'd be time-consuming to do DCF's and properly research every company in every sector while keeping up with relevant news for each company. I'd wager it'd be impossible for one person to do it properly, so depth of knowledge would suffer covering all sectors. Downsides of specializing is you miss out on plays in other sectors. ETA2: I already participate in sector play/rotation based on macro calls. [link] [comments]  |
| Shorting the S&P500 with SH,SDS, or SPXU. Need some advice on these ETF products. Posted: 10 Jan 2018 12:57 PM PST Hi everyone, Im looking at ways to short the market. Not going to currently short - but will likely short in the next 1-2 years. I would like to get your opinions on these products. After reading the prospectus I'm confused about something. Will i essentially loose my investment through a bad day of trading? Or will my investment be based on the share price of the fund? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jan 2018 11:26 AM PST No news as far as I can tell. It's falling like a lead weight, even more than the spinoffs. Of course I'm probably responsible, since I bought it last week. Sorry, guys. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jan 2018 08:59 PM PST I have several questions about them. Is the ESA contribution limit per child per year $2,000 each OR in my case $4,000 total since I have 2 kids (age 8 and 2). Is the deadline for contributing to the 2017 year for our children on 12/31/2017, 01/15/2018, or something else? What are all the steps we need to take to go about setting up an ESA and contributing to it? How do we go about managing the money? Is it government run or can we pick where we invest like mutual funds from Fidelity, Vanguard, Charles Schwab, and the like? If the money is used for educational purposes, the money can be withdraw tax free, right? When it comes time to use the ESA for college, how do we get the money and then prove that it's educational related? What consists of educational related expenses? I assume tuition, but what about text books, room and board, food, campus parking pass, and the like? Are there other valid uses of the money that may be obvious or not so obvious? If one or both of our children do not use the full amount, how do we handle getting the remaining balance? For example, if we save, invest, and build the account up to $50,000 for one child and she only uses $25,000, how would we go about using the remaining $25,000 for something not educationally related? Would we owe taxes on it? Could it be used immediately without penalty or do I have to be 59 and a half or some other rule(s)? I appreciate the help. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 10 Jan 2018 08:47 PM PST Hey all, at the start of the new year I decided to start planning ahead (im graduating at the end of the year with $50,000 in student loan debt woohoo!) and start investing as well as get my finances together (budget, start a high yield savings account, and an IRA). I started by downloading the app "Acorn" and went with doubling my round-ups as well as a weekly $10 investment. Not alot, just starting out. Any advice for a25 year old soon-to be college graduate? Thank everyone [link] [comments]  |
| I Bonds 6 month CPI interest question Posted: 10 Jan 2018 08:45 PM PST I have question about the US Savings bond I Bonds. I know the inflation rate is updated on May 1st and November 1st. My question is if I buy a bond on April 16th do I get 6 months of the composite rate determined in last November or only for 14 days and then the new rate on May 1st? [link] [comments]  |
