A third of Apples cash stack is sufficient, and it will be beneficial tax-wise due to the new reform (according to the article). [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2018 08:03 PM PST I've been given a very cool opportunity from my business school: a group Q&A with Warren Buffett. I have a few questions in mind, but would be really interested in seeing what your questions would be for Mr. Buffett. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2018 03:08 PM PST I'm relating to this article. The essence of the message is, that data centers have to pay for the same amount of power and delivering 30% less CPU capacity. Consequences:
Update: It turns out there is an early benchmark from a reputable source In my opinion data centers will look for diversification. ARM-CPUs are candidates. At least AMD wil have a boost for the next year. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2018 11:37 PM PST I've recently begun to be frugal for the first time, and finally have some money accumulating in my bank... I studied finance and work in banking, so I should be on top my finances - but I'm not, although getting there through discipline. Now my problem; I have never invested before and am quite negative about equities at the moment. US equities have to have run their course right? If I think this should I just sit and wait for a correction? Or invest now, forget about it, and hope I ride a wave? Every time I go towards buying something I talk myself out of it for varying reasons. Given I'm young (26) I think I might just buy a growth ETF, I'm in Australia and think AUD is overvalued, so thinking a US one. (My job doesn't allow me to buy individual shares).

| Is it worth investing in cryptocurrency Posted: 02 Jan 2018 12:25 PM PST Bitcoin was trending last year, but it's has dropped significantly. Ethereum, litecoin, and ripple is making news a lot this days. Is it too early or late to invest on this coins? [link] [comments]  |
| Is it crazy to have 0% bonds in your portfolio in your 20's? Posted: 02 Jan 2018 04:25 PM PST I just don't see the point. My whole portfolio is split between various ETFs - SPY, VT, ITUX, IEMG/VWO, etc etc Am I making a huge mistake by neglecting my 10% bond allocation or is it ok to basically skip this until I hit my 30s? I have zero big expenses on the horizon and have plenty of money for an emergency fund. I just don't see the point of bonds right now when my cash flow is fine and my investment horizon is like 30 years, what am I missing? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2018 11:02 AM PST I've seen a large number of posts asking whether it's better to invest now or wait for a correction. Here's a link to my new favorite paper on the subject that I recently read, titled "When (If Ever) Has it Paid to Wait for a Stock Market Correction?": https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3042357 It's a short and easy read. Of course, the results aren't surprising and they support the usual adage that "Time in the market beats timing the market". They considered a wide range of target "dip" levels from 1% up to 10%, and a range of wait times from 1 year up to 5 years. Even waiting 1 year for a 1% dip cost about 4% in missed returns on average. Waiting longer or waiting for a deeper dip generally resulted in even higher costs. Just wanted to share. I'm not wholly against market timing but my preference is for strategies with a history of positive excess returns rather than negative. [link] [comments]  |
| Primer on the Indian markets: part 1 - "The Exchanges, their indices and volumes" Posted: 02 Jan 2018 11:13 AM PST This is the first in a series of posts to provide /r/investing participants with a basic understanding the Indian markets. This posts is on the Indian Exchanges, their components and volumes. Currency: All stock traded on Indian exchanges is in Indian Rupee (INR). Current exchange rates for INR are here. The annualised INR volatility against USD is 5% to 15% discounting outliers. Exchanges: India has 2 main stock exchanges: - BSE: The Bombay Stock Exchange - NSE: The National Stock Exchange The BSE is older and is Asia's first stock exchange. It started in 1855 as an informal gathering of brokers. It's the 11th largest exchange globally with a total market capitalisation of $2 Trillion. It has about 5,800 listings The NSE, set up in 1992, is the new kid on the block. it has only about 1,800 listings but a market cap equal to the BSE and is the 12th largest exchange globally. It's roughly the equal of the NASDAQ is the sense that it has always been a more technologically advanced exchange. Several thousand companies are listed and trade on both exchanges which makes for some interesting arbitrage opportunities sometimes as NSE also has far more participants and it's price moves tend to be sharper and and ahead of the BSE in some instances but equally susceptible to price anomalies due to investor activity. Volume wise, any stock with a listing on both exchanges is going to see more trading activity on the NSE than the BSE but this difference is going away slowly. Their Indices: The BSE is dominated by older companies, which is obvious since it had a 140 year start on the NSE and was the only exchange on which to list for that time. However, given the nature of the Indian market where a handful of companies dominate the market cap and volume tables, the two exchanges have benchmark indices of a fairly small number of stocks:
The Sensex is dominated by Financials which is mostly attributable to HDFC and ICICI which are 2 of the largest private sector banks in the country. The next 2 largest sectors are Consumer Discretionary and Energy but he drop from #1 to #2 is massive. The Nifty 50 is also dominated by the Banks though to a lesser degree than the Sensex (27% vs 40%). The subsequent sectors are different however with Computer software taking the #2 spot. There are multiple ETF's which follow wither index and trade on international exchanges. INDY, for example, is a Nifty etf. that's all for now. In the next post, I will get into the different sectors with respect to the companies, dispersion and fundamental performance over time. [link] [comments]  |

| CFO/Sec'y of RIOT Blockchain previously sued twice over pump-and-dump biotech company Posted: 02 Jan 2018 01:01 PM PST The CFO and Secretary of Riot Blockchain (NASDAQ:RIOT) is Jeffrey G. McGonegal See here: https://www.riotblockchain.com/about/management-team The first pump-and-dump incident was under the name AspenBio: https://www.denverpost.com/2011/01/14/aspenbio-battling-investors-lawsuits/ CFO of AspenBio, Jeffrey McGonegal, was awarded a bit under $290k in stock options in just 2009 off of that pump and dump scheme (probably a lot more over the years of the now-defunct company's existence). Investors sued in 2011 (see: http://securities.stanford.edu/filings-documents/1045/APPY10_01/2011823_r01c_11CV00165.pdf). Jeffrey G. McGonegal is personally named in the lawsuit. After years of delay, a judge dismissed the lawsuit, despite misleading statements being made by AspenBio executives, and countless smaller investors losing money. The case was also dismissed despite AspenBio's management team personally profiting heavily due to these poorly informed investments. Then again, in 2015, after AspenBio was renamed to Venaxis, just 2 defendants were individually named in another lawsuit involving the then re-branded firm: http://securities.stanford.edu/filings-documents/1053/VI00_01/201522_f01c_15CV00222.pdf The two individually named defendants were Stephen Lundy and Jeffrey McGonegal. This lawsuit was over a separate pump-and-dump scandal involving Venaxis, and its shares falling from $2.04 to $0.55 on January 29th due to damaging information. The complaint states: "Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the APPY1 510(k) submission and the Company's future prospects. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the APPY1 test failed to meet the criteria for "substantial equivalence" based upon data and information submitted by Venaxis in its 510(k) submission; (2) the Company lacked a reasonable basis to conclude that the results from the APPY1 pivotal study were sufficient to support FDA clearance; and as a result of the foregoing, (3) Venaxis' public statements pertaining to the expected FDA clearance of its 510(k) submission were materially false and misleading at all relevant times." This is what comes up from a very quick, cursory Google search. Who knows how much more information would surface with more thorough background checks on Riot Blockchain's management team.

| Pros and cons of using Robin Hood for investing? Posted: 02 Jan 2018 06:10 PM PST I've been thinking of investing lately and so far "Robin Hood" seems very appealing to me. But I am a laymen so I'd figured I'd ask around Reddit. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2018 09:38 AM PST Now obviously, there is no one ETF that a person should have (one should be diversified). Which ETFs do you think have the most growth potential for 2018, and why? [link] [comments]  |
| Good portfolio analysis tool that accepts uploads Posted: 02 Jan 2018 06:20 AM PST I'm looking to keep track of my robinhood account's breakdown in terms of sectors, countries, etc - and am looking for a tool which allows you to upload a spreadsheet of positions, and then provides a nice breakdown of detailed composition (e.g. "mining - metals" instead of just "materials")... is anyone aware of such a tool?

| ETF VS VIIIX (401k to Personal Capital) Posted: 02 Jan 2018 03:38 PM PST I have approx 300k in a retirement account with my former employer (lost my job Nov 2017). Personal Capital said they would give me 3 months free if I gave them 250k. If I transfer my old 401k to them (I am only in VIIIX there (it charges .02% but seems to track the S&P500), would I would lose the ability to ever transfer back to something as low cost as this? Am I making a mistake by transferring (have to do it this thursday)? Should I leave it in there, aside from the VIIIX there are a couple of more institutional funds. [link] [comments]  |
| Why does Betterment recommend NOT using tax loss harvesting if you're in a low tax bracket? Posted: 02 Jan 2018 07:53 PM PST Title says it all. Isn't reducing your taxable income always a good move? [link] [comments]  |
| Should I Invest in Frontier Market Index ETF’s Posted: 02 Jan 2018 03:51 PM PST I've read and researched into frontier markets quite a bit recently and am wondering what people's thoughts on passively managed index funds are for these markets. It's my understanding that these markets represent a minuscule amount of the global capitalization, are illiquid and can be volatile. That being said, I'm 23 years old and wonder if it would be beneficiary to allocate a small portion of my portfolio to a frontier market index. I currently have about 50% in US markets, 9% in emerging markets, 9% in developed Europe markets and 15% in Asia Pacific Markets (low cost index funds). Thanks in advance for your thoughts and advice. EDITED active management to passive management [link] [comments]  |
| Can’t afford Vanguard minimums Posted: 02 Jan 2018 05:46 AM PST Hey guys, so I wanted to get started investing and a lot of people suggested index funds. I wanted to go with Vanguard but most of there minimums are 3k and I wanted to start with about 1k initially and add to it over time. Should I save up for the the minimum or move to a broker like Schwab that has no minimums for the most part? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Jan 2018 12:10 PM PST Hi all, just after a quick sense check of my understanding of bonds please. I hold Vanguard Global Short-Term Bond Index fund, on the basis that it's better than cash, but takes into account a potentially rising interest rate environment. My investment horizon is greater than 10 years. I stayed away from longer term bonds (like Vanguard Total Bond Market) because of potential rate rises, but read recently that if you intend to hold bonds longer term (over the length of the bond), then there would be no loss, irrespective of interest rate impact. Would someone mind clarifying please? ...and if the above is correct, how is there no impact? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 02 Jan 2018 08:07 PM PST I used a free T-Rowe price account to get access to Morningstar's full X-ray tool the past couple years to review my portfolio during my annual rebalance. T-Rowe price no longer seems to offer free accounts to anyone, and has locked me out of my account. Does anyone know another avenue to get access to Morningstar's X-ray portfolio analysis tool for free? [link] [comments]  |
