| Is no one else concerned how poorly the USD is doing? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 11:17 AM PST All I see on here is celebration about how well the S&P/NASDAQ/Dow have done this past year...but no one ever mentions how shitty the USD has done. Down 14% compared to euro, down 15% compared to GBP, down 9% against CAD...seems like a lot of the gains in the market can be chalked up to devaluation of the dollar. [link] [comments]  |

| My gains are being wiped out by the dollar depreciation. Any advice? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 02:16 PM PST I'm from the UK and have made some quite nice gains from US listed stocks. However, these gains have been wiped out by the pound strengthening and the dollar depreciating. Any advice on what do? [link] [comments]  |

| Daily advice thread. All questions about your personal situation should be asked here Posted: 25 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

| Posted: 24 Jan 2018 08:14 AM PST Bullish on electric cars / automated driving? Tencent owns 5% of Tesla and a $1.6 billion stake in the Chinese up-start, NIO. Bullish on e-Commerce / ePayment solutions / in-app payment? Tencent owns 20% of JD.com and a stake in Vipshop. They, of course, operate WeChat, QQZone and QQ - combined these have MAU of 980 million. Within each of these, they have finance solutions, the biggest being WeChat Pay - part of which is contributing to the 143% Year on Year revenue growth for their other business department (featuring their payment business and Cloud business). Did you say you like The Cloud? Don't tell me that you like AI technology, too? Tencent owns two AI startup labs. They also run Tencent Cloud - a cloud services provider that has access to the best advertisement machine in China: Tencent's (aforementioned) social media portfolio. Now, I know what you're thinking right now: "Who is this guy, u/snight, with all of these circumstantial and qualitative comments? This isn't fundamental analysis; this is bullshit!" Well, to those of you who like to invest on more than just trends, let me posit this: Apart from their massive moat, a wealth of investments and insane social media portfolio. (Oh, they also have 43 million subscribers to Tencent video and a growing investment into revenue based literature and music platforms). They also achieved 61% YoY quarterly revenue growth and 45% net profit growth. They have a P/E of only 60, and a forward P/E of 40. They also have USD 13 billion in cash. Ma Huateng - or, as I like to call him, the one true Ma - has silently, steadily and overwhelmingly built up an empire of investments upon layers upon layers of IP with access to one of the biggest user base in the world. My last comment is food for thought, and to me, it summarises the entire philosophy of Tencent. You may know that WeChat is a social media platform, I haven't fully fleshed out how you can walk into a store, and (through WeChat) the automated payment technology can register what you pick up and charge it straight to your phone without you needing to talk to anyone or scan anything. What I haven't yet mentioned is Tencent's apps within apps. Tencent offers an in-app "app store", and they now offer more apps or "mini-apps" than Apple's AppStore.. Disclaimer: I am long Tencent CBBC's (Zero End Calls) Apologies for the fractured nature of this post, it is late, I just wanted to share my thoughts with you all. [link] [comments]  |
| Series I Savings Bonds are getting more Interest than my Savings Account Posted: 24 Jan 2018 04:58 PM PST FYI:
This seems like a pretty good deal at the moment, and can provide some protection from inflation while avoiding any stock market correction. I looked into Money Market accounts as well, but they are only pulling 1.5% for the highest over at Allys. [link] [comments]  |

| Is there any data suggesting that analyst ratings are meaningful? "Outperform", "bullish", etc Posted: 24 Jan 2018 03:47 PM PST If one fills their portfolio with stocks that are highly rated by analysts, would you expect it to outperform an index fund? [link] [comments]  |
| So where is all the money coming from? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 08:23 AM PST This may sound like a really silly question, but with money apparently pouring into stocks, where is it coming from? Has all of this just been sitting around in cash? Somehow that doesn't seem likely. Is there a selloff in bonds or some other asset? Wouldn't that be generating its own headlines? Again, it may seem like a silly question, but given that we've been in a bull market since 2009, one would think that most of the discretionary money was already in the stock market. Thoughts?

| What brokerage lets you trade premarket 1am PST Posted: 25 Jan 2018 01:41 AM PST It's about 130am PST and I can see there is volume for some stocks being traded. Some brokerages let you trade at 4am PST/ 7am EST supposedly that's premarket but there's still trading and volume earlier. [link] [comments]  |

| First Solar (FSLR) Is Using Robots to Better Tap the Sun Posted: 24 Jan 2018 10:16 AM PST "The Ohio plant has been reborn as an almost fully automated operation, daily churning out hundreds of solar panels for a fraction of what it costs rivals to make them. The secret: supersize panels made with cadmium telluride, an energy-absorbing metal compound that First Solar engineers figured out how to spray on glass sheets in a thin film. First Solar invested more than $1 billion in researching and developing the cad-tel spray over the course of two decades. Its success upended the business of solar panel production even before the Trump administration announced tariffs on overseas solar hardware on Jan. 22." https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-01-24/first-solar-is-using-robots-to-better-tap-the-sun [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 24 Jan 2018 08:16 AM PST I was listening to Ray Dalio on Bloomberg: He said that a %1 rise in bond yields can cause a bear market in bonds. Can someone explain that to me. I would think rise in bond yields would increase demand for them. Making equities look less desirable. He also mentions the Feds having to unload they bonds they bought during QE causing a bond bear market. Which makes sense because it increases supply. I feel like I am missing some relationship between bond yields and bond prices... [link] [comments]  |
| WSJ: Qualcomm Is Slapped With $1.23 Billion EU Fine for Illegal Payments to Apple Posted: 24 Jan 2018 04:50 AM PST From the WSJ: (...) The EU said Qualcomm had abused its dominant position by paying billions of dollars to Apple from 2011 to 2016 on the condition it wouldn't buy from rivals, hindering other companies from competing in the market. "These payments were not just reductions in price—they were made on the condition that Apple would exclusively use Qualcomm's baseband chipsets in all its iPhones and iPads," said EU antitrust chief Margrethe Vestager. "This meant that no rival could effectively challenge Qualcomm in this market, no matter how good their products were." https://www.wsj.com/articles/eu-to-fine-qualcomm-over-exclusivity-payments-to-apple-1516783685 [link] [comments]  |
| What should my next investment be? Posted: 25 Jan 2018 01:51 AM PST So the quick backstory is I currently have ~5.5k in the vanguard s&p500 index fund and with income tax coming around I'll soon have another 3k give or take to put into investments, preferable index funds. Question is should I just add it to my current fund or should I use the money to start up an investment in another (once again preferable index) fund. I'll add that that I do dca with the sp500 fund and I'll continue too wether or not I get another fund as well. As a upper-lower class 22 year old I'm Not too interested currently in individual stocks, I'm just aware that I should plan for the future. So what do you guys recommend me do? TLDR should I add 3k to my already existing account or invest in another? [link] [comments]  |
| Trying to invest in s&p500 using vanguard - feeling lost on the site, any advice? Posted: 24 Jan 2018 08:48 PM PST I've got a couple questions on investing through vanguard 1st question is how does it work to invest in funds in conjunction with a roth ira? do I deposit money from my bank into the roth, and then vanguard uses that money to invest with? how do i tell vanguard where to invest this money? Does this factor into the $5500 cap on ira's per year? Next question is I dont really know what Im doing on the site itself. I end up finding a few different s&p500 labeled funds, how do I know which one is right and whats the difference between them? I see a fund listed as S&P 500 ETF (VOO). It seems to be the one I want except its less than 10 years old, and isnt the S&P like 50-60 years old if not more? Theres a few others like VOOG VOOV and a couple others. I feel really lost at this point hopefully I'm not making anyone pull their hair out with these questions, but Ive been wanting to get started investing for the last 2 years but felt daunted by using the site and various choices [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jan 2018 12:32 AM PST This didn't get approved in personalfinance so they told me to post it here. UHNW is defined as a net worth above $30 million. Let's say this someone has $5 million in liquid capital, which also happens to be his total net worth, I'm looking for the stories of UHNWs and the repeatable processes they used. Ideally some strategy that can be implemented aggressively and scaled quickly [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Jan 2018 03:08 AM PST What's everyone's thoughts on a market correction in the near term? The S&P seem to be making new highs every day while the overall economy seems to be fairly stagnate. I know tax reform is supposed to help companies but it seems the market is getting ahead of itself. [link] [comments]  |

| Finally jumped on Visa (V), need some feedback Posted: 24 Jan 2018 05:11 PM PST Hoping I am not too late, i have 80/20 split between etf, bonds/ single stocks. I have no more cash. Everything finally invested. My etf picks are very generic, VUN, VUS, XEF, VCN, ZAG, XEU, BRK.B (i know this isn't an etf but seems well diversified) My other 20% of the portfolio consistents of AAPL (50) GOOG (5) V (40) BABA (25) NVDIA (15) I am significantly up on all these holdings, except Visa which I just bought today. I understand its high risk but also seems high reward. Hoping to hold for long time. TFSA/RRSP (Maxed out) and rest in Margin. Any feedback is welcome [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 24 Jan 2018 05:56 PM PST Hey so I'm new to investing and I have a few questions. I have a thought exercise for you that would just about answer all of them. I'd really appreciate if you gave it a shot! Say you are tasked with investing $100 million following a barbell (bimodal) strategy. The caveat is that you cannot use the stock market or trading. What investments would you go with? Thanks! Edit: goal is either income or long-term growth. Take your pick. [link] [comments]  |
| Building portfolio in complex market Posted: 24 Jan 2018 05:39 PM PST Disclaimer: I don't know much about investing. Soon I'll start my first job. I happen to have landed a job which pays me significantly more than I'll need. I'll be based in London and paid in Pounds. However, I'm an EU citizen and want to have my money in euro's at some point. I plan to periodically invest in mutual funds, and perhaps some stocks I believe in to add some risk. Here's my problem on which I'd love some ideas. The Pound is weak against the Euro right now, and I don't see it getting much better once Brexit hits; perhaps even considerably worse. The Pound is strong against the Dollar, as is the Euro. How can I best hedge myself against a falling pound? 1) Would it be smart to put my money in USD, as it is currently weak. That would avoid trading my pounds against a bad exchange rate to the euro right now, and if the Pound falls I'll be protected by the USD, which I can convert to Euro's. or 2) Can I better trade my pounds for expensive euro's right away to avoid just transferring the risk from the Pound to the Dollar. I have more trust that the dollar recovers long term than the Pound though. Would this be too risky? I expect the dollar to appreciate at some point again over a long horizon. or 3) Invest in international funds - perhaps even emerging market funds - that can benefit from the weak position of the Pound and the USD. That would hedge my falling pound against stronger stocks hopefully. or 4) Keep everything in Pounds. Many thanks! [link] [comments]  |
