GoPro has hired JP Morgan to put itself up for sale Posted: 08 Jan 2018 10:27 AM PST GoPro has hired JP Morgan to put itself up for sale https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/08/gopro-has-hired-jp-morgan-to-put-itself-up-for-sale.html [link] [comments] |
How does Warren Buffett do it? Posted: 08 Jan 2018 05:33 AM PST If it really comes from spending a million nights reading data and statistics and financial reports and not inside trading information, how the hell did Buffett do it? and more importantly, how does he still manage to keep doing it? If what he says he does is true (reading billions of financial reports and studying a whole lot) then isn't it so that just any average idiot can do it? [link] [comments] |
Bought GoPro at $10, what to do? Posted: 08 Jan 2018 06:14 PM PST Bought thousands of GoPro shares a while back because I thought it would be the future of drone technology and that Nick Woodman would be a responsible man. Fast forward to today and it's trading at $6. What should I do? This is literally the lowest price it has ever been, but I don't want to sell just yet... What would YOU do if you had a bunch of GoPro shares right now but bought at $10? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 09 Jan 2018 03:33 AM PST So am I the only one who is concerned about the increasing rate of consumer credit growth? Sure. people are more confident and lenders are lending more, but I don't see fundamentals, like wage growth, really justifying credit growth. This situation makes me very concerned about financials and the market overall. [link] [comments] |
MiFiD II can't buy US ETFs. Solutions? Posted: 09 Jan 2018 02:02 AM PST I hold a number of US ETFs, however I've recently found out I can no longer purchase any of them, only sell my current holdings. MiFiD II requires that when buying an ETF documentation must be available in the client's language, so as a Brit I didn't think this would effect me trading US ETFs. However it seems a lot of US ETFs have no ETF documentation at all (not even in English). At least they're not available through my broker DeGiro which means I can't trade them. Does anyone know if there is a broker I can trade US ETFs like ROBO and CWEB unaffected? If anyone in the UK uses Interactive Brokers, it would be interesting to know if you're also affected by this as that's really the only decent alternative to DeGiro. [link] [comments] |
Beginner investor: Am I being too optimistic with this ETF? Posted: 09 Jan 2018 01:54 AM PST I'm 19 and I have some extra capital to invest. Since learning that the technology sector in the S&P 500 returned 37% in 2017, I want to invest all (or most of) my money in a single ETF that contains those stocks. With a compound investment calculator I calculated that if that yearly return remained the same, I could comfortably retire at 50. Am I making any beginner mistakes in thinking like this? I've just started learning about investment and trading this year. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 09 Jan 2018 03:57 AM PST Where do you guys see Bank of America going over the next year? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 08 Jan 2018 09:21 PM PST At the moment, I want to buy individual stocks rather than a fund to show them exactly what they own in each company. I want to teach them about compound interest and how reinvesting any dividends will grow their portfolios even more [link] [comments] |
Posted: 08 Jan 2018 07:32 AM PST Let me add a bit of backstory. I bought this stock that was going up and down like a roller-coaster. I decided that I was ready to lose up to 20% with the opportunity to double my capital. What happened next is that when it was around -20%, the government commission that regulates that stock exchange (something that may not exist in the USA, I don't know) took the stock out of the market. After a few months the stock was on the market again with a very reduced price (-70%). I had no way to sell in the meanwhile. So now I find myself with a very painful -80% on half of my capital, or -40% total. We are talking about almost 100k euros. Yeah, that hurts. [link] [comments] |

Posted: 09 Jan 2018 03:26 AM PST Watching Wall Street boast its best start to a year in over a decade, investors are turning their focus to the fourth quarter earnings season, with results beginning to trickle in this week. Traders are focusing on the recent U.S. tax overhaul, which could provide breathtaking numbers, but it will not affect stock prices much. ECONOMIES German factory orders in Europe's biggest economy slipped by 0.4% in November after three months of gains. The dip was largely due to fluctuations in bulk orders but the overall trend remains positive. China's forex reserves posted an eleventh straight monthly increase in December, $20.7B, taking the full-year increase of the world's largest foreign-currency stockpile to $129B. The FED should raise interest rates three times this year, given the already strong economy will get a boost from tax cuts. ARAMCO's 5% IS FOR SALE Aligning its strategy with peers, Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX), CEO Ben van Beurden said that growth of competitor Shell's (RDS.A) oil and gas operations in the next decade will depend on shale production. On what else?! Candies? What a discovery! Saudi Aramco and some of the kingdom's biggest companies said they'll pay Saudi staff more money, matching a royal order amid rising prices. Saudi Arabia seeks to sell as much as 5% of Aramco. CRYPTO The SEC has received a request to allow five bitcoin-related ETFs to be listed on Arca, a secondary marketplace on the NYSE. The instruments, are not tied to the price of the cryptocurrency itself, but would track bitcoin futures. AT&T BACKS DOWN AT&T (T) is backing away from a plan to sell phones made by Chinese handset giant Huawei, on the eve of a big announcement of the deal. The deal that Huawei was set to announce tomorrow would have been its first partnership with a major U.S. carrier, but AT&T has changed its mind. So far it is not clear why AT&T backed down, but there are two issues occur. Are Huawei's phones carry spyware? Is it because the US wants to have domestic competition? At one point we'll have the answer. THERE ARE NO JEDIS IN CHINA $36 million in third-week grosses, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (Sony) finally toppled Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Disney) from the top of the box-office charts. Disney made an impressive $1.2 billion, but it is far from the estimated $2 billion. It seems that China has no Jedis, the movie made only 26% of expectations in the country. The Force is weak in China. NVIDIA, VOLKSWAGEN, UBER, AI Making further gains in the autonomous vehicle industry, Nvidia (NVDA) is partnering with Uber and Volkswagen on AI platforms. So far, 320 companies involved in self-driving cars - whether software developers, automakers, or sensor and mapping companies - are using Nvidia Drive, formerly branded as the Drive PX2, proven that there is more than cryptomining to the company! WHIRLPOOL KICKS OFF CES2018 Apple (AAPL) Watch users will soon have the ability to control Whirlpool (WHR) appliances through the wearable. Whirlpool announced the development at CES and said the compatibility would come later this year to 20 connected appliances. Whirlpool says Amazon (AMZN) Alexa and Google (GOOGC) Assistant voice controls will also arrive in 2018. SPACEX - THE FIRST LAUNCH OF 2018 SpaceX successfully launched a secret U.S. government payload called Zuma on Sunday and landed its rocket back on Earth. The Falcon 9 powered a spacecraft made by Northrop Grumman, which was sent into low-Earth orbit. SpaceX is now looking towards its next challenge, launching the Falcon Heavy - its largest rocket to date - at the end of January, meanwhile Tesla's stock price soared higher. #DAILY PICK Amazon (AMZN) Alexa Onboard was introduced yesterday. Another green day. Electronic Arts (EA) is upgraded to Buy, new PT is $130. Applied Materials (AMAT) also got an upgrade, double bottom formed, ready to rock! Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) had great presentation at JPM Healthcare conference. Climbing steady. PayPal (PYPL) one day transfer, instant debit card transfer. Smells like blockchain integration. But who cares?! $86 on the way. Tight stop people! FX WORLD Not a lot happened on Monday, mostly momentum trading was possible. It doesn't seem to be busy today either, still look for the correct entry points! The EURUSD initially took off to the upside, then broke down to the 1.20 area. 1.19 offers support, where the pair can find buyers and clear the 1.21 level. The GBPUSD didn't do a lot, which is a sign that it is trying to break out. 1.365 offers resistance, if we break above, the pair will aim higher. 1.3333 is supportive underneath. The USDJPY did a lot of back and forth move during Monday, but couldn't clear 113.5. Expect pull backs, which will offer good entry points, the pair eventually will break out on top! 112 is kind of an absolut floor.

How does a hedge fund of hedge funds work? Posted: 09 Jan 2018 03:16 AM PST Lake many, I was reading the Michael Wolff book on the Trump White House, and in it it mentions that Anthony Scaramucci's SkyBridge Capital is 'a fund of funds'; a hedge fund that invests in hedge funds. So comes the obvious question: How does that work? Seems like something that any person or organization could do given the capital, and that it doesn't make sense paying fees to 'experts' in a fund fund, who it turn have to pay fees to the other funds. How could that be worth it? [link] [comments] |
Any (non-institutional) investors with experience in currency hedging? Posted: 09 Jan 2018 02:34 AM PST Greetings, everyone. I am based in Europe. I receive my income in EUR, but will need cash for a major acquisition in $ in about 1 year. Obviously, I'm happy to see $ depreciate with respect to EUR, but I'm not a particularly risk-taking person and would prefer to eliminate currency exchange risk, rather than pray that the trend continues. What options would you recommend? Here are some of the options I have considered so far:
Thank you! [link] [comments] |
Posted: 08 Jan 2018 08:05 AM PST Given the reliance of most new tech on lithium batteries, plus with demand likely to be driven up by Tesla's gigafactory, what are some lithium companies would you consider investing in? So far I'm looking at LIT etf but would also like ideas on individual stocks. [link] [comments] |

CRISPR methods may be ineffective in humans Posted: 08 Jan 2018 07:38 AM PST If you noticed CRISPR stocks taking a ~20% hit this morning, a study (notably not yet peer reviewed) was released that suggests a substantial percentage of people may have immune responses to Cas9. Engadget Article for a quick summary. For those that follow CRISPR companies particularly closely, what are your thoughts on potential impact going forward? In the event that the study is accurate, I'd be curious about the feasibility of alternatives, timelines in which they might be implemented, etc. [link] [comments] |
What should I invest in and where to I buy it Posted: 08 Jan 2018 11:53 PM PST I have no idea how to do this but Id like to get rich. [link] [comments] |
Questions about bond's role in a/your portfolio. Posted: 08 Jan 2018 05:41 PM PST I ran across this article from 2014 in which the author argues against owning bonds due to their vulnerability to interest rate rises and their low returns. " I would love to find a bond fund that could be both a safe haven and could provide steady returns, but I just don't think that exists anymore." Maybe she's asking for too much? However, they have an image from a Vanguard paper that "shows the impact of adding bonds to dampen volatility (as measured by standard deviation), while not drastically reducing returns". It seems like most people here are 100% equities, as am I. But it seems that by adding just 10% you would make a significant reduction in volatility with a very small loss of return. Is the trade off worth it to you? Why or why not? I'm thinking about adding bonds to my IRA but like most people, including the author of the article, the return just seems almost negligible but maybe it's because I've only experienced this bull market. FWIW, I'm 31 and my wife and I are hoping to at least have the option of retiring at 55. [link] [comments] |
Did the FIFO stock-selling rule stay in the Senate tax bill? Posted: 08 Jan 2018 09:21 AM PST I know it was included in the draft of the bill, but did the final bill they passed keep this absurd rule? If I made big gains in a stock I bought last year, do I have to sell my stocks older than 1 year in order to sell by newest stock? For the uninformed: https://taxfoundation.org/senate-tax-reform-bill-restricts-choice-shares-sell-first/ [link] [comments] |
Anyone switch from equities to forex trading? Posted: 08 Jan 2018 10:53 PM PST I'm currently deciding between the two as I'm currently employed FT. Forex just seems to fit better with my schedule but I'm on PST so if I do trade I will just be up for the NY open. My understand of Forex is that it can take years to become proficient. For those successful forex traders out there, I'm curious what are your skill sets and how much time did you spend learning before you went live on the accounts. It seems the difficult part is being able develop an edge and this is where a background in statistics or CS would be helpful. edit: words [link] [comments] |
Posted: 08 Jan 2018 07:03 PM PST I was doing some research and found the ETF SDS. It bets against the market. I believe the market is going to continue to grow and this ETF will continue to decline. So my question is, how do I short the ETF? Any help is appreciated. [link] [comments] |
