Posted: 04 Jan 2018 11:03 AM PST In the beginning of 2017, I was introduced to stocks by a co-worker. I bought $8,000 of a company sitting around $3 per share. Quite a bit in my opinion but by co-worker also did the same and he has been doing stocks for a long time so I trusted his judgement. Over the next 3 months, the shares dropped to $1.16 and I panicked. Sold all my shares. I lost about $5,000 and it hurt the bank account, but nothing to put me in major financial trouble. I just checked the share price and it closed yesterday at $10.35 a share. Not only did I lose $5,000, but if I had just held like my co-worker, Id have almost $20,000 gained which is a lot of money for me. Just makes me sick to my stomach knowing if I just held, my bank account would be sitting very nice. Instead, my bank account still isn't back to what it was before I invested. Is there any thoughts I can keep in mind to make myself feel better? [link] [comments] |
How do companies with no cash flow, and no revenue even get listed on the OTC? Posted: 04 Jan 2018 07:11 AM PST I keep seeing companies with no revenue, and no cash flow, that are listed on either the OTC market or others. I've also read that getting a company listed to be on the stock exchange can take up to 2 million in capital. If that's the case, how can I see companies, who headquarters are in a shared work space, who have 4+ years of no revenue, and negative cash flow for 4+ years... How is this possible?

Brief on How Stock Market Works Posted: 04 Jan 2018 07:48 PM PST You know that stock markets are secondary markets. Here, with potential buyers, existing owners of shares can execute. You must significantly understand that the corporations listed on stock markets. Do not buy and sell their own shares on a regular basis. Since the stock market is secondary, so when you buy a share of stock. This means, you are not buying it from the company but you are buying it from some other accessible shareholder. Similarly, when you sell your shares, you do not sell them back to the company. But you are selling them to some other investor. Volume is the number of shares change hands in a day. Various stocks on major exchanges have millions of shares issued. Which means potentially thousands of investors in shares may decide to buy or sell on any particular day. You must additionally perceive that a stock that has millions of daily volumes is alleged to be engaging. This is because; they can easily buy or sell their shares whenever they wish. Now let us know what is stock? In actual, shares are issued by companies to raise cash and then continues to trade on an exchange. Owning shares are made attractive when the overall stock has risen over the long-term. You must also be aware of some additional perks like dividends, profit potential, and voting rights. Though, share prices also fall, which is why investors typically choose to invest in a wide array of stocks. They only risk a small percentage of their capital on each one. At any time you can buy and sell the shares, assuming there is enough volume available to complete the transaction. This shows that investors can cut losses or take profits whenever they wish. You must take the help of some experienced technical analysts, in order to generate accurate future tips. [link] [comments] |
Investing in AI technology (artificial intelligence)? Posted: 04 Jan 2018 11:00 AM PST I've been getting emails stating that AI is the next big thing. Is anybody on here investing in AI? [link] [comments] |
Completely new to this and just want some advice on where to start Posted: 04 Jan 2018 09:46 AM PST So I'm completely new to investing and I was wondering what options I should consider since there are so many ways to go about this. I have $1000 I'm willing to invest with, but is my safe bet to just go through with a stock broker to ease me into the market, or try downloading apps such as Stockpile or Robinhood, or anything else anyone can offer as a good route?

Posted: 04 Jan 2018 03:41 AM PST I started to invest 2 months ago and have made around $30.00 give or take. Do I really need to file taxes on this? Or is there somewhat of a threshold when it comes to when you need to file taxes. [link] [comments] |
Which Portfolios Will Perform Best? Posted: 04 Jan 2018 06:05 AM PST 2017 was a fairly easy year to make money in the market. Though certain stocks and sectors didn't perform, if you were long developed and/or emerging market stocks, safe bonds, mid-grade bonds, high-yield, munis, gold… you probably made money. Corporate earnings grew, central banks kept policy loose, and economies expanded in sync. That leaves 2018 markets more expensive, but leaves room for optimism that a continuation of last year's steady appreciation will remain in effect. We hand picked some of the strategies that we think might perform well this year, check them out here: https://whotrades.com/feed/4164441?showMore=1 [link] [comments] |
Looking for an ETF(s) for 2018-2019, can use an advice! Posted: 04 Jan 2018 12:28 AM PST Hi there! I'm 30 y.o., married, 1 child, employed and looking into saving some money to buy a car within next 1 or 2 years (our current old car will have some parts replaced and we hope it will be good for that period of time). Currently we hold most of our cash on a savings account; we also invest long-term in ETF's/funds. Since the cash is practically losing value while resting on the savings account, I'm thinking about allocating some of it (3000€) to my investing account and purchase ETF(s) with potential for the next 1-2 years (depending on how long the current car works) and supply it with monthly payments of 200€. I can afford to lose max. 10% and hoping to gain 20%. ETF's I'm looking into: Robo Gl Robotics and Automation (IE00BMW3QX54) cost: 0,80% SPDR MSCI EM Asia UCITS ETF (IE00B466KX20) cost: 0,55% iShares MSCI Korea UCITS ETF DIST (IE00B0M63391) cost: 0,74% What are your opinions? Any other suggestions? Which ETF's have potential for gain within next 1-2 years? [link] [comments] |
