| China has seized control of the indebted conglomerate Anbang Group, a 120 + billion dollar company. Posted: 22 Feb 2018 08:57 PM PST See the New York Times Story Here So last week, I wrote a post about another massive Chinese conglomerate having major issues with debt, HNA group. Well, HNA group wasn't the only massive conglomerate having issues - Anbang was also having some major issues as well, even earlier than HNA - see post here. Some would argue that this is political, and it probably is at least a little bit. With that said, their main issue was massive debt, which many Chinese companies have taken on a crippling amount of. Just speculating here, but this seems to me like a pre-emptive action by the Chinese government to try to hold this back from affecting the markets in China in a larger way. Will this work? Who knows, I would say it's probably just kicking the can down the road in that instance, but hard to say. It will be interesting to see if they start selling off assets similar to what HNA is doing right now. Others are speculating this could be the first domino to topple in a potential financial crisis in China. I'm curious to see how this affects Chinese markets. As of 12:45 eastern time, the markets don't seem to be reacting to this too much, so perhaps they see it as a good sign that the gov't is trying to reign in risks. Edit: it seems Anbang most recently had over 300 billion $ of assets, not 120. [link] [comments]  |
| Wealthfront adding Risk Parity for a fee. Posted: 22 Feb 2018 12:40 PM PST So Wealthfront is opting everyone into a new product they are getting from Bridgewater Associates called Risk Parity. "Pioneered by Bridgewater Associates, the largest hedge fund in the world, risk parity investment strategies are predominantly available to institutional investors (e.g., endowments, pensions, insurance companies, etc.). By balancing your risk more intelligently, Risk Parity aims to increase your after fee risk-adjusted returns in a wide range of market environments." I could opt out. It would add 8 basis points in overall fees to their investments (which I've been happy with.) Haven't seen any chatter about it yet. [link] [comments]  |
| Why do online brokers charge so much for Mutual fund purchases? Posted: 22 Feb 2018 04:04 PM PST I was comparing different brokers. for example fidelity charges 50$ just to purchase a mutual fund. why? [link] [comments]  |
| Home Sales Falling Due to High Prices and Low Supply in Housing Markets Posted: 23 Feb 2018 12:46 AM PST Thoughts? Interesting combination of factors at play here. We have record low unemployment which is a positive for home prices, not sure how much lower it can really go. Wages should be under more pressure to increase but who knows if it will materialize. We also have rising interest rates which is a negative. There is also low housing supply which is a positive for prices. I think it will stall out the records high increases we've been seeing in housing recently. In terms future prices what is your prediction? My prediction: I don't think there is much more steam to be had from this economy. The market can continue to move gradually higher but eventually a peak will be reached followed by a decline. Unemployment will rise which will force people out of their homes and will increase supply to the point where home prices will have to retreat to a more sensible level. The catalyst for the decline will be rising interest rates and declines in consumer spending. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Feb 2018 09:56 PM PST We went over this in my finance course today. Apparently, closed-end funds (CEFs) always issue at a premium, but almost certainly they will dip to a value below the value of its components (i.e. trade at a discount to net asset value). If you wanted to make "free" money off this, couldn't you just short newly issued CEFs and buy their underlying components? That way you're hedged against broad market movements but also have profit opportunity. [link] [comments]  |

| Question about my game plan for the next year/couple of years Posted: 22 Feb 2018 11:11 PM PST My question is quite simple. I have exactly $1600 to invest at the moment, but am able to add around 100-150 every two weeks. I absolutely don't need this money, and I'm truly not worried about the gains I get until much later. The game plan that interested me was putting my first $1600 towards 8-10 long term stocks after a lot of research on each, and put the money I receive from my work into a combination of $BOTZ, $QQQ, and $VT. Assuming most people would refer me to put it towards etfs, I would like to make the individual stocks I pick kind of like individual lessons, and after a year see what I did right/wrong and how I could improve. I think this would be best if I'm to pick individual stocks in my portfolio later in life, but what is your all's thoughts and opinions? [link] [comments]  |
| What is your "shoe shiner moment"? Posted: 22 Feb 2018 09:38 AM PST When you just felt it's time to unload the boat because the bubble is about to pop. Mine was 2 months ago when my building's realtor randomly asked me on the elevator how to buy bitcoins, without even knowing that I own them, just because I work in tech. Sold my Bitcoins that week and haven't looked back. [link] [comments]  |
| College student, first time investor. Posted: 23 Feb 2018 02:34 AM PST Hello! I'm an 18 year old college student looking to invest my financial aid refund money. I have $2500 to invest. I really have no clue where to start. stocks? A growth account? I got no clue, just trying to see my options. I was going to put the money into a growth account that came with my bank account but the interest rate and APY both say 0.05%. Thats like 1 dollar a year. This isn't for retirement or anything, just something to grow for the next 5-10-15 years, depending on how it goes. Any advice appreciated. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 23 Feb 2018 02:27 AM PST So here is a simple scenario. A stock is currently at $1.00 per share. Sometimes the stock goes up to $2.00. let's say I buy 100 shares and the next day the stock price goes down to $0.50. Does that mean I have lost my money for good? Or could I just hold onto those 100 shares I bought and hope that it goes back to at least $1.00 or more so I can break even or even profit? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Feb 2018 12:30 PM PST Basically he's in the area, and as I've been doing some research of my own into their services as compared to other contenders out there like Wealthfront and Betterment, I was going to see about putting together some good questions to hit him with. One particularly is why I don't buy his cost-benefit analysis of cash and why, when I'm setting up a roboinvesting plan that is aimed to be very aggressive, the account keeps any cash at all unallocated. If you want anything asked, just drop it below. [link] [comments]  |
| Any way to fix this dumb mistake without a penalty? Posted: 22 Feb 2018 08:33 PM PST I mistakenly bought into a mutual fund with my general investment account at Schwab, not my tax-deferred IRA. I didn't figure it out until today when the transaction went through. For tax purposes I don't want to hold onto the mutual fund in my general investing account. Is there any way to transfer it to my IRA and trading the cash out? That is, essentially selling it to myself? Or do I have to sell the mutual fund shares, eat the short-term redemption fee, and the re-buy them with my IRA? On a related note, how can I find out the fund's short-term redemption fee? Schwab says there is one. I've looked through the prospectus and can't find the info. The fund is BCHYX. [link] [comments]  |
| Blockchain; Bitcoin technology thats actually usable--BLOK, KOIN, or BLCN? Posted: 22 Feb 2018 06:59 PM PST Blockchain is an infant technology that has a lot of applications beyond Bitcoin. Which ETF do you consider to have the largest potential long term? [link] [comments]  |
| Service to track changes in mutual fund holdings? Posted: 22 Feb 2018 10:05 PM PST Is there a service like WhaleWisdom.com, but for changes in mutual funds holdings via N-Q filings? I thought WhaleWisdom did that, but it seemingly doesn't, and I can find a service that does, outside of Bloomberg, et al. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Feb 2018 09:30 PM PST I bought DRYS when the stock peaked and haven't sold. Is there a good chance it'll get back to its peak value soon? [link] [comments]  |

| When a company offers stock buyback questions Posted: 22 Feb 2018 01:07 PM PST how long do average stock buybacks go on for until they reach maturity? For example a 100 million $ buyback took 1 year? 5 years? The $ amount they claim they will be using, does that number mean they have that type of cash on hand to buy whenever they want or is it also anticipating future profits? For example let's say they announced 50 million $ buyback and the market valued the company at 500 million. Could they just use it all at once since they would be getting an outstanding deal where they buyback 1/10th of their outstanding shares? Like, 10 percent, is pretty much the gold standard, right? any company would love to buyback 10 percent of their outstanding shares per year if they could. It doesn't really get any better than that? So why, buy gradually if you'd have opportunity now to just swoop up a whole 1/10 of the outstanding shares. Sorry to sound repetitive. Just hope some people understand what I'm trying to say.
