| Posted: 03 Feb 2018 12:37 PM PST This article does a great job of tackling what is the blockchain. This is about a month old, however very relevant. The price of the various cryptocurrencies (more formally known as "cryptographically secured digital assets" which don't all behave like currencies at all) is mainly that which we see rather than the underlying tech we want to see.

| Explain the chain: from brokers to companies. What exactly happens when you buy a share? Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:41 AM PST Dear friends, I am a math college student who got approached by a recruiter asking if I was interested in a job at a trading firm. I studied about the stockmarket and economics in general for 3 weeks to prepare for the interview. I didn't get the job, mainly because I had no clue how to answer this question: Can't you just call Microsoft and tell them you want to buy their shares over the phone? Or if you are trading on the secondary market, can't you just call the exchange and place an order? Why do we need brokers? What do they exactly do and why can't you do it without them? Explain as detailed as possible what happens when you buy a share. What "chain reaction" happens after you press buy? I searched on the internet, but couldn't really find a very detailed answer (but perhaps I am not using the correct search queries, since I am not a native English speaker). I would say the main question is what "chain reaction" happens after you press buy? Or name and explain all the steps needed to buy or sell a stock. Name all components and explain why they are needed. Update: People, don't get confused. The primary market is where securities are created (by means of an IPO) and at the secondary market investors trade previously-issued securities without the involvement of the issuing-companies.

| Anyone know of software to track ALL aspects of my portfolio? Posted: 04 Feb 2018 12:47 AM PST I've been looking for an app or website that allows me to track all my finances. Bank account balances, credit card debits, stock portfolio, crypto holdings, etc. I know there is Mint but it doesn't track everything (no crypto or some stock exchanges). Ideally I'd like something that allows me to dig into trends etc. Suggestions and pros and cons for them? [link] [comments]  |
| After maxing out Retirement Accounts, what is the best strategy for investing in Taxable accounts. Posted: 03 Feb 2018 11:33 PM PST I am finally in a financial situation where I can max out my Vanguard Roth IRA every year. The only other investment vehicle I currently have is my Charles Schwab taxable account. I currently live and work in Vietnam. As the title suggests, what is the best way to invest in my taxable account after maxing my Roth IRA. In my Roth I currently hold $VTSMX, $VGTSX and $VBMFX. Is it wrong to hold the same Schwab equivalents in my taxable account? Should I continue to invest in index funds / etfs, but in different sectors like A.I and tech? I want to make sure I have the best strategy moving forward. I am primarily investing for retirement. [link] [comments]  |

| Swapping few funds for Vnaguard Information Technology Posted: 03 Feb 2018 09:08 PM PST Regular follower of /r/investing here and have setup beginner things such as emergency fund, 401k etc. I also have a standard Boglehead portfolio in Vanguard and a Roth IRA. I now have the following doubt :
Specifally inclined towards VGT cause its doing well and I expect it to continue. I already have lower risk funds such as SPY, total stock and few bonds. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Gold, was this my poorly thought out hedge? Posted: 04 Feb 2018 01:22 AM PST So over 2 years I have acquired gold and silver at a ratio of 25% relative to equities and bonds. This was to hedge my equities as well as inflation. Well now that the scenario I was not thinking about has potentially seen the early stages of traction. I am mostly referring to rising rates. I want to know from a historical perspective will gold and silver become a less favorable investment because of the lack of interest or dividend it pays relative to bonds? [link] [comments]  |
| What’s the correlation between stocks and bonds? Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:14 PM PST I understand that when interest rates go up, is both bad for stocks and bonds, so what's the advantage of holding both instruments when interests go up? I don't know why but I used to have the idea that when stocks go up, bonds go down, and viceversa, but actually researching a bit, it appears that they actually behave sometimes in the same way. Is there a real correlation between bonds and stocks? [link] [comments]  |

| Retail investors as a sign of "mania". Posted: 03 Feb 2018 11:33 AM PST I didn't want to use the term "bubble" for the recent bull run, but I've read several articles talking about how you know the stock market is in for trouble when individuals start buying. Isn't that all of us here? Why is that a bad sign? And what do these guys expect us to do--just use index funds and CDs? [link] [comments]  |

| Five American Funds that Beat the First Index Fund’s Lifetime Results Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:38 PM PST Five American Funds that Beat the First Index Fund's Lifetime Results I understand this subs basic sentiment for simplicity, however, why would anyone not opt for the active fund in their qualified accounts? American Funds are pretty close to index funds at this point I suppose. Though, American Funds does lack small cap. [link] [comments]  |
| Is the stock market a good idea to make profit with few bucks ? Posted: 04 Feb 2018 02:20 AM PST Hi, I start a new thread about a question I asked in another one : I would like to know if its possible to make profit in the long term with a little amount of money in the stock market, or if "I need money to make money", because investing so little money wont be worth (Like $10 won after 2 years, wow !). I just know that one way to do it is threw options, but its very risky and its requires years of learning, right ? If its possible, how much time do I need to spend learning ? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:28 PM PST So the market had a tough week and an especially tough day Friday, but I have never seen so much freaking out in my life. If you look back at relatively recent market history you see that the market has an average of 14% intra-year pullback since 1980. Some years were much worse obviously and a few years were much less severe (chiefly 2017). But the point remains that market volatility is normal, and a lot more severe than what we are experiencing now. If you have just started investing since 2008-09, you might be in for a rude awakening when true volatility returns. Prepare emotionally to be ice cold about it and not make stupid, rash decisions. Last week doesn't mean we are in the throes of recession, and it doesn't mean the market is crashing, and it doesn't mean you have to reinvent your portfolio (unless you were already invested poorly). Take a breath, look at history for context, and remember that when this thing does fall significantly, it will be on sale for all of us who aren't panicking. Hope you'll be there buying instead of stuffing what's left of your money (after selling low) in your fallout shelter. [link] [comments]  |
| Is it a bad idea to be hedging with US Treasuries (TLT)? Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:02 PM PST I used a ~ 70% stock 30% bond allocation, but I put most of that 30% in TLT. I figured that since I found the markets a bit too high for my preference, the TLT would pay off well and somewhat offset the decrease in stocks, should some major event bring stocks down (and before that, it would pay a somewhat decent 2.5% yield). What I overlooked is that this going to hurt in a rising rate environment. Should I be using something else to hedge the stocks in my portfolio? What I'm worried about is the market falling and because rates are rising, TLT would be falling as well and I end up taking a double punch. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 03 Feb 2018 05:25 PM PST Been investing for a short time and it's really getting to me that I don't fully understand what goes into determining the price of a company/stock. Barring the economics of it (supply+demand/social psychology) I was wondering if anyone would shed light on what fundamental or technical characteristics are most prevalent when it comes to valuation. Also my first post, not too sure how Reddit works just yet so sorry if this offends anyone. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
