Gary Cohn to Resign as Trump’s Top Economic Adviser Posted: 06 Mar 2018 02:35 PM PST Gary D. Cohn, President Trump's top economic adviser, plans to resign, becoming the latest in a series of high-profile departures from the Trump administration, White House officials said on Tuesday. The officials insisted there was no single factor behind the departure of Mr. Cohn, who heads the National Economic Council. But his decision to leave came after he seemed poised to lose an internal struggle amid a Wild West-style process over Mr. Trump's plan to impose large tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. "Gary has been my chief economic adviser and did a superb job in driving our agenda, helping to deliver historic tax cuts and reforms and unleashing the American economy once again," Mr. Trump said in a statement to The New York Times. "He is a rare talent, and I thank him for his dedicated service to the American people." Mr. Cohn is expected to leave in the coming weeks. He will join a string of recent departures by senior White House officials, including Mr. Trump's communications director and a powerful staff secretary. Yet the departure of Mr. Cohn, a free-trade oriented Democrat who fended off a number of nationalist-minded policies during his year in the Trump administration, could have a ripple effect on the president's economic decisions and on the financial sector. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/06/us/politics/gary-cohn-resigns.html [link] [comments] |

I wonder how much does it cost for an inventory of frozen beef vs fresh one? That's including the fact that you only have so many days to use the fresh one before it goes bad, while frozen ones are good for months. And how much would it actually boost sales? I'm not sure if it's going to have the same allure as the "all day breakfast" option that they rolled out. I am also concerned about the fierce competition that McDonald is going up against. The sit-down chain restaurants such as Red Lobster and Applebees have been getting their heads bashed in by new competition and shifting consumers' preferences. I'm personally indifferent because I can't tell the difference between good and "meh" meat (unless if it's been turned into a hockey pluck or someone microwaved it cough Applebees cough), or conventional eggs vs "organic, actually free range". I am aware of Wendy's bashing MCD with their advertisements over the past few weeks though. [link] [comments] |

Best stocks for a trade war environment Posted: 06 Mar 2018 05:17 PM PST Might as well start the conversation now. I'm thinking utilities and telecoms would be safe havens, but then again, those sectors are sensitive to inflation, which could very well pick up during a trade war. Thoughts? [link] [comments] |
Netflix is worth more than GE or Ford, and it’s creeping up on Disney Posted: 07 Mar 2018 02:45 AM PST Full source: https://www.recode.net/2018/3/6/17086244/netflix-worth-more-market-cap-chart-2017-ge-general-electric-ford-disney? utm_campaign=recode.social&utm_content=recode&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter Am I the only one finding this absolutely mental? I get that Netflix have interesting prospects, but being valued more than the entire Disney company, which has the strongest IPs the world has ever known, parks, consumer products etc. and clearly a hand in doing something on-demand.

How to buy Spotify and Dropbox pre-IPO Posted: 07 Mar 2018 02:34 AM PST GSVC invests in private companies. 23% of NAV in these 2 companies. The stock is trading at a discount to its NAV. GSVC gives you exposure to SPOT and DBX that are expected to list this month. https://fatalpha.com/how-to-buy-spotify-and-dropbox-pre-ipo/ [link] [comments] |

Bond prices move up when stocks go down? Posted: 07 Mar 2018 01:26 AM PST Hey all, I've been researching more into the stock market and alot of articles I've read say that bond prices move up when stocks go down. But looking at total bond etfs like vanguard's BND, over the last few months during the correction, it seems that bond prices have moved DOWN with stocks. The same correlation can be foudn going back to 2008 as well. So what gives? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 06 Mar 2018 02:07 PM PST This article fundamentally addresses the issue of ROI (or lack thereof) of digital ad spend. I suspect in a recessionary backdrop FB and GOOGL fall harder than market anticipates. http://www.adweek.com/brand-marketing/when-procter-gamble-cut-200-million-in-digital-ad-spend-its-marketing-became-10-more-effective/ [link] [comments] |
Are stock splits becoming more uncommon? Posted: 06 Mar 2018 12:40 PM PST I was just digging through some stocks I own and looking at their split/dividend history and have noticed that stock splits have appeared to be far less common after 2000. Is this a trend among companies, or more of an exception in the few examples I've looked at? (MMM) (PFE) (PG) (KMB) [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Mar 2018 04:56 PM PST I understand the difference between IPO and DPO, and with regards to Spotify it seems like they're going with DPO. Is there any advantage over one or another? And why did Spotify choose DPO? Is it because they're not confident enough for IPO? [link] [comments] |
CVS Starts Jumbo Debt Sale to Fund $68 Billion Aetna Deal Posted: 06 Mar 2018 06:55 AM PST
TLDR: CVS is taking on lots of debt to acquire Aetna. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Mar 2018 05:42 AM PST What do you guys think about Boeing's use of "program accounting?" It just seems really aggressive to me because it relies so heavily on estimates (e.g., future plane sales, future profit margins, etc.). Also their pension is $20 billion underfunded and they have been funding it with their own treasury stock. I am sure management and their auditors know what they are doing. But maybe investors don't really understand the risks they are taking on because the stock has doubled in the past year. I would think that any reduction in plane backlog for (e.g., China announcing they will give a preference to Airbus in future orders) would significantly hurt Boeing. Edit: It looks like they have $52 billion of these deferred costs. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Mar 2018 03:35 PM PST Is anyone investing in Africa, specifically central Africa? It seems like a place with tons of natural resources like Cobalt, so I think that despite the risks of the governments, unstable currency, etc, that it might be worth it to invest some companies there. Edit: originally inspired by Jim Roger's The Investment Biker but with The Morning Bree mentioning Africa's cobalt supply I thought I'd ask. [link] [comments] |
How much of a dip is enough for buying today? Posted: 07 Mar 2018 02:27 AM PST Should I grab things at the opening or will stocks continue to sell off into the late morning? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Mar 2018 09:19 PM PST Hi guys, I live in the UK and by just checking the interest rates on savings accounts and bonds, they don't look very inspiring. Is it possible to invest into some other countries banks like Bangladesh without having a passport in your possession? Thank you in advance. [link] [comments] |
How much emphasis should you place on stock forecasts? Posted: 06 Mar 2018 08:42 PM PST I was contemplating buying NVDA, CHDN, and NFLX, but the forecasts aren't that great, and particularly NVDA has a horrible one, like I could lose a LOT of $ with the low forecast. CRBP and PLAY have good forecasts and I reduced my stake in PLAY and didn't buy as much CRBP as it was suggested I buy. I am considering selling my APTV and just bulking up on that. I might shed some of my EA stock too, dunno. BA also looks like it still has room to grow? Thoughts on all this? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 06 Mar 2018 11:02 AM PST Why is US Steel still going down after the tariff announcement? It seems like that would make the stock skyrocket. [link] [comments] |
