| Posted: 04 Mar 2018 06:22 PM PST I'm selling tomorrow. Too much nonsense and the Donald keeps getting dumber. I'm taking a chance on timing the market. I don't know what other subreddit to post this in, but I sure can't be the only person going against /r/Investing standard investment philosophy. I'm wrong for doing this, but I'm not the only one.

| Posted: 04 Mar 2018 12:55 PM PST You know those moments in life where you want to raise money for a big purchase like a house in the next few years. What's a reasonably good/low-risk investment if you plan on making one of these big purchases in the next 4-5 years? I know investing in stocks like an S&P 500 index fund are great in the long-term, but there's a lot of volatility in that, especially right now. What about bonds and stocks in companies that have high dividends (At@t, Verizon, and BP have Dividends in the 4-6% range)? Any suggestions? [link] [comments]  |
| Opened Vanguard Roth IRA, should I invest for 2017 instead of 2018? Posted: 04 Mar 2018 08:03 AM PST Planning on doing $105/week to max out IRA. Should I be doing it for 2017 until it makes me contribute to 2018? Also what is the cutoff date that it stops allowing 2017 contributions? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 04 Mar 2018 08:59 PM PST I'd like to stay long term but obviously there is no guarantee from year to year if I will get my work visa renewed or qualify for a green card. Is it still worth contributing to a 401k to get the employer contributions? What about an IRA? [link] [comments]  |
| Thoughts on the funeral/death care industry? Posted: 04 Mar 2018 01:23 PM PST Looking for insight into this industry. At first glance the industry appears overlooked - around 80% of funeral homes, crematoriums, cemeteries, etc. are still mom-and-pop enterprises, the larger market share holders seem to have decent profit margins and returns on equity, and the population is getting older. This might mean that the leading companies like $CSV, $HI and $SCI have a lot of room for future growth and consolidation, yet they also might not be a good investing choice because a quick look at their financials shows that they all seem to be pretty heavily in debt. Any thoughts? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 05 Mar 2018 03:33 AM PST Forecasts says it should be down by around 1-2% by the end of this year. However, it keeps going up. I think its like how tesla performed last year. It will keep on being overvalued until it isnt. Can someone tell me if its still a good buy? Good short? I cannot understand why it keeps going up even though its overvalued whereas undervalued stocks like MC donalds keep going down (I am aware of the one dollar meal fiasco but this doesnt justify such steep undervaluation) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 04 Mar 2018 08:41 PM PST How much in yearly fees would I have to pay to like Merrill Lynch or TD Ameritrade if I wanted to start an investment account with them? I just want to hold some fairly safe stocks and mutual funds. I don't know enough about investing to manage the account myself, so I'd rather pay someone if it's not ridiculously expensive. Thanks for all the advice/knowledge. [link] [comments]  |
| 529 vs Custodial for College Savings Posted: 04 Mar 2018 08:30 PM PST I'm trying to decide on how to invest my 3 year olds money for college. I'm looking at the Trowe price 529b plan returns vs a standard S&P index fund. The target date funds for a student graduating in 2018 returned a 4% return for 3 years and 6% for 1 year. The 2021 target fund is better with 12% for 1 year and 6% for 3 year. I understand the funds have less risk the closer to college, but i'd hate to miss out on the recent returns. Looking at mutual funds and ETFs, the return rates for a year are from 15-30%. Most 3 year returns are over 9% The difference in these rates of returns makes up the difference for paying taxes and also having the flexibility of using the money for whatever they want. What are the arguments for this type of thinking? In this situation a Custodial makes sense. [link] [comments]  |
| Hedging a UK portfolio, CFDs, Options and safe havens. Posted: 05 Mar 2018 04:06 AM PST What are peoples thoughts on hedging UK portfolio's? I had little success using a CFD of an equal and opposite position, i.e short (200x leverage) 4 SPX contracts worth ~10000 gbp to hedge a long position of 10000 US equities. Always ended up getting margin called , which is fine but you have to buy another one everytime you get margin called and pull money out of the main portfolio to do so, which isn't very good for if you think it's gonna be a longer downtrend UK Options aren't really a thing, unless anyone else has seen otherwise? Safe havens are a joke right now, golds doing its own thing and cash isn't right. Thoughts or experiences anyone? [link] [comments]  |

| Same fund on two exchanges with significantly different results Posted: 05 Mar 2018 03:34 AM PST I own a bit of IVV (iShares S&P 500 index fund) as well as its equivalent ETF on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, number 1655 (also called iShares S&P 500 ETF. In the case of the latter, I purchased it because of the lower commission (my broker is Japanese) and the fact that shares are more affordable at about $20 each. What surprises me is that these funds, supposedly tracking the same index under the same brand name, don't give the same returns. For example, 1655 has returned 4% less than IVV over the past month. Since its introduction in October, it is at -0.10%, whereas IVV is 7.22% over the same time period. Is the company that manages 1655 (Blackrock) simply incompetent to obtain such poor results while tracking the same index? [link] [comments]  |

| How do you decide which ETF to buy? Posted: 05 Mar 2018 02:49 AM PST I want to buy an ETF and just hold it for 10 years+ but so far in my research, I cannot seem to see a way to differentiate which ETF are better. For example, IVV vs VTI vs QQQ, how would you know which will perform better in a 10 years period? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 05 Mar 2018 02:48 AM PST i am 17 this year and just inherited 50k. i would like to learn more about doing stocks and hopefully start investing when i am of legal age. i would probably start with using 25k and open an individual account in InteractiveBrokers. Any place where i can learn about the stock market, also any helpful guides and tips from brokers or people doing stocks? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 05 Mar 2018 02:38 AM PST Everyone is caught up with the cryptocurrency 'gold rush', but I haven't seen many discussions about the more long-term (an and in my opinion, more exciting) investment opportunities in blockchain technology. We know it's set to drastically disrupt industries like banking and energy in the next 5-10 years, but many of the companies currently developing these innovations are start-ups or small private companies. How does the average investor (not a finance professional or HNI individual) get exposure to this space when publicly-traded companies solely focused on blockchain don't exist yet? Am I limited to big blue chips like IBM, Microsoft and Barclays who are integrating and funding the technology, and ETFs made up the same companies (but selling at a premium)? Or are there other less-obvious opportunities out there? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 04 Mar 2018 05:50 PM PST Anyone here ever use Race Options and actually have a successful withdrawal? The "fast money" of these binary options sites has always been alluring. But very few of them are regulated from what ive seen and their presentation just feels scammy. Race Options is a little less suspect at a glance and claims to be regulated. Tbh I have my concerns that even if "regulated" they may still be able to pull BS because I dont think the company that owns the site is US based. So I figured id ask around first. I dont recall seeing posts about Binary Options here before but this sub is probably a safer place to ask than r/WallStreetBets lol [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 04 Mar 2018 03:07 PM PST Hi, new to investing here and had a quick question. I currently have a Vanguard retirement account setup and I have also started buying a few stocks through Robinhood. I was looking at buying some stocks and possibly some bonds at a 90/10 ratio and was wondering is it redundant to buy that way since I already have a retirement account in place or should I invest differently? I don't mind a higher risk investment. Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| “Acorns” app... is it worth it or are my gains being poached? Posted: 04 Mar 2018 11:39 AM PST I have recently signed up for an acorns account. It's pretty much a piggy bank linked to your debit card that is invested into portfolios that meet your risk sensitivity and time horizon. I like the idea of the modern day piggy bank, but is this really a good deal? It's a $1 a month fee for them and they invest in what looks like vanguard funds (VOO, VB, VEA, VWO, VNQ) and bonds - LQD, SHY. My question is if after fees from acorns and the ETFs, am I even making any money? Or am I just paying to have a virtual piggy bank? Does anybody use this app and can elaborate a little more? Or anybody else who thinks it may just be a bad investment? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 05 Mar 2018 02:11 AM PST I know to some of you it isn't much money, but for me it is. I bought the shares Friday and was shocked when the markets ended green. I hope $SPY dips for just the day, enough for me to sell. Proof: https://www.reddit.com/user/q-oo-p/comments/824xt5/my_portfolio_100_sds/?st=JEE2BL1F&sh=2c86fdef [link] [comments]  |
| Risks of using leverage in a long-term, diversified portfolio? Posted: 04 Mar 2018 01:11 PM PST If I hold I diversified portfolio of low cost index ETFs (mostly Vanguard funds), what are the risks of leveraging by 1.5x or 1.75x through margin loan offered by my broker (Interactive Brokers) and more or less maintaining this leverage for the long term? Edit: I am aware of the risks inherent to investing on margin. By keeping leverage in the 1.5x to 1.75x range, I maintain a substantial equity buffer to weather even the most severe market downturns. If I have no plans to draw on the money in the account for the long term, what reasons would make leveraging for a substantially long time a bad idea (assuming I have the stomach to handle seeing a significant portion of my equity wiped out when the market goes bad)? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 05 Mar 2018 01:05 AM PST Looks like this utility has been getting beat up the last few months and is nearing Hilary Swank hotness territory. Any idea why investors are spooked on it? They have a lot of debt but the earnings look good and the company seems so entrenched in NYC that I don't really see it going anywhere. What're your thoughts on it? With valuations so high this company is definitely on my radar. Full disclosure: I own no shares currently. [link] [comments]  |
