    Stock Market - With the market volatile and at or near all time highs I'm thinking I might need some bonds in case of a large pullback any advice on a fund or etf specializing in these that would be good?

    $KR took a massive hit this morning, but I feel like it's a good long to pick up once it bottoms.

    Posted: 08 Mar 2018 08:24 AM PST

    The company showed a 19% earnings per share growth in the fourth quarter, and that matched analysts' expectations. However, the 2018 profit outlook was lower than expected, driving down its stock.

    Could this be artificial?

    They saw sales up 2.7% from last year's shared quarter, and there is no strong indication of a shift this year.

    Kroger has a balanced approach to using the tax cuts, breaking it into thirds and disseminating it nearly equally between pushing the company forward into a high tech era by optimizing store space, and another third going to the employees--because we can't expect folks to work the store for free. The third...third, ahem-excuse me, is going to, "helping share holders," or possibly dividend payouts. Sure this isn't extremely complicated, but that's the joy and beauty of the way $KR operates.


    Speculation time:

    Whatever they have extra from the $200M, after literally just moving things around in the stores, could be posted to lift them above their already arbitrarily set conservative 2018 earnings outlook.

    That said, I could be wrong, and perhaps they just shilled together a plan for something to say during the earnings report.

    To me it seems like they have a good model, and a safe outlook could potentially poise them to show out as opposed to flop. Like, they came to the fair on Tuesday to scope it out, but they will be back Friday, on bracelet night, and have a massively good time.

    Any other thoughts?

    Edit: I think they just need to pay someone to review what Schlotman, their CFO, wants to say. If he'd framed it differently maybe they'd not eat dirt every six months.

    Also I added some stuff in the sources area

    Disclosures: I don't hold this, but I might in the future--especially if it keeps this up!

    Newbie question: when you want to buy a stock for a long term investment, do you put in a limit order or just market order? Limit orders can be frustrating.

    Posted: 08 Mar 2018 12:28 PM PST

    I always put in a limit order for 1% less than it's current value, especially if its shot up recently. Sometimes 2 or 3% if it really took off recently.

    Sometimes it works. Sometimes it's so frustrating cause you just watch the stock take off moving further away from your limit order.

    Portfolio stock tracker recommendation?

    Posted: 08 Mar 2018 02:00 PM PST

    Hi everyone!

    Can you recommend a free or reasonably priced portfolio tracker usable for a single person and/or small group?

    It would be nice if we were able to save our transactions and could get some insights into our stocks. Self hosted is a big plus because of privacy, but isn't necessery.

    Thanks to everyone!

    Buying General Electric

    Posted: 08 Mar 2018 03:37 PM PST

    I found that GE is at a very low right now and had a strong Q4 in 2017. I'm thinking of buying now, but afraid of their sector for power. It is a tough market for gas prices and I am worried that is what is going to pull them further. In their other sectors, they have really high healthcare and aviation.

    I am very new to stocks so please help!

    Quick question on dealing with extra funds

    Posted: 08 Mar 2018 01:58 PM PST

    I usually add to my buying power every other week, however after purchasing the stocks I've been looking at I am left with ~30. Would you recommend I hold that money until my next deposit, or put it into some cheaper stocks (I've been looking at 22nd/Zynga)
