| Is it even worth investing in individual companies? Posted: 28 May 2018 08:20 PM PDT Last night I did some really thorough due diligence for the first time and looked at 10-k's of a couple companies in the solar sector. These stocks (SunRun and Vivint Solar) are both a bit undervalued in comparison to the sector, and are both trading at a relatively low price. However, after I read the risk factors I was pretty turned off by investing. Both companies seem to be going in a good direction recently, but I'm not sure if I can tolerate the risk. That said, I remember reading about Buffett's wager that any hedge fund could not beat out Buffett's SPY investment. Why should I waste my time doing DD if even the people that do this for a living can't beat the market? Why not just park 90% of my funds in VTI and 10% in bonds? [link] [comments]  |
| How does a young person with little financial knowledge get started? Posted: 28 May 2018 06:18 AM PDT I am in my 20s and already have some savings. I would like to put these to work. I'm European if this matters. I have 0 financial background. I have some but very little knowledge about the markets and investing. I know the basic differences between stock, fund, ETF, index or indicator. I somewhat know what technical analysis is and what it's for. I occasionally read investopedia when I don't know the meaning of some term. I know that investing is stock is much riskier than investing in funds, and I have been "taught" that you shouldn't invest in stock unless you really know what you're doing. I guess this is good advice I should take, as a beginner. I hear about Vanguard all the time. I'm not sure what it is (as in, Deutsche Bank is a bank, while Vanguard is a...? broker I think is the term?) In any case, as I understand it, it's some kind of financial entity that lets you invest in a diverse selection of funds. Banks also let you do this, so what's the difference? A person has shared with me their reservations about putting their money in these external entities instead of having your regular bank hold it. Have these reservations any good foundation? How safe/unsafe is Vanguard compared to banks? (a difference I can think of is that banks can be rescued by the goverment, at least this happened in my country, but brokers would just default?) I am most interested in technical analysis, not that I am familiar with other strategies other than retirement plans or low risk funds you don't need to babysit, and have tweaked with stockcharts quite some time. I just found out about Above the Green Line and it sounds pretty interesting. Is this a legit strategy or is it a pass? I do know about backtesting although I have no idea how to do it, but I guess this strategy could be tested this way? Or I could create a portfolio in Morningstar and simulate investments to test it? Is this a good idea to see if it works? I've read however, some people saying this strategy misuses technical analysis. But then why is it ranked up so high? In any case: how do I get started in this whole world? As I've said, I'm interested in technical analysis and I don't mind spending time to learn all this and to then put to use this knowledge and watch the market daily, etc (as opposed to people who would rather put it all in a fund and forget about out because they don't have time for it or simply don't want to spend it), but I don't want to be doing this 24/7 either as I have obligations as you can imagine. PS: I have checked out the sidebar FAQ. [link] [comments]  |
| Why, during most years, does the market grow (rather than shrink)? Posted: 28 May 2018 08:32 PM PDT Maybe this is a dumb question. I'll find out though. The stock market has returned, from 1950 - 2009, an average of 7% (this is the post inflation number). Why does the market rise in most years? If it were merely luck (50% chance up year, 50% down year it would look much different). What do? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 May 2018 07:44 PM PDT Hello, reddit. I am 16 years old. I currently have 10k in the bank, which I'm not able to take out until I turn 18. By the time I am 18, I want to have a plan on how to invest this money. Do any of you have some tips on what I should do? [link] [comments]  |

| How exactly is Vanguard owned by its funds? Posted: 28 May 2018 04:47 PM PDT I'm confused as to how Vanguard can be owned by its funds. I've read https://about.vanguard.com/what-sets-vanguard-apart/why-ownership-matters/ but I don't know what, "In contrast, the Vanguard funds own the management company known as Vanguard," means exactly. Any help understanding this? [link] [comments]  |

| Do serious investors invest in foreign markets Posted: 28 May 2018 11:33 AM PDT When I look at some foreign markets like China, the returns have been great for example BABA. My dad says to stay away from investing in foreign markets because it can be all smoke and mirrors and you are trusting the proforma of a company that can fudge their numbers. Is a play on China purely speculation? [link] [comments]  |

| SaaS- Thoughts on business model Posted: 28 May 2018 10:16 AM PDT Just curious to know what are everyone's thoughts on SaaS (Software as a service) business models are. They are very popular at the moment and seem to be very profitable at the same time. Is this a sustainable business model? Is is this the future for software companies? I personally, as well as several business owners I know would much rather chose a service which I can pay for out right, rather then subscribe to the software. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 28 May 2018 08:02 PM PDT Hi, I'm looking for a place where I can share and hear other people's investment ideas. I don't have many friends that are interested in investment in general, and it gets hard to find new stocks to follow out of my comfort zone. Reddit is alright, but I find the same stocks are always suggested over and over again, with little reasoning behind these suggestions. I would like to hear anyone that has found interesting people to follow, or forums for trading investment ideas. Thanks, [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 28 May 2018 03:47 PM PDT So my wife and I currently live in Germany, we are renting an apartment for the past 4 years, we pay 1000€ per month, this is more than affordable for us, we are self employed for about 3 years and this is why we chose to rent at the moment because it just feels safer at the moment than committing to a bond. We are now in a position where we can say we both feel secure with our income, and yes I know with business you never know what might happen in the future with your income etc. this is part of the risk which I'm going ask about now. We were both talking about that maybe it's time to start to buy our own house, we then started to think about what if we rather buy a house in Mauritius and just continue to rent an apartment here in Germany? The idea behind this, is not to make some profit, breaking even would be cool, but it's more about that we would have a place that we could relax in our weeks off, also a possibility that if one day we decided to retire we could relocate to Mauritius, but also in the present time be able to just rent it out to tourists etc. and get someone in Mauritius to be able to manage the house etc. The idea of renting an apartment here in Germany well paying off a house in Mauritius might sound absurd, but I think in the end, it's more about being able to break even, or even having just a bit of loss wouldn't bother us. So, super bad idea? [link] [comments]  |

| Company being investigated by a law firm Posted: 28 May 2018 04:35 PM PDT I've been investing/trading for a while now but haven't come across this before. I noticed today that there was a news article saying Cambium Learning Group ($ABCD) is being investigated by Kaskela Law LLC on behalf of stockholders. https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180525005412/en/ What does that mean? There is very limited information and everything just keeps telling me that I need to contact the law firm to get more details. Is this something that I should do? I don't own a lot of stock in the company and I don't plan on holding it for more than a year. [link] [comments]  |
