| Posted: 03 Jun 2018 03:28 PM PDT Last valued at $2 billion in 2015, estimated value around $5 billion today. Any ideas on how this will impact MSFT price, if at all? [link] [comments]  |
| Apple is about to bring back home 250 billion dollars in foreign cash Posted: 03 Jun 2018 02:59 PM PDT Can anyone tell if it's reported on the last balance sheet? I can't see a line with ~250B in the asset part. Is it not reported? [link] [comments]  |
| Books To Learn About The Economy and Investing Posted: 03 Jun 2018 11:49 PM PDT I'm looking to scratch the tip of the iceberg here. Little background: I have a college degree that's not in business. I own a successful small business that gives me financial independence. I invest and have some basic understanding about things like ETFs, cryptocurrency, target date retirement funds, and some understanding of the way markets behave (if there's such a thing as understanding). But I'm a beginner in every way. I saw "The Big Short" and became enamored with understanding the housing market and housing crisis of 2008, as well as other stock market crashes. I want to learn much, much more. So the question is this: How does a person who doesn't want to go back to college full-time learn about basics of economics and investing? Specifically, my end game is to understand the relationship between the market and various securities (so yes, understanding everything discussed in The Big Short because my head starts spinning when I learned about bonds, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt, etc). I also want to understand the basic workings of economic markets. I want to "get" why some stocks rise and fall, how to identify trends (while they're happening), how to speak intelligently about emerging markets, the tech sector, understanding commodities, etc. I want to be able to better understand macroeconomy, especially as it relates to the available securities for trade on the public market as well as foreign currency exchange rates and how that relationship works. I know I'm asking for what amounts to an advanced degree and asking for advice on topics you can probably NEVER truly master. I'm just looking for where to start. I thought about going back for my MBA, but my hunch is that the cost of getting an MBA is only valuable if you plan on using it to get a high paying job. And I have no interest in that. I looked at doing some free online courses (places like MIT love showing off their non-credit courses) but listening to an hour long recording when I know I could read a couple chapters of a book seems like a waste of time. That leaves popular books on Amazon (many of which seem very opinion-based and niche), or just straight-up buying a textbook on Micro or Macroeconomics and studying from there. Lots of options, most of them are probably viable, but I really wanted to see what some smart people such as yourselves may suggest. [link] [comments]  |
| How important is it to have tax efficient accounts for long term trading? Posted: 04 Jun 2018 01:37 AM PDT I'm having to use degiro to buy international stock from the UK, it's quite a small sum (less than 3k dollars/ 2k pounds). I'm not expecting to sell for a while and I don't have an expected income for next year so Is it worth moving my money to a tax efficient account before buying the stock? (would probably result in higher trading fees). Another thing I don't understand is that there's a tax free allowance on capital gains of 11k, does this exclude the 11k income tax free that you're allowed every year? [link] [comments]  |
| Understanding transaction costs brokers (Europe) Posted: 04 Jun 2018 01:21 AM PDT Hi all, thanks for having me. I'm new to investing and having some trouble understanding the transaction costs using brokers, especially their diffrences. Popular brokers in my country are Keytrade or Binckbank, both trading at a cost of 7,5 EUR for European Markets and 30 DOLLAR for American Markets. If I'd do a monthly transaction of 500, would I pay 30 dollar each every month (ending up in 360 dollars a year only in transaction costs, excl. taxes, product costs (ETF's),...). For a small investor that seems like a high barrier to cross... I've looked at DEGIRO and the total costs there would be around 50 dollar a year. That's cheap, but seems sketchy as well. How to start investing and finding a reliable broker? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 04 Jun 2018 03:05 AM PDT As seen that in Europe there will be probably a crisis due to the Deutche Bank failiure... would it be a good choise to buy YEN against EUR? [link] [comments]  |
| Is it possible to trade USA stocks from a different country Posted: 04 Jun 2018 02:52 AM PDT Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question. I'm 16 from New Zealand interested in getting started but not too sure of any good online brokers that'll allow me to trade from NZ [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 03 Jun 2018 09:40 PM PDT It's a weird set of questions, and excuse me if I'm breaking any rules or sounding dumb but I just don't want to make any mistakes. I'm a canadian dividends paying stock investor who has a decently sized portfolio of large cap companies who've been paying dividends for a minimum of 10 years, increasing annually. My goal is passive income through all my assets. I was made aware that I'm too exposed to a market crash should it happen, and that I should invest in Bonds and ETFs aswell Now before I go into this world: 1) is there much of a difference between Bonds & ETFs? Google gives me mixed results. Some act as if bonds are different then ETFs, some say they are the same thing and now I'm all over the place 2) Isn't ETFs as vulnerable to market crashes as stocks? 3) Correct me if I'm wrong, but these are not mutual funds, right? Thanks, folks. [link] [comments]  |
| Value and Momentum factor decompositions Posted: 03 Jun 2018 02:01 PM PDT http://osam.com/Commentary/factors-from-scratch Shows the performance contribution of underlying fundamentals and market valuation to portfolios of value stock, glamour stocks, recent winners, and recent losers. Value: They find that value stocks do have deteriorating fundamentals, losing 16.8% EPS average during a 1 year rebalancing period. The stocks should have been priced at a 40% P/E discount relative to the market to account for the coming deterioration but were priced at a 50% discount instead. The subsequent reversion to fair prices more than overcomes the EPS losses. They don't see evidence of value being arbitraged away, as value stocks still trade at significant discounts. They suspect recent underperformance has been due to uncharacteristic weakness in value stocks compared to the strength in growth stocks. That should be written down as a permanent loss for the strategy, not a coiling of the spring that will lead to especially strong future outperformance. Momentum: Portfolios of recent winners have the opposite features of value - they generate strong EPS growth (better than 4th quintile P/E companies but they avoided discussing top quintile because they often have negative EPS) and trade at premiums that are 10% above what would be justified by that growth. However, they tend to become even more expensive for the first year to 19% overvalued. Momentum captures a divergence away from fair value while Value captures a convergence back to fair value. Then after the first year momentum stocks start falling in valuation back towards fair value and would generate underperformance if the strategy didn't rebalance. (They didn't dive much into a portfolio of 1-2 year lagged losers, which I suspect based on their momentum findings would work as a good pseudo-value factor.) Relative value had absolutely no relationship with future momentum strategy returns. *pseudonym of the philosphicaleconomics author [link] [comments]  |
| ELI5: the role of a market maker Posted: 03 Jun 2018 09:01 AM PDT Per investopedia:
I know a member firm is an SRO and member of at least one major stock exchange, but what exactly does it mean to display prices in an exchange for people to buy/sell? Do they basically decide how much a stock is worth? And what are the differences between its own account (in regards to principal trades) and customer accounts (agency trades). Basically do market makers have complete control over how much each stock is worth? edit: now I'm more confused. I just learned that the prices of stocks are determined via an auction method (highest pay/lowest sell) so then how can market makers adjust quotes for buying/selling stock? [link] [comments]  |

| Trsding options has a 5 year cool down? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 08:07 PM PDT Some bullshit scammer said to trade options intensively (with bull and bear spreads, etc) there needs to be s 5 year cool down period that brokers will give you before you can do so in the US msrket. Is this true to any extent? [link] [comments]  |
| does anyone follow Ubiquiti Networks? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 03:13 PM PDT Title says it all. Polarizing company run by NBA team owner Robert Pera. He runs an unconventional business to say the least. Curious to hear everyone's thoughts. Full disclosure I have owned some shares in them since 2012. [link] [comments]  |
| Best tax exempt mutual funds VNJTX vs. VWAHX Posted: 03 Jun 2018 06:41 PM PDT Hi I'm looking to invest 3000 dollars into a tax exempt bond fund in my vanguard account. VWAHX seems to have the highest return but I live in NJ and wondering if NJ tax exempt muni fund VNJTX is a better option for me? My tax bracket is 25% [link] [comments]  |
| Anyone going to grab a slice of the YQ ipo this week? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 06:41 PM PDT I normally wait until the dust settles with IPOs before buying if I like the prospects. I wasnt interested in Spotify but $YQ has me intrigued. The company is growing pretty fast on the revenue side. First quarter was around $38M in revenue and the company has invested in good tech engineers and seems to have potential to carve a nice niche. Here's the details: https://www.nasdaq.com/markets/ipos/company/m17-entertainment-ltd-1053476-86852 I bought some IQ last week but probably waited to long. I might take a shot on this one right as it goes public. I'll start out with a short term exit strategy but I have a hunch this one might have a decent run over the next 6-12 months. Curious to what others know about the potential of this company. I like their niche with streaming live music and YQ will be using the ipo proceeds to penetrate into other markets like Japan. IPOs are always a bit of a coin flip but I like this particular one. [link] [comments]  |
| Best world consumer staples etf? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 09:56 AM PDT Hi guys, looking for a world consumer staples etf, if possible with Nestle being the biggest or one of the biggest positions of the etf. I've just seen USA and Europe etf, but not a global one. Want to use it as a hedge agains inflation and a bear market/recession (I know that it'll suffer in a bear market, but I think not as much as other companies/etf I own and its recovery will be faster than others). Any idea? [link] [comments]  |

| Companies to invest in that do construction in Syria Posted: 03 Jun 2018 05:17 PM PDT The greater risk the greater reward... I'm looking to invest in companies that would likely reconstruct large cities in places like Aleppo. I can only imagine the amount of work needed to reconstruct half of a large city. Thanks.

| If you had 100k with a high(ish) risk tolerance...what stocks would you invest in? Posted: 03 Jun 2018 05:04 PM PDT Purely conversational as I already do a ton of my own research and investing. Spend my 100k on a stock or two with a potential 1 year two bagger in it and tell me why your stock is a good choice. For me: VMW, MU(maybe: still need to research more), BABA, and BIDU Yes, options are a better potential rate of return. Not looking at those at the moment. [link] [comments]  |
