Are free trading platforms going to cause a more significant slides/explosions? Posted: 01 Aug 2018 08:29 AM PDT My understanding is that one of the factors mitigating fast and large slides and explosions in the general market and specific stocks has been the costs associated with performing transactions. Now that there are apps that charge no fees for transactions, like Robinhood, does this mean the overall investor base will have more of an incentive to pull its money out when a stock/the market starts sliding and more of an incentive to move its money around it sees a position (that it doesn't already own) starting to go up? Are these effects negligible, am I thinking about it the wrong way, or is this actually something to worry about? [link] [comments] |
Fed Leaves Key Rate Unchanged With Economy at ‘Strong Rate’ Posted: 01 Aug 2018 12:36 PM PDT Federal Reserve officials left U.S. interest rates unchanged and stuck with a plan to gradually lift borrowing costs amid "strong" growth that backs bets for a move in September. Economic activity has been "rising at a strong rate," and unemployment "has stayed low," the Federal Open Market Committee said Wednesday in a statement released in Washington. "Household spending and business fixed investment have grown strongly." While leaving rates on hold as expected, the committee said it expects that "further gradual increases in the target range for the federal funds rate" would be consistent with a strong labor market and keeping inflation near the FOMC's 2 percent objective, repeating language from its June statement. Stocks and bonds were little changed after the announcement, with the Standard & Poor's 500 Index down about 0.1 percent and the 10-year Treasury yield at 3 percent at 3:16 p.m. New York time. Odds for a rate hike at the central bank's Sept. 25-26 meeting held around 80 percent. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell is trying to nurture the second longest U.S. expansion on record by slowly reducing the amount of support that monetary policy provides to growth. The economy is riding a tailwind from tax cuts and higher federal spending, though a trade war threatens to dent growth. The committee described risks to the outlook as "roughly balanced," and restated that "monetary policy remains accommodative" while leaving the target range for its benchmark policy rate at 1.75 percent to 2 percent. "There's a lot of concern that the trade negotiations and the heightened rhetoric surrounding trade negotiations might lead to slower economic activity later in the year," said Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo Securities LLC in Charlotte, North Carolina. "While it certainly looks like it's all systems are go for another rate hike in September, and another one in December, the text hasn't been written just yet on that." President Donald Trump lashed out at the Fed last month, saying he wasn't "thrilled" it was raising rates. The comments threw a political cloud over the central bank's decisions, though economists and investors had widely anticipated Wednesday's decision to leave rates unchanged. Most Fed officials in June projected three or four rate hikes for 2018, implying one or two more moves this year. Policy makers weighed their action against a generally positive backdrop. The U.S. economy grew at a 4.1 percent pace in the second quarter, its fastest pace since 2014. Inflation is close to the Fed's 2 percent goal, rising at 2.2 percent for the year ending June, while the core rate that excludes food and energy was up 1.9 percent. The committee noted in the statement that both headline and core inflation "remain near 2 percent." Unemployment was 4 percent in June, below the Fed's 4.5 percent estimate of the level that reflects full employment. The gradual pace of rate increases shows that officials want to see if tight labor markets can continue to draw more people into the workforce and produce higher wages, without sparking unwanted inflation. Wednesday's decision was unanimous 8-0. Voting members shifted chairs at this meeting, with John Williams voting for the first time as New York Fed president and FOMC vice chairman, with Kansas City Fed chief Esther George taking his place as an alternate for San Francisco while it seeks a new president.

Posted: 01 Aug 2018 05:16 AM PDT I'm still an amateur in stock investment. I seen a Small market cap company With a 49 Div/Yield. What does that says about a company? It's by far the highest I've ever seen by a company. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 01 Aug 2018 10:53 AM PDT Their stock dropped from $70 to $40 about a year ago after they took some responsibility for the California wild fires. Although it's a messy mistake it doesn't effect their business model. Would the company be undervalued at $40? I try to stay away from energy companies because I'm not familiar with them. I appreciate any input, thanks [link] [comments] |
I made $777 from a $4.58 investment. HOW?! (SEED, ROBINHOOD) Posted: 01 Aug 2018 06:53 AM PDT The title pretty much says it all. I purchased 5 shares of SEED at .915 per share on march 22. On July 30th I sold 99 shares at 7.85. Where did the extra 95 shares come from? I just want to understand how this happened. I normally hold 1 share when I sell off a stock to make it easier for me to monitor stock I previously invested in. [link] [comments] |
Stocks keep beating earnings but the stock value is dropping. Posted: 01 Aug 2018 08:41 AM PDT I am a new investor (less than 6 months). A common trend I am finding is that my company I'm invested in is beating their eps number, but the stock is still falling. What am I missing? If a company beats their revenue and net profit number, shouldn't that equal a hike up in the stock price? [link] [comments] |
