    List of stocks in indices?

    Posted: 03 Aug 2018 10:03 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I was wondering if anybody knew where I could find a list (preferably in something like a csv) of all stocks in different indices, i.e. the S&P500, DJIA, and Russell 3000. I've been googling but it's hard to find stocks in the lesser used ones in an easy format to get at with python.

    Thanks

    What are some good websites/YouTube channels/etc I can view every morning before work so I can increase my knowledge of the market and events that effect it. So I can be “in the know” so to speak? I don’t have cable or satellite so traditional news stations are out.

    I just started working at a broker dealer in an assistant role until I take my licensing exams. I'd like to be able to know at least something in regards to current events. My focus is on my study material hr I'd still like to start each morning with some material so I know what my co workers are talking about in the office or when we have meetings together.

    Fairly new and diving right in. Could use some feedback

    Posted: 03 Aug 2018 10:58 AM PDT

    I've always wanted to invest in the market but never wanted to take the leap. Finally about 2-3 months ago, I bought a small investment of $20 worth of shares in Helios & Matheson (MoviePass) knowing it was a sinking ship but wanted to just get my feet wet with watching how it works, I was fine losing that money. That investment is now worth about about 7 cents lol.

    Yesterday I decided to really go for it. and this is where I'd like to start getting some feedback on what I did right, wrong, could do next, should do next, etc. Yearerday, I bought a single share of a number of solid companies: Apple, Hormel Foods, TX instruments, John Deere, Cisco, Disney, Microsoft, Diageo, and Medtronic.

    So I bought a single share of each, figuring they'll all do well in the long term, are relatively safe, won't make me rich but will likely all bounce back even if the market tumbles.

    Besides being patient with my current investment, was it smart to buy 1 single share of each? Should I have not have invested in these particular names? Is there something else I should look out for to protect myself and/or increase my potential of earning more money? Also, I'd like to continue investing a little bit each paycheck. I have the means to take some cash every other week and buy another share or so. Should I double up on existing shares, keep buying singles of even more time-tested companies?

    Sorry, I know it's a million questions. Just hoping to get some honest feedback and guidance here.

    Why build outside of the USA? Because NAFTA provides free risk insurance paid out in cash

    Posted: 03 Aug 2018 12:38 PM PDT

    As of today, it has paid out over 500 million to companies with products that didn't quite work out. You have a meeting with three attorneys appointed by NAFTA, and you argue your case. Their burden of proof is whatever their knowledge of your industry is. If you sell unique IC chips, you pretty much have a great deal of leverage over selling say, soy beans. The billions just offered to the farmers was to spare the xnumber of tribunal attorneys needed to shell out exactly what the farmers would have asked for. It was not a welfare payment to the farmers. They would get it anyway. The payment basically wiped out attorney fees.

    This is the part that you all in this forum will want to know:

    What if you're a savvy invvestor on reddit and want damages caused by a company, especially if the company you are inested in won a previous NAFTA risk damages payment?

    https://www.politico.com/story/2018/02/21/canada-stands-firm-on-pursuing-bilateral-investor-dispute-process-with-mexico-in-nafta-356665

    It's almost there for you. Sorry, I would post more. Got my thread off of Apple deleted yesterday by social media managers. Possibly free money for investors is taboo with an undeserved headline of a trillion dollar market cap with nearly 95% of the product made outside of the USA. Apple knows NAFTA provides free risk insurance.

    Here, might as well read more before this gets deleted for talking reality instead of hype to build value not on PE but xtimes value in hype talk here. Companies, sorry, corporations do not report enough already. This is steady cash and as it says, USA has not lost yet. "I wanted to frack in Canada and they said no after I bought $9 million in R&D, now pay me $9 million"

    77 known NAFTA investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) claims up to January 2015. These include 35 against Canada, 20 against the U.S., and 22 against Mexico. Canada has paid out NAFTA damages totaling over $CAD172 million, while Mexico has paid damages of $US204 million.

    The U.S. has yet to lose a NAFTA chapter 11 case. All three governments have incurred tens of millions of dollars in legal costs to defend themselves against investor claims.

    Canada has been the target of over 70% of all NAFTA claims since 2005. Currently, Canada faces nine active claims challenging a wide range of government measures that allegedly interfere with the expected profitability of foreign investments. Foreign investors are seeking over $6 billion in damages from the Canadian government. These include challenges to a ban on fracking by the Quebec provincial government and a decision by a Canadian federal court to invalidate a pharmaceutical patent on the basis that it was not sufficiently innovative or useful.

    So we're all great at backtesting, using TA, looking in the rearview mirror to see what happened to a stock, indice, or ETF, creating a story as to why it happened that way and then predicting where that stock, indice, or ETF is going to go. The hard part is actually making $ from our predictions

    Bull market in stocks could be in ‘last innings’ as bears set sights on strongest sectors

    Posted: 03 Aug 2018 06:12 AM PDT

    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/bull-market-in-stocks-could-be-in-last-innings-as-bears-set-sights-on-strongest-sectors-2018-08-02

    A long-running bull market in stocks may be about to enter its final inning.

    Morgan Stanley reiterated its cautious view on equities, arguing that a "rolling bear market" wasn't yet over, and that it could soon impact the parts of the market that have been holding up successfully.

    Specifically, the investment bank said that small-capitalization stocks — which have benefited from the uncertainty surrounding trade policy, given their high levels of domestic revenue exposure — could be about to turn.

    Michael Wilson, Morgan Stanley's chief U.S. equity strategist, said he was "a bit leery about the fact that small caps have become a perceived safe haven in the event of trade conflicts," and that this "perception may now be overpriced."

    Small-capitalization stocks, as benchmarked by the Russell 2000 indexRUT, +0.77% , are up 8.9% over the course of 2018. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.49% is up 5% this year, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -0.03% is up 1.9%.

    'Just remember that those last innings can bring a lot of excitement and anguish, too, depending on which team you are rooting for.'Michael Wilson, Morgan Stanley

    The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, +1.24% has been the best performer among the major indexes; it's up 11.8% year to date. However, this is due almost entirely to outsize gains in a few huge companies, which have been enough to lift the index — and by extension, have helped to support the overall market. Specifically, Amazon.com Inc. AMZN, +2.07% has jumped more than 50% thus far this year, while Apple Inc. AAPL, +2.92% is up 21%. The iPhone maker, the largest stock on the market, ended at a record high on Wednesday, boosted by strong quarterly results.

    Not all of the market's biggest drivers have had results on the level of Apple's, however. Netflix Inc. NFLX, +1.81% disappointed in its latest quarter, and the stock has dropped 20% from its most recent peak, a drop that puts the video-streaming giant into bear-market territory, even as it remains up 76% for the year.

    Facebook Inc. FB, +2.75% suffered its worst day ever in the wake of its results last month, and is now down 2.2% for the year, and it's off more than 20% from its own all-time peak. The plummet in Facebook underlined how vulnerable the overall market could be in the event that further cracks appear in the uptrend of growth stocks, which have lifted the market for years.

    The so-called FAANG stocks — a quintet that refers to Facebook, Amazon, Apple and Netflix, along with Google parent Alphabet GOOG, +0.50% GOOGL, +0.66%— have by themselves contributed a sizable proportion of the overall market's gain this year. All five are in either the technology or the consumer-discretionary sectors, and, as Morgan Stanley's Wilson noted, "within the U.S. market, we have noticed a significant divergence between the perceived weakest links and the stronger ones. From a sector standpoint, it's really down to just technology and consumer discretionary [maintaining strength]."

    See: Here's one way to play a stock-market shift from value to growth

    "Our call was that these groups are likely to get hit next and, indeed, we think a meaningful correction in these asset categories began late last month. The bad news is that these sectors make up almost 40% of the S&P 500 and close to half of the Nasdaq Composite Index, so the correction will leave a mark on the broader U.S. indexes if we're right."

    He added, "if we are right and U.S. large-cap growth stocks and small-cap stocks finally take their turn in the rolling bear market, we would view it as the final inning of the game we expected this year. Just remember that those last innings can bring a lot of excitement and anguish, too, depending on which team you are rooting for."

    According to Wilson, Morgan Stanley recently sold 25% of its large-cap growth position, rotating that into large-cap value strategies. In addition, the investment bank reduced its small-cap equity holding positions by 30%, putting that into cash equivalents.
