Posted: 29 Oct 2018 12:38 AM PDT The stock market always comes back to even and then moves up from there, after a bear market. I have read a version of this statement over and over on financial message boards and articles about investing. Yes, in the past the stock market always came back but are you at least 90% convinced that this will happen after the next bear market (stock market crash)? Maybe it will just sit there for years and years at the low number. Or it will continue to fall. Just because the market came back in the past does not mean it will in the future. Maybe that 3.5% CD I saw advertised may be a good idea after all! A continued bad stock market was a overwhelming fear by early 2009. By February 2009, the stock market had dropped 56% and there was really no sign it would ever go up again. This was after a really bad period from September 2008-to February 2009 when the stock market dropped 45% in just 5 months. If you asked most people in February 2009 if the stock market would come back, like it always did, they would have said no. What will people think about the stock market going back up after the crash of late 2019 when the market drops 60% due to a global recession and trade war? Your thoughts? [link] [comments] |

Where would I be able to access Stock Buyback Announcement Historic Dates? Posted: 28 Oct 2018 11:26 PM PDT I'm doing a research paper and kind of having an issue with data collection. So I'm looking for a list of historic dates where companies announce stock buyback programs. I know there are some websites that exist but they only go back til the start of this year. Would appreciate any help on where to look. I scoured WSJ, Thomas Reuters and Bloomberg with no help. [link] [comments] |

Places/sites where we can find investor for esports idea Posted: 29 Oct 2018 03:45 AM PDT Hi. Where can we find (international) investor for our esports AI idea? We made business plan, prototype will be soon made. I found two Slovenian websites for investors, but we still want to find other places, because our team is international. Two of us are from Slovenia and one guy is from Thailand. I would be really glad if you could link some websites or just give me suggestions where to find investors. Thank you in advance!

"A Total Rethinking of Tencent's Strategy" Posted: 28 Oct 2018 03:33 PM PDT On Twitter, I came across this recent essay on 'Tencent + AI Strategy' that's viral in China. Excerpt: "Tencent is now fighting major wars on two fronts: one is with Alibaba (of course, the war with Alibaba is far from just this front) in the new retail field, and another is with Douyin in the content field. I read a lot of analysis articles and felt that they all didn't discuss the most important points: the essence of these two wars is the battle of data and algorithms! Alibaba is relying on the retail industry's entire industry chain of data and corresponding algorithms and Toutiao is relying on the content industry's data and corresponding algorithms to fight hand-to-hand with the middle-aged penguin who has put on weight. Tencent's data strength is very strong, but unfortunately it is not used well, and its algorithms have not made breakthroughs to this point. As an ironclad fan of Pony, taking it all in, I am anxious in my mind and heart." As a Westerner with an 'outside' perspective, I've been watching Tencent closely for near a decade (I remember in 2010 when they were offering 1TB of cloud storage for free, a massive amount at the time), but I'm aware that as a Westerner it's hard for me to fully understand the company, its context, its goals, and the Chinese business environment (just as I'm sure harder for native Chinese to understand the American business landscape). I found this essay extremely informative on multiple levels and thought I'd share. All credit to the original tweet by which I discovered this essay. [link] [comments] |

How do you think the market will react to midterm results? Posted: 28 Oct 2018 11:40 AM PDT The consensus I was able to see around the net seems to be that the market either doesn't care too much about elections, or that as the results become known, uncertainty reduces and so the markets become a little more optimistic. What do you think? Is the above picture really true? What a specific result - Dem/Republican - give a specific outcome? Lastly, what is your strategy around election day - keep on the same, or do you see an opportunity? [link] [comments] |

Similar Vanguard Funds to VPCCX or VDIGX Posted: 28 Oct 2018 02:13 PM PDT Two popular funds that I like. Unfortunately, they are both closed due to their popularity. I don't have any shares for either one. Is there any other Vanguard fund that is similar to these? Thanks. [link] [comments] |
Why add international mix into portfolio? Posted: 28 Oct 2018 11:33 AM PDT Hi all, I'm planning to start the portfolio that's 80% S&P 500 20% intermediate-term corporate bonds. This is all related to ETFs. Why should I consider mixing in international stocks and international bonds, and what percentage? Doing the back test reveals that domestic Focus was higher return [link] [comments] |
Evaluating Total Return of S&P 500 vs S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Posted: 28 Oct 2018 03:01 PM PDT Heya Investors of Reddit, I could use a little help. I've found a few articles making the statement that the S&P 500 is consistently outperformed by the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats once reinvestment of dividends is taken into account (i.e. total returns instead of market price).
I'm having trouble corroborating the data though. Firstly, I'm having a really hard time finding total return charts: I've had to use morningstar for funds and a 7 day demo account at ycharts for indicies (and apparently data only goes back 5 years?). Second, when I do graph total returns I'm getting much different results than what's portrayed in those articles. I've spent a couple evenings digging at this without much progress so I'm wondering if anyone here has some insights to help me along. Is my data bad? Is there a solid source of total return data for indicies? Is there another way I should be evaluating this investment strategy? [link] [comments] |

Does getting a loan from the bank and putting it into an index fund, make financial sense? Posted: 28 Oct 2018 08:04 PM PDT If someone takes out a loan of X amount of money from the bank at 6% interest rate and puts it into an index fund such as the Vanguard S&P 500 that has an average of 11.7% return since 1976, then technically, barring a financial disaster (stock market crash, but is highly unlikely) you could essentially make money and not do anything. In theory this makes sense, so why don't all people do this? [link] [comments] |
Anyone have any experience with Swap based ETF's? Do the risks make it not worth it? Posted: 28 Oct 2018 10:11 AM PDT So I'm a US citizen who is based in the UK for work and am likely to be here for quite some time (10 years or more). Aside from my UK retirement accounts, I add to a brokerage account each month in the US and strongly prefer to keep the bulk of my wealth in the US as that is where I expect to end up long term. My taxable portfolio is currently quite small at roughly $40k and presently sits in VTI, VXUS, BND, and BNDX. Here is where it gets messy. I have been advised of my UK tax obligations which go a lot further than I thought they do. Essentially, so long as I live here Her Majesty expects that I will pay UK taxes on any dividends or other income I receive in the US, regardless of whether that is brought into the UK. I expected to continue to add to this portfolio while here and that means that I will now need to pay UK tax on my ETF's dividend payments. Because the UK dividend tax rate is over 30%, my US tax payments will not cover it and I will need to cut a separate check to the UK tax authorities for another 15% and my portfolio will take a beating. This is above and beyond the 45% I already pay in UK taxes for my ordinary income. This has led me to try and find ETF's where there is no dividend income and I came across "Swap based ETF's", which attempt to mimic the returns of an index without paying dividends. They rely on arrangements with financial institutions (usually banks) to pay a specific return and so there is risk that those institutions default, but I am curious if anyone here has experience with them. Have you used swap based ETF's? Are there other instruments that can help avoid the taxable event of dividends while keeping me well diversified? Many thanks, [link] [comments] |
Posted: 28 Oct 2018 06:22 PM PDT There are so many traders/experts calling for a bounce next week or the correction ending in Nov. However, there is a major issue here, we don't know whats really behind this selloff. For the past 10 years since 2008, we had breixt selloff, China 2015 Aug meltdown fresh crash, Feb 2018 Vol explosion.... etc. We knew the cause of the selloff almost at the first week when it started. I monitor more than a donze of indicators, even more than half are trending down, but just not enough to trigger selloff like this. Yes we knew Fed's language change, its huge. but the capital is actually pretty confusing. The junk bonds are doing bad, but not too bad. Credit market is awful, Bond market overall is not so bad either. Midterm election/buyback share blackout period? They both start to end or ended in first week in Nov. Why ppl are dumping shares so bad when they knew the market is coming back up right afterward. It doesnt make sense. I don't want to talk about the data or TA here to debate with you guys. None of MSM or experts are clear define why this is happening. This is bad news. The correction have started a few weeks we know nothing yet. Fed and election are not major catalyst for this correction, what is it? I understand there are many bearish data out there, but they are not bad enough to trigger a sellout like hundreds points a day. They are selling on every bounce and rallies. I believe until we know whats the real reason behind this correction, it will continue regardless of any short term relief. For all the past correction, we knew when it is about to stop, for example, the expert who trades Vol, they knew when the excessives will sort out and game back to normal. I found nothing in the media or from the experts, even the bearish, doom experts dont have anything can convince me, they just repeat what they have saying. Hope to hear some good and serious insights from you guys. [link] [comments] |
Invest right now or wait for early next year? Posted: 28 Oct 2018 02:33 PM PDT There seems to be a lot of uncertainty right now, especially with the elections, and the rapid market swings of the past few week. If you had a relatively large amount of cash to commit long-term, would you wait for the uncertainty to resolve itself? From all I'm reading, things should stabilize after the election, and there's a typical stock rally at the beginning of the year. So waiting for January seems sensible. What do you think?
