| Should I invest in the company I work for? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 11:32 AM PST The company I work for is private but offers its employees the option to buy shares every year. The total amount of shares employees can buy is equal to 15% of the company. The remaining 85% is equally split between 3 families. There is only one time a year where employees have the option to buy or sell the shares. Shares were first offered in 2002 and have returned on average 24% per year, even staying above 16% during the recession. The company is in the food industry, hence the reasonably stable returns. However, shares returned 11.5 percent this year. Is there anything I should be aware of before buying these shares? Share return: [link] [comments]  |

| Selling land worth 1.6-2.4 million, what to plan for? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 07:58 PM PST So a short background, my mother in law has some farmland she may put up for auction to sell. It should bring in around 2 million total maybe more possibly slightly less. Let's just call it 2mil for easy math. She has 75% while her 3 kids (my wife included) equally have a 3rd of 25% each. My question is what are some good funds or investments that my mother in law could invest in that give a decent return she can live off of while being relatively low risk for the next 20-30 years? Something like 40-50k a year for her in returns after taxable gains. She lives off less now. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Gold, Silver Gains As Crude Oil Sees Solid Rebound Posted: 22 Nov 2018 08:02 PM PST (Kitco News) - Gold and silver prices are moderately higher and at two-week highs in early-afternoon U.S. trading Wednesday, supported by a big rebound in crude oil prices and a weaker U.S. dollar index today. December gold futures were last up $6.80 an ounce at $1,228.00. December Comex silver was last up $0.236 at $14.505 an ounce.

| Posted: 22 Nov 2018 11:31 AM PST This is the sub I'd expect to see averaging down at these price levels and further declines. I picture the average poster here having a 20+ year time horizon. With the above in mind, I'm curious at what price drop, if any, would you become nervous/consider selling? Let's stick to SPY to keep things easy. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Nov 2018 09:02 AM PST Where do I go and start reading to understand commodities? If the prices of commodities affect stock prices then I would think I need to know what it means for X commodity to fluctuate in cost and those tangential factors relating to their price fluctuations.

| Posted: 23 Nov 2018 03:29 AM PST WTI crude oil is quite a rollercoaster. It went from 100ish in 2014 down to 30ish early 2016, up to 70ish just two months ago and now dropped sharply down to 50ish. What do the next few weeks till EOY18 likely look like? (I know predictions are useless, but thoughts about it nevertheless potentially enlightening) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Nov 2018 10:32 PM PST I'm just wondering what others think about EBAY as a potential long term investment. A couple of things stood out that could make it a solid investment. EPS grew 30% and stock buybacks are slated to decrease outstanding shares by 15%. [link] [comments]  |

| Withdrawing Roth IRA contributions to take out less in student loans: Smart or not? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 12:10 PM PST I maxed out my contributions the last two years but decided to go grad school. I know this isn't the board for personal advice, so I'll ask in general instead. Does it make more sense to leave it in the Roth, as it'll benefit someone greatly in retirement by having what's essentially two "extra" years of growth? Or does it make more sense to avoid taking out more in loans with origination fees and interest rates of 6-8%? [link] [comments]  |
| Vanguard is “owned by the funds managed by the company.” What does that mean? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 06:22 AM PST Here's a growing list of questions I have about this statement: • What does it mean for a fund to "own" Vanguard? • How can a fund be an owner? • If each fund created by Vanguard is a partial "owner" of Vanguard, what exactly does the fund own? • How is this business arrangement structured? • If all the funds within Vanguard are created and managed by Vanguard, then doesn't the sentence "Vanguard is owned by the funds managed by the company" essentially mean that Vanguard is owned by Vanguard? Having trouble wrapping my mind around this concept for some reason. I feel like I'm experiencing some sort of some circular logic error. tl;dr Customers invest into funds that are managed by Vanguard, which is owned by the funds, which are owned by the customers. Anyone else confused by this? Crosspost from r/personalfinance [link] [comments]  |
| Where can I see what one standard deviation in a stock's price? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 03:52 PM PST I'd like to see where one standard deviation in a stock's price so I'll be better able to average down on well-managed companies. I have Schwab as my brokerage, if that helps, but I've never been able to locate anything on there (not sure if Yahoo Finance or Google Finance has this). [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 22 Nov 2018 09:29 AM PST From my understanding VTSAX has more exposure to the total US market while VFIAX is 500 largest US companies. They both seem to have similar expense ratios and returns. Can someone help me understand what the differences are between VTSAX / VFIAX and why those differences would sway some to choose investing in one over the other? Please note: this is not me asking for advice about my personal situation. Some users over in r/financialindependence seem to be a cult following of VTSAX and I'm trying to figure out why. r/investing seemed like the appropriate place to find out. [link] [comments]  |

| Any way to profit from a private company buying another private company? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 06:52 PM PST Let's say you know that private company A is buying out private company B and they're both multibillion-dollar companies. Is there a way that an outsider who doesn't presently own stock in either company somehow profit from this information? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 22 Nov 2018 10:12 PM PST Do you think trading based on what insiders do is a good idea. For example, if a CFO buys 3 million worth of shares in his own company, would you consider investing yourself? It seems like they should have a pretty good idea if they're willing to put down so much money. [link] [comments]  |

| Vanguard BND not showing up on Investopedia's simulator? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 01:27 PM PST I'm doing Investopedia's stock simulator and Investopedia keeps saying BND ( Vanguard's US Bond ETF) is not showing up as a stock to trade. BNDX shows up (Int. Bond ETF). What gives? [link] [comments]  |
| Would using past stock prices be a good way to test me strategy? Posted: 22 Nov 2018 12:34 PM PST The scenario: 5 years ago I have $12000 to invest. My strategy is to invest 50% in VTI, VIOO, and QQQ. The other 50% is split between 5 stocks (realistically 10, but i'll use 5 to save time). If i invested all this money on November 1st 5 years ago and didn't touch it for 5 years, would i get a vague picture of how my strategy fares out over time? [link] [comments]  |
