| How a $500 Investment Grew to Over $60 Million - Warren Buffett’s Nebraska Furniture Mart Story Posted: 25 Nov 2018 06:41 AM PST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWYZUCUj0BM I was reading the book Buffettology and came across this story of Rose Blumkin (aka Mrs. B). She was the founder of Nebraska Furniture Mart. Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway eventually purchased this company and it's still profiting for them today. [link] [comments]  |
| I made a 3D data visualization tool for financial statements! Posted: 25 Nov 2018 04:52 PM PST What's up everyone! I wanted to share an update to this site which I've been working on for the last few months cause it's REALLY awesome and gives you a very cool way to navigate financial statements: in three dimensions! I got this idea after stumbling across an awesome charting library called eCharts and I was in the process of making a new charting section of the site anyway so I decided to integrate it and see what it was like to visualize this data in 3D. Turns out it's actually really awesome cause it's like you can literally take a walk through the numbers and really get a sense of how big/small some are and what the trends and relationships look like. Anyway here are a few screenshots! Apple quarterly income statement Apple, reduced to just major line items to get a sense of how they compare "Standing" at the bottom of Apple's quarterly balance sheet from 2008, looking up toward today There are a couple known bugs and plenty of things I have left to implement, and this portion of the site is definitely only meant for larger screens (at least tablets I would say) but I really wanted to share cause I've been having so much fun messing w/ it! Controls are pretty simple:
You can use it free and there's plenty of other stuff on the site to explore. Let me know if you have any feedback and what you like/don't like and I'll keep adding stuff! Hope you all like it! [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Nov 2018 08:13 PM PST I know it's based off volatility. How does the VXX perform during markets that trade sideways with swings up/down. If there continues to be uncertainty in the market, I don't see why VXX shouldn't be a great investment even if it's for a very short holding period and a 5-10% gain. Thoughts? [link] [comments]  |
| Cumulative return for FAANG stocks in 2018 Posted: 25 Nov 2018 10:23 AM PST Graph of this issue: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DsvCoreUcAA1AIE.jpg FANG got wrecked this year - so far. Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, and Google parent Alphabet plummeted during 2018, compounding weakness that has plagued the broader tech space. At least one of those names could have hit a bottom, according to Matt Maley, equity strategist at Miller Tabak. "The stock that I think could be compelling down here is Facebook," Maley said on CNBC's "Trading Nation" on Thursday. "It's not a crowded trade any more. It's been washed out." Facebook is the only stock of the group negative for the year. It has dropped 10 percent in 2018, the bulk of those losses sustained after its notorious $120 billion drop in market cap in late July after its worrisome second-quarter earnings statement. While Maley says the fundamentals in other FANG stocks might be more constructive, their steep run-up means they're more vulnerable to a pullback than Facebook. "If the market begins to roll over, you're actually going to see the Googles and the Netflixes, some of that fast money, the momentum money, start to sell in a little bit of a panic move, but that money has already disappeared from Facebook," said Maley. Do you think the sell-off is over in the FANNG stocks? Are you personally buying FAANG stocks at these current prices? [link] [comments]  |
| Where will Apple get future growth from? Posted: 24 Nov 2018 09:01 PM PST So I can't understand why I keep reading that Apple's future growth will come from their "services". This just doesn't add up to me. New iphone users would add growth to services. Most existing users who have had iphones for many years area already subscribed and have bought the apps that they wish to buy. I feel like services should remain steady from here forward people will probably spend the same or less than what they spent in the past setting up there iphone and will spend the same or less on music and movies. What am I missing? I want to hold on to my Apple stock but I am targetting growth and I just don't see where it will come from. To go further apple does not even try to push selling watches or airpods in my opinion (watch is still ugly and airpods don't have good sound quality or stay in a lot of users ears). They should offer bundles with the new phones when they are released. They should have also branded the beats headphones with apple logos all over them. I know a lot of this is just my personal feelings and really want to be disputed before I do something that might be dumb like sell half my apple holdings. [link] [comments]  |
| Any Dividend Growth Investors? Posted: 25 Nov 2018 01:42 PM PST I started investing about 5 years ago. When I was just starting out, my Dad was giving me guidance, and as an income investor, I followed his path and started investing in "blue chip" companies that pay a good dividend. Given that I'm Canadian, most of our market is based on Banks, Telecoms, Pipelines, and REIT's. So that's basically what I started with. Enbridge, Bell Canada, TD Bank, Fortis, Brookfield Infrastructure, etc. They all pay a healthy distribution, grow dividends each year, and are stable business that provide services people need. They aren't going anywhere anytime soon, and have all survived multiple recessions / business cycles. Most people have favoured growth stocks in the past decade, and I almost jumped into many of those attractive growth stocks at the peak of hype, especially when my dividend stocks didn't seem to be moving fast or at all. After some evaluation on my risk tolerance and my overall strategy, I decided that I like the idea of compounding dividends over decades, and then being able to live off those dividend payment in retirement. This obviously requires me to ensure the companies I invest in are safe, stable, wide moat, and not at risk of cutting the dividend. Now I'm trying to grow my Dividend Growth Portfolio, and I wanted to know if there are any others who like this strategy - I'd like to hear your thoughts! [link] [comments]  |
| Cannabis Sector Update- Friday, November 23, 2018 Posted: 25 Nov 2018 04:47 PM PST Good general info for anyone just keeping an eye on the cannabis market [link] [comments]  |
| Studies: stock market setup for 1 last relief rally before a peak in a 2019 Posted: 25 Nov 2018 11:21 AM PST Based on the way economic data (macro) is going right now), the stock market will probably make 1 final relief rally going into 2019, after which a bear market will ensue [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Nov 2018 09:42 AM PST http://robinhoodstrategy.com/stock-analysis/apple-aapl-short-term-pullback/ What are your thoughts? Is Apple a buy and are you concerned with slowing product lines? [link] [comments]  |
| The case for, and against, Apple. Posted: 25 Nov 2018 06:49 AM PST As we all know, Apple's share price has recently taken a dive. Will this dip continue. I don't know. I see another possible dip towards $167 tomorrow. How low it goes after that depends on a few things in my opinion. If holiday sales reports aren't favorable, this will dip further. Other catalysts for a dip include the announcement of continuing interest rate hikes by the Fed and negative news out of the G20 Summit at the end of the week. It's possible we could see sub-$140 prices in a worst case scenario....with the stock essentially trading flat over the next ten months. If, on the other hand, we see positive reports with regards to holiday sales, a pause on interest rate hikes, and positive news regarding US-China trade relations out of the G20 Summit, then this could be on the way back towards $200+. A mixture of positive and negative news will keep it where it's at with dips and rises along the way. As of right now, I believe holiday sales reports (specifically to Apple) will be vague and have very little effect on the stock. I think the Fed, and more specifically Chairman Powell, will stick to their plan and continue to raise rates (once more this year, and 2, maybe 3 times during the first 9 months of 2019). US-China trade relations will bring in the normal positive-negative news cycle. That being said, unless Trump and Xi are making a deal on their own (which I doubt), I don't see a trade agreement taking place in the near future. Hopefully I'm wrong. [link] [comments]  |
| I'm interested in getting dividend data or a database. Specifically for integration into Python Posted: 24 Nov 2018 10:04 PM PST Hello! I am working on a project for my Data Mining course, and I am looking into data related to dividends. Is there are easy way to lookup dividend data in Python? Is there an easy site that will get me various information about a stock's dividend? Such as payment date, type, percentage, etc? I can make my own database from a website, though that requires a bit more work! [link] [comments]  |
| What trading platform can I use to trade in UAE? Posted: 25 Nov 2018 01:47 AM PST I tried using trading 212, but they asked for proof of address and I do not have one. Where can I trade without having to give an address? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 25 Nov 2018 01:30 AM PST No this is not a scam and I dont want your money. I just feel like people don't know where to begin a lot of the time. I can answer any questions you might have and I can set you up with a stock account. I'll show you some of the ins and outs as well. Feel free to message me :) [link] [comments]  |
| Market unimpressed by Copart's strong growth and earnings Posted: 25 Nov 2018 01:09 AM PST Baffling market reaction to Copart's last 2 earnings reports. Its a fast growing online vehicle auction site, with a focus on salvage (which reduces cyclicality) and operates in a virtual duopoly with network advantages and huge domestic and global opportunities that are only starting to be realized. PEG ratio of c.1.2 This is not a recommendation to buy or sell. Stocks not suitable for every one. Please do your own research. [link] [comments]  |
| Japan Insight on Apple iPhone XR Posted: 25 Nov 2018 12:14 AM PST IPhone XR is reportedly being discounted in Japan according to WSJ and there's a lot of questions... iPhone XR is technically the successor to iPhone 8, but size wise is almost as big as the 8 Plus. I didn't want an XR because it is too big so I got an XS. Anyone know about what Japan prefers? The iPhone 8 is the winner in Japan right now. Maybe a $599 phone is too good to pass up? Japan economy has contracted in the last quarter due to natural disasters, plus the yen is somewhat struggling against the strong dollar. This is the case with all countries and don't see reports of Apple discounting in other countries. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 24 Nov 2018 09:31 PM PST Every retail investor is like "you can't outperform da market! so just buy index! super safu!! it will always go up , funds are safu !!" Except this is exactly why the stock market has now much more systematic risk than before. It's like the financial crisis 2008, financial institutions knew some mortgages were garbage, so they "diversify", mixed them with better rated mortgages in CDOs, sell these safu CDOs to investors. We all know what happened next. CDOs became hot garbage, even though many of them were consisted mostly of "good" mortgages, but the trash mortgages dragged them down. This is exactly what is happening now. Every braindead retail investors, rather than use their brain to pick stocks, they go the easy way and "diversify" and put money in index. This means this bear market gonna be different. Look at MCD, WMT, they performed good during the 2008 financial crisis. This time, this wouldn't happen again. Because they gonna get dragged down with the index. When every one of these braindead zombies can't HODL much longer and decide to pull out of their beloved QQQ and SPY, every stock gonna bleed. I find it funny how everyone here in this sub and all other financial subs including WSB still believe indexing is safu. The retail investors are really mostly just braindead idiots who cant think for themselves. Indexing is toxic and is pure cancer to the current stock market. It punishes good stock picking and averages out everyone. It's socialized pumping/dumping. Every stocks move the same everyone gains the same and lose the same. It removes skill and experience from the market. It's an equalizer, born out of stupidity, fear, and greed. Forget about safu sectors in this bear market. Nothing is safu any more. We are all going down. [link] [comments]  |
