| Posted: 02 Dec 2018 08:30 AM PST TD Ameritrade is charging 9.25 interest on margin (including collateral margin where I have already got equities that I pledge to the broker), according to the documentation on the website. Actually, that is the base rate and the actual margin can be slightly different depending on the margins that a customer usually takes. Assuming that 9.25% interest is there on the margin and a trading strategy on say S&P 500 requires one to go along for a cumulative total of six months in a year and short for a cumulative total of rest of 6 months, then boot to the interest, we lose 4.625% while shorting the index. That is quite a bit of money to make up in the gain some shorting. So I wonder how are people making money when money is being used on the margin. (Of course, I do understand that in this particular example, one could have used an inverse ETF. But I'm just providing the example for the illustration for cases where there are more inverse ETF available) I was actually hoping that if I provide my equities to the broker, then hopefully there is minimal loan interest on the money that I get in exchange of the equities which is already provided to the broker. Can people please advise if there is a any possibility like that from a broker or am I not understanding this 9.25% interest requirement properly. [link] [comments]  |
| Humble Investing Pointers Needed Posted: 03 Dec 2018 03:06 AM PST I have been learning a bit about investing in past few years. I am currently 37 with wife and two kids, 4 and 1. I don't make a lot of money but we also don't spend an excessive amount, so I am able to save around 1000 a month. I also contribute in my Roth 401(k) plan which is not matched by the employer, so only I put in the money. Besides that we have a 6-12 mos emergency fund set apart. I am wondering if I should put in that 1000 a month into an ETF, MF or Target date fund or even individual stocks I like which is taxable or should I put in that money into a Trad IRA account and allow that to also become a retirement fund? I am having a hard time to know or determine if the 401(k) is enough or do I need to put in that extra savings too into a Trad IRA or should I keep that 1000 into a taxable joint account and invest from there? Also should I put in money on a consistent basis for my kids into their 529 accounts or I have heard that it's more important to just invest in other ways, not sure there either...though I do have a couple of thousand in their education fund which has come in form of gifts from family members. Also, I understand the general ways on how MFs and ETFs work and have invested in some value stocks too, but nothing tot he dollar amount that will make me rich lol. So, any helpful suggestions on investment strategy would be helpful along with the taxable or non-taxable piece... [link] [comments]  |

| How many forms of passive income do you have? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 03:10 PM PST I'm new to investing and learning how to get my money working for me. As a simple question, how many forms of passive income do you guys have and which ones do you recommend for someone wanting to invest 10-20k. [link] [comments]  |
| Aegon N.V - Too good to be true? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 01:15 PM PST This firm has a P/C ratio of 1.08 and a P/B ratio of 0.42. whats the catch? Debt to Equity is at 0. Why is no one talking about this? What am I missing? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Dec 2018 03:36 PM PST How do I assess the average amount of assets (real estate, property, free cash ) amount companies have in S&P500? P.S Why do I need it? There is something called Zakat in Islam where you are required to pay yearly tax on your assets. In case of stocks its a bit more complicated so trying to figure it out [link] [comments]  |
| For those who invest in Biotechs, what's your process for researching them? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 09:05 AM PST I've heard of the major things you should do like looking at a company's pipeline, looking at their potential market, fundamentals, insider activity and revenue/debt, reading their papers 2-3 weeks out from a catalyst date, looking at what biochemical pathway their drug utilizes and how it compares to similar ones, etc. but what other specifics do you do before buying into one? Disclaimer: I have a background in science. I'm fully aware of and willing to accept the high risk biotechs have and plan on only investing a tiny part of my portfolio in them. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Dec 2018 04:48 AM PST Assuming the news we heard is true, market is likely to have a rally tomorrow. And fed's tone last week makes rate hike in Dec not so certain. The market environment looks a little more positive now? Are you buying tomorrow? What are you buying? I am definitely buying some apple [link] [comments]  |
| Questions about T-Mobile's Proposal to Acquire Sprint Posted: 02 Dec 2018 07:08 PM PST In an article it states the following, "Sprint and T-Mobile will execute the all stock deal based on Friday's closing prices of $6.50 and $64.52 respectively, the companies said, with 0.10256 T-Mobile shares for each Sprint share, which translates to the equivalent of 9.75 Sprint shares for each T-Mobile US share. The ratio values Sprint at $6.62 each ." Why is the stock based on closing prices of $6.50, but the ratio is valuing Sprint at $6.62 each? Is T-Mobile paying a premium? [link] [comments]  |

| Airlines’ stock prices since 2008 Posted: 02 Dec 2018 06:51 PM PST Does anyone have solid reasoning on why airline valuations have exploded, in my opinion in bubble like fashion, since 2008? I see the upside potential, only 5% of the world has taken a flight, but 900% on $UAL since 2009 seems silly. [link] [comments]  |
| Evidence that trend following outperforms buy-hold over long periods (10-20y) Posted: 02 Dec 2018 06:33 AM PST Are there any strong academic evidence that over the long term (10 to 20 years) that a trend following approach (i.e: SMA(200)) outperforms a buy-hold strategy? [link] [comments]  |
| Best Core 4 ETFs for Global Exposure - or is there just One? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 05:35 PM PST I ideally would like to have just a few ETFs to create global exposure to my portfolio. Starting with $5,000. Was thinking these four and have regular contributions, interested in getting your perspective. I've chosen these based on wide market index exposure without much of any overlap. VFV - S&P Index Fund XEF - iShares Core MSCI EAFE IMI Index ETF XEC - iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Index ETF What's your thoughts on VGRO - Vanguard Growth ETF Portfolio which benchmarks against 7 other Vanguard funds that include the following: Vanguard US Total Market Index ETF 31.9% Vanguard FTSE Canada All Cap Index ETF 23.7% Vanguard FTSE Developed All Cap ex-North America Index ETF 18.5% Vanguard Canadian Aggregate Bond Index ETF 12.0% Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets All Cap Index ETF 5.3% Vanguard Global ex-US Aggregate Bond Index ETF CAD-hedged 4.9% Vanguard US Aggregate Bond Index ETF CAD-hedged 3.7% [link] [comments]  |
| Public companies that are developing security token technology? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 04:39 PM PST Any public companies that are pioneers in developing security token platforms? I don't want to buy the tokens themselves, but think their could be some speculative $$$ to be made before they catch on. [link] [comments]  |

| Accumulating or Distributing ETFs Posted: 02 Dec 2018 03:17 PM PST I always have heard around here about DRIP and always thought how lucky were people that have that option, as I'm fairly young (24) and dont want the money i invest for now. Today I just realized that while i cannot do that, there are ETFs in my broker (degiro) that offer accumulating plan. So some questions I have:

| Any chance for a commission refund? Posted: 02 Dec 2018 12:54 PM PST I use TD (no RH in Canada) and got nailed with $9.99 in commissions when my order filled 60/15000 shares of a penny stock. I accidentally hit close at day, but near the end of the day I did a "change order" to good till next Friday (after a partial fill) My position is worth $35 and cost me $10 to enter...
