    Stock Market - 18 years old, want to secure my future

    18 years old, want to secure my future

    Posted: 09 Dec 2018 03:39 PM PST

    As you can read in the title, I want to invest to secure my future living. I have a few Euros on my bank account (nothing huge) and I am also getting a job soon (besides University (I also live in Germany so I wont get any student debt )). I just started watching youtube videos and reading books about stocks and investment in generall. Now my question is, is investing in stocks a good Idea for me or should I invest into something else? Would love to read your thoughts :)

    P.s. If anything is unclear feel free to ask me about it

    Extreme newbie interested in starting stock trading

    Posted: 09 Dec 2018 10:29 AM PST

    I can't figure out how to search the subreddit if this has been asked in the past (I'm sure it has!) so if you can link it here I can check those out :)

    I am a stay at home mom, with an active duty spouse so we have a fixed income guaranteed every 2 weeks. We are hoping to have another source of income, and with me staying home, the stock market has become an interest.

    My main question is, is this even doable? We have a 3 year old so I'm not constantly attached to like having a newborn, but am curious about the amount of time devoted to stock market fluctuations more so as a hobby rather than full time job (if that makes sense). We are hoping to trade a couple hundred bucks into more than what we put in whether that be a profit of a hundred bucks or a thousand.

    Is it something we could piddle in or is it something you have to seriously dedicate time to like a full time job to make any money? TIA!

    Week 50 Breakout Forecast: Short-Term Picks To Give You An Edge

    Posted: 09 Dec 2018 12:35 PM PST

    2018 YTD Chart: +38.68%

    The benchmark S&P 500 index continues into negative territory for 2018 with over 5% declines this past week.

    The Momentum Gauges

    The Momentum Gauge signals continue to maintain higher levels of negative momentum than positive momentum since week 39 (last week of September). This has been a highly reliable predictor of breakout momentum effectiveness as you can see on the charts that I will further integrate into selection timing for 2019.

    The positive momentum gauge declined further to 9 this week from a value of 16 last week.

    Dow futures drop 260 points as sell-off looks set to continue in new week.

    Posted: 09 Dec 2018 04:59 PM PST

    SAUCE - Click for more in depth.

    Sunday's drop in futures comes after China summoned the U.S. ambassador to Beijing to protest Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou's detention.

    The arrest is seen as a potential deterrent to the U.S. and China reaching a permanent deal on trade. Huawei is one of the largest tech companies in China and is seen as symbol of pride by the Chinese government.

    The drop also follows a volatile week for investors. The major indexes had their biggest weekly declines since March last week as worries over global trade and the economy gripped Wall Street.

    OUTCAST REPORT: Fundamental stats from this week's biggest gainers

    Posted: 09 Dec 2018 04:40 PM PST

    Whether the market is up or down there is always money to be made! With the market taking a significant hit this week I thought it'd be interesting to go over some key fundamental stats for stocks that bucked the trend. This data is taken from LazyFA, an automated research tool which aggregates and analyzes the fundamental data of nearly 15,000 companies. All data is as of the most recent reporting period (most recent year for foreign companies and most recent quarter for domestic).

    Here are this week's five biggest gainers:

    CRON - Cronos Group Inc (NASDAQ):

    Weekly Gain: 21.72%

    Last Trade: $12.71

    Overview:

    • CRON operates in the Drug Manufacturers - Specialty & Generic industry. Over the last 2 years, it has generated average revenue of $2.32M per period, and spent approximately $2.29M per period to do it. After taxes and other costs, this resulted in net income of $2.49M for the year 2017.

    Financial Health:

    • CRON held a total debt load of $4.22M as of 2017-12-31. With operating cash flow of $-5.55M as of 2017-12-31, this means that depending on when debt is due, it is potentially unlikely to be able to service its debt over the long term.

    Losses and wash sales

    Posted: 09 Dec 2018 05:31 AM PST

    Hello all, I have large gains from earlier in the year I would like to wipe out with my micron unrealized losses. Online it says I cannot sell my stock and immediately turn around and buy options. However, what if I sold my stock on December 21st, immediately bought options for March 2019? Would this allow me to realize the losses without activating a wash sale? Or do dates don't matter? What if I bought options for a year later? In essence I don't want to get rid of my micron holdings, but the unrealized losses are sizes le. And I rather not pay capital gains in 2018.

    I honestly don't think it was directly tariffs or rate hikes that tanked the market

    Posted: 08 Dec 2018 08:29 PM PST

    It's the overvalued market that keep giving premium/excessive valuation to stocks.

    It's like the AMD bubble in Aug when it popped 8%-15% every single time an analyst upgraded it, driving it all the way from $19 post earnings to a staggering $34. It was totally crazy and irrational and pure greed.

    The turning point was Intel. It announced 10nm was still on track. AMD crashed like 7% on that single day, and started to descend from there. Then came the Oct tech rout, and then AMD earnings. AMD kept going down.

    Now can we really say, Intel's announcement caused AMD's fall from $34? Nah. Because it should have NEVER went to $34 in the first place. Intel announcement was a catalyst, but not really the cause.

    Another example is momentum bubble stocks in the past like HMNY and others. A single twitt from short sellers like Citron research tanked HMNY after the insane runup to $38, resulting in a crash immediately. But can you really say Andrew Left caused it by the twit? OR, was it a huge bubble in the first place and Andrew Left simply changed the sentiment and induced fear and the stock fell?

    When it was Aug and Sep, I didn't really think the trade wars would be a big deal. The reason is 10% tariff while not good, was already offset by China's currency devaluation. If Trump raises it to 25%, China would just devaluate more.

    And the rate hikes... it was supposed to be already priced in. So it came as a total shock in Oct 3 when stock routed that hard.

    Now I think about it, I think Trump's retardation and his trade wars, and the fed rate hike, did instill fear in the market, and the SENTIMENT changed, somehow, and this caused the bubble to deflate. People simply have become pessimistic. Everyone is predicting because of trade wars and tariffs economy gonna have a recession in 1-2 years and nobody wants to hold the bag then, and want to reduce exposure before others, and this led to a vicious feedback loop, and resulted in the stampede in Oct and Nov and we are still in sideways market in Dec.

    This revelation I think has multiple implications. I believe next few years gonna be painful. The upside is limited at this point. You can basically say, the difficulty settings have been increased significantly. Right stock picking is now extremely important. FORGET about indexing, because it will go flat, you HAVE to pick individual stocks or sector to gain an edge.

    I see high valuation stocks to go down or flat. Like the gaming stocks, Adobe, Netflix, Amazon, will all be volatile and no longer will you see 50%-70% per year in SP increase. A good pick in a tech stock might yield you 20-30% a year, max. More and more stocks gonna result in being flat or losses.
