    Posted: 08 Jan 2019 04:54 PM PST

    Below is a list of books I curated from around a dozen "best of" reading lists to become a better investor. Personally, I am interested in a career as a portfolio manager and would like to devour any books that may help in that regard.

    How would you rank, rate, and/or review the books? What would you add (or subtract)?

    Thanks for your input.

    Complete Beginner

    Posted: 09 Jan 2019 01:11 AM PST

    Hey investors, so I'm currently majoring in engineering and want to learn about investing at my own leisure. I am a complete beginner, so I have no idea about investing other than the meaning itself lol. What resources would you recommend to learn about investing for a complete beginner like me? I've realized most youtubers are huge scams so don't really want to waste my time there. Appreciate any insight!

    REUTERS: Apple cuts first-quarter production plan for new iPhones by 10 percent: Nikkei

    Posted: 08 Jan 2019 07:35 PM PST

    Apple Inc is cutting planned production for its three new iPhone models by about 10 percent for the March quarter, the Nikkei Asian Review reported on Wednesday, a week after the company slashed its quarterly sales forecast.

    That rare step exposed weakening demand in China for Apple's iPhones amid a slowing economy, which has also been buffeted by a bruising trade war with the United States.

    Total Gain/Loss on Vanguard

    Posted: 08 Jan 2019 08:59 PM PST

    20 year old college investor, currently have holdings in VOO (my serious investment) and AMMJ (my 'see what happens')

    I am looking at my "Holdings" tab and am able to see my gains/losses for each investment for the day, but how can I see my lifetime gain/loss on those investments individually?

    Where can I find a row that states the symbol, price, and change since initial investment

    Thanks

    EDIT: I am aware I can see this on the Vanguard App, but how can I see it on the web interface?

    Court gives Sears new life, allows Chairman Eddie Lampert another chance to save retailer

    Posted: 08 Jan 2019 10:28 AM PST

    Sears is giving Chairman Eddie Lampert another chance to buy the company out of bankruptcy and save roughly 55,000 jobs.

    Sears on Tuesday had planned to tell the bankruptcy court it had rejected Lampert's offer to buy the retailer, after it fell short of covering its bankruptcy expenses. Lampert, though, protested the decision, highlighting the extensive costs of Sears' bankruptcy advisors, a person familiar with the situation told CNBC.

    Ultimately, the bankruptcy judge gave Lampert more time. ESL will be required to pay a $120 million deposit by 4:00 p.m Wednesday. Sears will hold an auction on Jan. 14, when it will compare Lampert's offer against liquidators.

    This story is developing. Please check back for updates.

    Daily advice thread. All questions about your personal situation should be asked here

    Posted: 09 Jan 2019 04:04 AM PST

    If your question is "I have $10,000, what do I do?" or anything similar. There is no single answer to this question, but we will also need A LOT MORE information if we are to give some sort of answer

    • How old are you?
    • Are you employed/making income? How much?
    • What are your objectives with this money? (buy a house? Retirement savings?)
    • What is your risk tolerance? (Do you mind risking it at blackjack or do you need to know its 100% safe?)
    • What are you current holdings? (Do you already have exposure to specific funds and sectors?)
    • Any other assets? House paid off? Cars? Expensive girlfriend? (not really an asset)
    • What is your time horizon? Do you need this money next month? Next 20yrs?
    • Any big debts?
    • Any other relevant financial information will be useful to give you a proper answer.

    Be aware that these answers are just opinions of Redditors and should be used as a starting point for your research. You should strongly consider seeing a registered financial rep before making any financial decisions!

    Betterment

    Posted: 09 Jan 2019 04:01 AM PST

    I found Betterment after needing to roll over a couple 401k's and since then I've been funneling $50 a week into their general investing account and $250 bi-weekly into their smart saver with 2.2% interest. Anyone have any experience with them?

    I figured I'd wait on my general account to grow a bit and then start dabbling with options on Robinhood which is probably a terrible idea.

    401K is at 100% match, is there better ways to invest my money? I'm 25, work 80+ hours a week and make ~$140,000 a year

    ELI5: Relationship between Fed Interest Rate Hikes and Quantitative Tightening?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2019 01:34 PM PST

    Could someone explain how these two tools are used together to combat inflation and/or prepare for a recession?

    My basic understanding is:

    • The Fed raises interest rates to combat inflation because the cost of borrowing is higher, so people and companies spend less
    • The Fed uses quantitative tightening to pull money out of the economy so the dollar is worth more and inflation is curbed? How exactly do they pull money out?

    Thanks in advance.

    I just finished The Intelligent Investor, and I was surprised by what I learned. [US]

    Posted: 08 Jan 2019 07:16 AM PST

    Last month, I had the privilege of listening to the audible.com edition of The Intelligent Investor. The audio was read from the 2003 edition, and was surprisingly relevant today. I had hoped for more post-crash commentary, but I didn't read the fine print and can likely find that in the print edition. Regardless, and as the title of this post notes, I was surprised by what I learned. What did I learn? That I don't know I damned thing about investing in any meaningful way.

    I was intrigued by the concepts of security analysis, and amazed that Graham's principles aren't more widely applied. I was absolutely amazed at how often the book recommended dollar cost averaged buying of index or low cost mutual funds for the amateur investor.

    Are there any investors here that are applying Graham's principles? If so, how do you gauge your success? If not, why not?

    Thanks, and have a pleasant Tuesday.

    Are there possibilities that Microsoft can be in place to outstrip Amazon on Cloud Infrastructure?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2019 07:11 AM PST

    The cloud infrastructure market is expected to reach $83.5 billion by 2021, up from $40.8 billion in 2018. Amazon Web Services was launched in 2006, which means it took twelve years for the infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) market to reach $40 billion – but will take only three years for the next $40 billion to accumulate. Therefore, the investment window for cloud infrastructure stocks is far from over.
