I keep one of my stinkers in my portfolio to remind myself of how terrible I am at picking stocks. Posted: 03 Feb 2019 01:09 PM PST usually when i see it i think oh i should sell it and put that money to work in VOO or SPHD. but keeping it around reminds me that I don't know what the hell i'm doing. and if you don't know what the hell you're doing you should just stick to index funds.

Did China corrupt the process of index creation for passive investors? Posted: 03 Feb 2019 03:03 PM PST Interesting article was posted in the WSJ today here The key take away:
What I find more surprising here is China effectively forced their way onto an index. While one take away from this article is of course, China strong armed an index to add itself onto it for billions in foreign revenue. The other issue I see it casts doubt on the integrity of indexes. You assume these indexes are constructed in good faith based on established criteria and other factors, but it appears this is not the case. [link] [comments] |
Best way to organize potential investments Posted: 03 Feb 2019 09:24 PM PST I've been wanting to invest for ages, and have about $1000 sitting in a trading account that I haven't touched, I'll be adding more as I get into it. I have a tentative strategy of 40% longer term investments and 60% for more active trading, and shorter term investments. The problem I'm having is that there are SO MANY options, I have not idea how to start organizing options, and then narrowing them down to find the the best choices. Are there apps or strategies (or techniques) that help organize or compare and contrast stocks so that I can narrow down choices that will fit into a portfolio? I understand some asset allocation, and risk management in terms of diversification but that knowledge seems to complicate things more when I'm trying to find and organize my options. Do you have any suggestions that could help a newbie organize himself and narrow things down? I want to get this started ASAP! [link] [comments] |
Daily advice thread. All questions about your personal situation should be asked here Posted: 04 Feb 2019 04:04 AM PST If your question is "I have $10,000, what do I do?" or anything similar.

Help me brainstorm how 5G internet will affect the stock market Posted: 03 Feb 2019 10:41 PM PST Which companies will benefit the most from fast internet? The only thing I can think of is streaming services, such as Netflix, because there won't be any buffering. [link] [comments] |
The trouble in Europe has only begun Posted: 03 Feb 2019 02:11 PM PST MacroVoices probably my favorite podcast has an amazing interview with grant Williams. This was on social risk; ie political extremeism. From the description: Erik asks Grant if we in a cyclical bear market and where he feels treasury bond yields are headed next. They discuss tensions between China and Taiwan, the rise of global populism and the future of France and Europe. Grant shares his update on how things are developing on Australian Real Estate and the risks of a recession. They end with touching on gold and the U.S. dollar. Above is the pdf Audio Excerpt

Investing for young Australian Posted: 03 Feb 2019 11:08 PM PST Hi all, I am 22, have just graduated uni, and will be starting my full time job next week paying approximately $960 a week after tax (~$63,000pa gross). I have approximately $35,000 saved and am interested in investing the majority of this money into the share market. On top of this, I would be looking to continue to build on my portfolio on a 3 month basis (for example) with a portion of my progressive saved income. I am not looking to save for a home loan for at least the next few years. At this stage I am looking at investing in ETF's such as Vanguard ones (VAS, VTS, VEU). I'm thinking that indexed portfolios with low overheads is the way to go, especially because I have an extremely long-term horizon with this investment and will be gradually adding to it. Is this a viable strategy for a younger person starting their career in Australia? I am fairly new to this but have studied a Business & Commerce degree, so have a fairly good theoretical base. Any tips/opinions/advice would be incredibly appreciated! Thank you so much in advance :) [link] [comments] |
For those with a retirement and taxable account what holdings do you have in each? Posted: 03 Feb 2019 09:36 PM PST I have a long term portfolio comprised of some stocks and index funds. I want to open a Roth and am thinking about holding 2 index funds (VOO & VTI) and a reit. Should I liquidate my index funds in my taxable account and only keep stocks? And does it make sense to have dividend yielding funds in a taxable account? [link] [comments] |
Government bonds and being paid back principal + interest Posted: 04 Feb 2019 02:16 AM PST I am seriously considering investing in government securities. However, the only thing that has me not pulling the trigger is the chances I am not paid back right away. I know the odds of this are very slim since government bonds are AAA rated by Moody's, S&P, and almost every other rating agency out there. So, will I not be repaid the principal if it is a large amount that I spend on a bond, i.e. in the ballpark of $100,000? [link] [comments] |
Buying fractional shares through Vanguard. Posted: 03 Feb 2019 10:16 PM PST Does Vanguard allow you to buy fractional shares of stocks and ETFs? I want to set up a schedule where my automatic investments will go into the purchase of a stock or ETF. If my cash transfer is under the price of that stock or ETF, does Vanguard allow me to use that cash towards a portion of that stock or ETF? [link] [comments] |
No idea how to invest or where to start for my traditional IRA funds Posted: 03 Feb 2019 09:56 PM PST I opened an IRA and put in $3000 in 2017. It just sat there and did nothing til now. Looking to invest but honestly I'm clueless about investing and everything about ETFs, stocks, mutual funds, bonds all sounds confusing. Any good material to read for dummies, or recommended tools for me to help decide what to invest in? I would like a "lazy portfolio" i guess where I can just leave alone for 40+ years. Most likely will add more money each year. [link] [comments] |
Why pick different proportions of large/mid/small cap? Posted: 03 Feb 2019 11:47 AM PST I just switched companies and set up my new 401k. I don't know much a lot about investing but I know enough to like the ideas of the Boglehead approach. I have a Roth IRA and a taxable account at Betterment. I understand why you'd want to adjust your ratio of stocks to bonds based on age and risk tolerance, but why would you want to adjust your ratio of capitalization sizes? The only approach that makes sense to me is to approximate the total market, which I did with the info on this page https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Approximating_total_stock_market Of all the choices to make as an investor: bond vs. stock, domestic vs. international, value vs. growth, etc. why am I being given the choice of large/mid/small cap? Especially since my fiduciary doesn't trust me to make other decisions like picking sectors or individual securities. [link] [comments] |
Any way for an American to buy stock on the NEX Exchange (London small caps)? Posted: 03 Feb 2019 09:38 PM PST I'm approved for international trading in my Fidelity account, but it doesn't look like they have access to NEX Exchange securities. [link] [comments] |
Apple's stock could soar this year if it introduces media bundling, video streaming: Morgan Stanley Posted: 03 Feb 2019 12:46 PM PST https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/03/morgan-stanley-on-the-innovations-that-will-send-apple-soaring.html Morgan Stanley says Apple's new services launching in 2019 would be a big catalyst for its stock. Apple plans to debut its video streaming service this spring and the bank predicts a media bundle and an expansion of its payments and advertising business are also on the horizon. The bank set its 12-month price target for Apple at $211, which would represent a 27 percent gain. So finally there is a good suggestion for apple next revenue stream other than iPhone!!!

Google Finance vs. Yahoo and Robinhood Posted: 04 Feb 2019 03:44 AM PST I was recently looking at numbers for PCG and I wanted to see if Google Finance showed more statistical info than Robinhood did. I noticed that the two showed vastly different numbers for some of the stock's stats. Google shows no Div yield for PCG and it has the P/E ratio at 3.74. Compare this to Yahoo finance and it lists N/A for Div yield and a P/E ratio of 49.73. Finally, Robinhood shows a Div yield of 3.458 and a P/E ratio of 50.172. What gives? Why are the stats not the same for each website? Furthermore, why so drastically different? [link] [comments] |
Is it a good idea to trade stocks with $300? Posted: 03 Feb 2019 01:04 PM PST I've been wanting to get into stocks for awhile and now that I'm 18, I want to start now. I recently got a part time job and right now I have about $300 and I make about $300-$350 every two weeks. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to start with about $300. If it is, what kind of stocks should I invest in and through what platform? Also, where would be the best place to learn about stocks? [link] [comments] |

Question about AMZN earnings call topics "units" and "head count" Posted: 04 Feb 2019 12:37 AM PST In looking at the transcript of the earnings call last week, the first analyst up was a guy named Justin Post, and he asked the following question:
Anyone know what he means by "units"? I can't seem to find anything in the earnings release that has a 14% change (and thus might be "units"), and although I do have the 10Q and can go through that line-by-line, it's pretty formidable and I'm hoping someone here can provide some insight before I try doing that. Later in the call, Brian Olsavsky (the CFO) said:
So I'm guessing headcount and units are the same thing. [link] [comments] |
What is everyone’s favourite “non-tech” stocks at the moment? Posted: 03 Feb 2019 01:26 PM PST After buying the dip the last few months, I am a bit tech-heavy, and still have some cash leftover.

Wealth & Happiness Metrics over time Posted: 03 Feb 2019 09:39 PM PST I have learned this general idea that people were happier in the 1950s because wealth was more spread out, but the rivalrous nature of our economy has lead to a greater concentration of wealth with a decreasing level of happiness for the masses. Could part of the problem be because there is less wealth in the economy today per capita? Or is the problem strictly related to the rich/poor gap widening? Any recommended resources on this topic? I would like to see stats, graphs, and theories. [link] [comments] |
Looking to invest in ETFs, what should I read? Posted: 03 Feb 2019 10:25 AM PST I am looking to start investing in ETFs but I would like to get more knowledgeable about it. I have a degree in accounting but I am by no means a finance expert. What should I read/watch to get familiar with investing in ETFs? [link] [comments] |
