    I've been trading for 3 years now but I'm curious how a recession will work

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 12:41 AM PST

    I've never been through a recession and have no idea what to do. Are there usually indicators leading up to a recession or will I just wake up one day and all my stocks will be down 50%? Since so many analysts are predicting a recession in the near future should I just sell the majority of my stocks? Are there certain stocks besides gold that thrive during recessions that I should buy now?

    To what degree can you "predict" stocks?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 10:42 AM PST

    I know no one can "predict the market" but to what degree can you support your hunch that a stock will be bullish or bearish in the near future and what parameters would you use/study to support you hunch? thanks

    Posted: 01 Feb 2019 07:12 PM PST

    I am interested in looking at say... all stocks under $5 that have had an increase today of 10% or more. Do filters like this exist. I'm new to this, but have been thinking about a few things for a while. Let me know if you can help. Thanks,

    what happens when a company enters bankruptcy?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 06:08 AM PST

    if a company enters chapter 11 bankruptcy im curious about the overall affect this on its stock and whether to buy in or not.

    so i read that chapter 11 bankruptcy means they don't liquidate their assets but they do have to come up with a plan to reorganize and pay back debts. this implies that they believe they can still be profitable after X years when their plan has been executed.

    my curiosity is about the stock before, during, and after. i would think it wise to buy in when they enter the bankruptcy but the uncertainty of if the company needs to use the stock to pay some of the debt would be key in deciding this (?).

    does this happen often when a company goes bankrupt? people buy in low, the company succeeds in their plan, then the stock is all of a sudden worth 5-10x more some time down the road?

    When writing about stocks, when do I need to disclose my positions?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 11:20 AM PST

    So, on Seeking Alpha, most of the articles will disclose the writer's relevant positions. For example, if I read an article that is bullish on GE, it will say on the bottom "Mr. Smith owns GE" or if he does not, it will say something like "Mr. Smith currently has no positions in the stocks discussed in this article." I understand the need for disclosure - to avoid pump and dump schemes where someone buys a block of stock, talks good about it, and then sells once others rush to buy.

    Here, people make recommendations but do not reveal their positions. I understand why - can do a quick comment without disclosing. (I see this is rule 1 on r/stocks rules but I rarely see it followed)

    However, I'm just wondering what is required in the United States for these matters. For example, if I make a recommendation to go buy DIS, do I need to disclose whether I own that stock?

    Why did Microsoft Azure growth miss expectation?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2019 10:03 PM PST

    Amazon earnings came out and AWS grew as expected. Azure on the other hand, being a distant second, only grew 75% instead of the expected 90%+

    AWS expected growth proves cloud business is still growing fast. So why did Azure miss?

    Safeish 12 month investment

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 08:17 AM PST

    I am looking for advice on a relatively safe stock that I can invest in for a 12 month period and hope for moderate growth or dividend earnings or something. I have a rental property and plan on taking the security deposit and investing it.

    I currently own Disney and VOO and am not opposed to putting the money into those but wanted to get others' feedback.

    I know no investment is truly safe and fully understand the risks of doing this.

    Advice is appreciated!

    What broker do you use and what's your margin?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 06:19 AM PST

    I used to trade with an American broker giving me 1:400 but they closed my account forcing me to their Canadian site which only gives me 1:30. Are their any Canadian brokers giving 1:400 with minimal commissions?

    Is the next 20% to 30% drop within 1 to 2 yearsish?

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 12:11 PM PST

    Is the next 20% to 30% drop within 1 to 2 yearsish?

    I don't want to buy a bunch of stocks and then can't sell, of aka you shouldn't sell or you lose money. Of have to hold and wait it out for 2 to 4 years for next bull market to start again.

    I am not sure if I should hold in cash in high yield savings account or non-fee cancellable CD's or regular high yield 1 year CD's, of aka hold out in cash if next recession is in 1 to 2 years?

    Thank you Lads

    All honest people are open, warm and friendly.

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 01:04 PM PST

    All honest people are open, warm and friendly.

    Science that is driven only by data, and not by human competitive nature, is always open, warm, and friendly. The data always speaks for itself. There is no need for a defense of data that is real. Pride does not belong in science. When human beings tell the truth, they are friendly, cooperative, open, and warm. When human beings do not tell the truth, they are arrogant, defensive, angry, and competitive.

    This is how we sort out all the bullshit: human drama from data itself. Let the data speak for itself. Allow studies of consciousness to continue without character assassination (debunking over skepticism).

    Skepticism is healthy. It allows for doubt, but also the continuation of seeking more data.

    Debunking is hateful. It is doubtful and controlling. Debunking (being overly critical without reasoning) does not allow for continuation of seeking more data. Debunking is psychological control. This is not science.

    In science - the data always wins. Data is independent of interpretation. With enough data, and with a variety of independent sources of data, the truth becomes apparent.

    There is no anger in science. There is only friendship and honesty. Science is DRIVEN by logic primarily, and then by data. If logic is not sound (as in competitive in nature, and not data driven), then the data will also not be sound.

    There is no authority or authoritarianism in science. There is ONLY data and logic - and that's it! All data and all logic remain independent of the individual. Pride and science are incompatible.

    Posted: 02 Feb 2019 04:18 AM PST

    Have you noticed when CNBC starts pumping up a stock or even bashing it then immediate price starts to go in that direction? I just want to understand/know how they have that much influence.

    Where to find average historical dividend yield data for a stock?

    Posted: 01 Feb 2019 07:50 PM PST

    Looking for a free site. Also have access to Morningstar if that would help.

    Posted: 01 Feb 2019 06:15 PM PST

    Hello all,

    Trying to buy some stocks in Canada, but I am finding it impossible to open anything like eTrade. I live in Costa Rica (Canadian Citizen) but only have bank accounts in CR.

    Any options for international do-your-own trading style sites?

    Thanks for your help, I appreciate it!
