| Costco increasing dividends with over $6B cash in their hands Posted: 30 Apr 2019 04:56 PM PDT https://www.fool.com/investing/2019/04/30/costco-boosts-its-dividend-what-you-should-know.aspx Costco announced an increase in dividends, from .94% to 1.06% yield. There's also potential (no guarantee) for special dividends -- they have a lot of cash available and historically have paid special dividends 2-2.5 years apart (last one in April of 2017).

| Best way to invest for buying a house couple of years later Posted: 30 Apr 2019 10:39 PM PDT Here's my situation - I currently live in SF Bay area, where the house prices are ridiculous. In most of the country, my income would be considered high, but here I am at best an average earner. I save as much as I can from every paycheck, but looking at the high home prices here, I don't think I can buy a house here and live with a peace of mind. So, my intention is to work here for couple of more years, and move to another TBD city - which while being urban and providing a good QoL (think Austin, Denver, Charolette, Raleigh, Minneapolis or OrangeCounty). What would be a good place to invest my money for me to be able to use it couple of years later for buying a house in the new city? The usual guidance for investing in stocks is that I shouldn't put money in stocks that I would need in the next 5 years. So, where do I put it? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 Apr 2019 07:29 AM PDT Just came across this article: https://www.financial-planning.com/news/investing-for-long-term-gains and in it, it is discussed how the volatility over the last 20 years just following the S&P Index alone, while still successful per Warren Buffet's recommendation, was severe and if you were to invest across all 12 indices, ...the deviation would be more subtle and also the return was ~ 6.8% outperforming the S&P. The yellow highlighted areas represent the year's highest returns and by which fund. And the S&P had only 1 of them in the last 20 years. Anyways fascinating article and curious on everyone's thoughts. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 Apr 2019 10:36 PM PDT Hi all, im using m1 finance to start my journey into Dividend investing. I have a 401k and Roth IRA and it's index funds/etf's and a few bonds and they are boring but they do their job. I wanted to start a brokerage account to put in a few hundred bucks a month for steady growth and I like the idea of dividend reinvesting and DGI. M1 finance is free so I used that and it does a good job making it easy (I like the whole "Pie" idea). Anyways is there any real big "Cons" to doing DGI? Obviously I will miss out on any big gains buying and selling, but im talking about a purely passive approach. Secondly when it comes to picking good DGI stock to me (as a newbie) im looking for: - Steady Growth - Decent Market Cap - Dividend Growth - At least a nominal yield (ideally above 2% but less than 6-7% outside of special REIT's, yes im aware of tax implication with REIT's) Is there anything else im missing? I know most people mention the dividend aristocrats but some of these companies seem sort of stagnant when it comes to revenue growth....are they still worth it if their overall stock price keeps going up (Proctor and Gamble is a good example of this) [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 01 May 2019 03:30 AM PDT I try sometimes to follow general investment discussions on the Internet to see what's being focused on in general. And there's one thing I often find that is not at all healthy, and that's the strong desire for quick wins. A lot of people jump into trading with the aim of massively increasing their wealth quickly. They approach it like some sort of casino. And with that huge risks are taken. Options are bough and sold, because they give you massive leverage. The time scale is usually no more than a week, if not a day, at most. This is not investing, this is gambling. I also enjoy sometimes going to a casino. And I certainly enjoy the odd poker game every now and again. But I don't do those things with the aim of becoming rich. I play poker because I enjoy spending time with friends (and to pretend I can calculate the odds of my hand), and I go to a casino for the "free" drinks. Investing on the other hand is a slow endeavor. It's like growing a plant, maybe even a cactus sometimes. It's about having a few strategies in place that you feed have stood the test of time, and then just apply these methodologically. The more I study investing, the more I see that people simply don't have the patience for it. This is probably why the best advice you can give to most people is to just put their money into a cheep index fund and forget about it. The worst you can do is check the price of your portfolio constituents daily. This is because it's a noisy environment, and if you do check it too frequently you'll just end up getting nervous and make short term decisions. But you want to stick to the long term decisions. That's why I only spend a couple of hours each weekend, to ensure my pick of companies remain relevant when compared to the list of ranked companies. Typically I make no big change, and then I more or less forget about it till next weekend when the list is updated. The last thing I'd want to do was to keep myself "up to date" with whatever is currently being talked about on TV channels like CNBC and the likes. It is simply noise amplification, and it will serve you no good purpose. [link] [comments]  |
| Open an investment account for a non-us Resident Posted: 30 Apr 2019 06:27 PM PDT Ideally I want to open an investment account for my newly born niece. She lives in Australia and will be an Australian/UK Citizen. I live and work in the USA and have my own investments here. 1) Am I able to open an account on her behalf? 2) If I can, would it make sense? By that I mean when she turns 18 or 21 would accessing the money be a pain? Tax? Exchange rate etc? Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Your thoughts on potential impacts of the rise of index investing? Posted: 30 Apr 2019 12:05 PM PDT Here are a couple articles with comments from de Planta, Partner at Pictet Asset Management https://static.group.pictet/sites/default/files/2017-11/RdP_2articles_passive_investing.pdf I'm not asking about the merits of passive vs active. That's been discussed many times. Instead I want to hear your thoughts on:

| Best/cheapest broker to trade US options from Oz? Posted: 01 May 2019 12:07 AM PDT I am trading us stocks via the STAKE platform but I they don't offer options. STAKE is impressive in that once you convert to USD there are no trading fees whatsoever. I'm looking for a similar or best way to trade US options from Australia without being stabbed with excessive fees/xchange etc. thanks in advance for any assistance. [link] [comments]  |
| Lots of companies crushing it and giving positive guidance...wishing for a crash is silly Posted: 30 Apr 2019 10:52 PM PDT Just because SOME companies shat the bed recently doesn't mean it's some system wide symptom. FANG crashed 35-40% back in december purely on SENTIMENT. Hell FB has a PE in the teens for a while. If you actually looked at the fundamentals (crazy concept i know) everyone knew this was sillyness that wasn't going to last long. Reason has returned, but whatever bears I'm sure the Sky is falling so keep shouting on the Street corners. [link] [comments]  |

| Tempted to lock in "good enough" gains YTD for tax advantaged accounts? Posted: 30 Apr 2019 05:20 PM PDT I'm solely in Vanguard index funds (VTSAX and VIIIX) for my 401K and Roth IRA. Relatively young and at least 10 years out from any retirement, so comfortable with 100% equities exposure. Back around summer 2018, I was up 13% YTD. Then winter 2018 happened, wiped out all my gains and contributions for that year. At this point, I am back up for 2019 18% YTD. You always hear "time in the market beats timing the market", but damn is it not tempting to just now sell everything in tax advantaged accounts to just "lock in" an 18% gain for the year. 18% for a year is already awesome, and year is not even halfway done. Why not just take my winnings and run for this year, and just ensure to buy back in sometime at least before 2020 kicks in? It's a lot harder to climb back from losses. I had the same musings back summer 2018 but never pulled the trigger before winter 2018 happened because I was worried about any unforseen complications with selling large sums of money in 401K/Roth IRA. It should be tax consequence free from what I understand. It's just if you start trading too much, then the investment company that is holding the funds will start restricting you within a time period. Hindsight is 20/20, but it sure would've been nice to take my winnings and run in 2018 after 10% or so. Anyone else have the same thoughts in terms of "locking in" gains as good enough for a year in tax advantaged accounts? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 Apr 2019 05:05 PM PDT I've found their product and the market opportunity very interesting. Growing revenues (170% yoy at $87M in 2018) and flat losses is a good thing. Richly valued at an expected $1.4B (17 times last year's rev.), but a huge TAM makes it very exciting. But the part that's most concerning is that Tyson foods, one of their early investors sold their entire stake last week, a few days ahead of the IPO. Wanted to get thoughts on this sub on what this means. [link] [comments]  |
| I got about 18.5k in a mutual fund I don't know if it's the right choice. Posted: 30 Apr 2019 08:29 PM PDT I have 18.5k American funds growth mutual fund. I don't check it regularly as I know with funds like this you are supposed to just let it grow but I'm wondering if I am doing the right thing. Do you guys think there is another option that would be better? it's performance last I checked wasn't all that great. I'm looking for low risk growth. This is a retirement/house down payment.

| Why are investors willing to buy german bonds at negative yields? Posted: 30 Apr 2019 04:41 PM PDT For example a US 2 year bond yields 2.27% while a german 2 year bond or "schatz" yields -0.6%. that's almost a 3% difference, why? [link] [comments]  |
