Beyond Meat raises IPO price to $1.5 billion which still seems cheap for the market leader in a $35 billion target market. Posted: 01 May 2019 11:12 AM PDT The company is targeting a 13% share of the $270 billion US meat sector based on the share that plant based dairy products have won of dairy milk market. "We believe that by applying the same strategy to the plant-based meat category, it can grow to be at least the same proportion of the approximately $270 billion meat category in the United States, which over time would represent a category size of $35 billion in the United States alone" https://sec.report/Document/1655210/000162828018014471/beyondmeats-1.htm This is not a recommendation to buy or sell. Stocks are not suitable investments for everyone. Please do your own research. submitted by /u/InterestingNews1 [link] [comments]

Should you look at the average beta of your portfolio - diversification? Posted: 01 May 2019 11:54 AM PDT Is this worthwhile to monitor? obviously its easy to brand stock x and y as 'tech' and therefore for a diverse portfolio want other industries, but is it worth thinking about having a diverse range of betas in a portfolio? submitted by /u/dvnielng [link] [comments]

Would you stop from investing in DPZ (Domino Pizza) because of its high debt? Posted: 01 May 2019 10:18 AM PDT DPZ has a very impressive stock price run for past few years - +300% for past 5 years ​ Its has impressive annualized revenue growth (22%) for past 5 years - https://i.imgur.com/jZvFwpL.png ​ Its has impressive annualized net income growth (17%) for past 5 years - https://i.imgur.com/IRgQuno.png ​ But, its negative ROE (debt more than asset) is scary to me - https://i.imgur.com/lCS8LJP.png ​ Although it is still a cash positive company, its net cash flow can be negative sometimes - http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=135383&p=irol-fundCashFlowA ​ I was wondering, if a company is having more debt than asset, is that a red alert? If not, what other aspect I should look into, to consider whether DPZ is a "relatively safe to invest" high growth company? submitted by /u/yccheok [link] [comments]

LIN Stock Posted: 01 May 2019 08:24 AM PDT With Linde (German) recently acquiring Prax Air I've decided now is the time to look at purchasing stock in this company.

Stock Display Utility Posted: 01 May 2019 07:22 AM PDT I'm a small cap investor. I have seven stocks and want to find a single program or utility to tell me the values of each instead of me going to each stock individually. They are on several exchanges in US and UK. Ideally, if I could put in the purchase price, it would tell me how they are doing. No need for real time updates. Delayed values are fine as I buy long term primarily. Anything out there? submitted by /u/BaDumDumTish [link] [comments]
