    I get why people have been high on $MSFT leading up to recently, but even with Azure's growth, aren't they already priced to perfection?

    Posted: 05 Jul 2019 07:51 AM PDT

    After being on here for the past year, it seems the community thinks of $MSFT as a no brainer. Though, when you look under the hood and how it is currently priced, I'd have to say that it may be one I'd stay away from.

    I work in the SaaS industry, and I can confidently say that all of our most transformative clients all choose AWS over Azure. Azure is viewed more as a legacy infrastructure, one that configures easily with .NET applications. Almost as if the "safe" option rather than one that can transform how a company looks at its infrastructure. The reason I bring this up is because it demonstrates the loyalty factor with Azure vs AWS: people go to AWS because they believe in the vision of being "best in class". People go to Azure as a cost efficient, safe bet.

    Which do you think is stickier?

    And, if you look at $MSFT's history, besides their operating system, they have copied an existing a competitive solution/product and brought it to market to gain market share. (Bing, Zune, Xbox, Surface, Microsoft phone.., etc) This is not a company that prides itself on innovation, but rather a company that won the OS battle early and, arguably through predatory actions, maintained it through the rise of the internet. This caused them to be sticky within the tech scene for years and so have utilized their high margins to stay afloat by copying transformative tech.

    Enough with sentiment, here are the biggest fundamentals that scare me:

    PEG: 2.02

    PE: 30.17

    Dividend Payout Ratio: 39.11% (Way too high for competitive tech industry)

    Azure's Market Share: 16% (AWS: 33%)

    (TL;DR) So all in all, you get an objectively overvalued, 2nd rate company that pays out nearly 40% of it's earnings in dividends, which holds it back from fully re-investing into future tech revolutions. In tech, I truly believe in investing in best in breed, and there is virtually no vertical where MSFT is the best in breed.

    Can you really lower interest rates on the back of a strong jobs report and market ATH's?

    Posted: 05 Jul 2019 01:43 PM PDT

    As per the title. Is the current climate enough to prevent rate reductions that are mostly factored in?

    For me the most recent meeting didn't go in favor of the US, May employment was low, June broke records (on a strong belief of a rate reduction) employment in June somewhat made up for May and now the potential of a rate reduction that kept the market afloat may be nil as markets are hovering around ath's again.

    What CNBC says: "The market has gotten carried away with fed cut predictions"

    Unpopular rebuttal: "CNBC and the media has gotten carried away with spreading the idea that the market is assuming any fed cut predictions". After all, I (I am part of the market after all, albeit a small slice) never publicly said anything about Fed Cut predictions and neither do many people here in this SubReddit. I don't see hedge funds talking! Only people I see talking about Fed cut predictions are the clown pundits in CNBC with no skin in the game!

    $ETST launching new product line/division next week, according to company email to shareholder.

    Posted: 05 Jul 2019 06:37 AM PDT

    I am going to try to load $ETST today. They are talking about it in the $ACB discord and Telegram room (JBP).

    ".....yes, next week is the launch of our newest line of products, so that will be our next update to shareholders. We are about a month away from putting in place our independent board for uplisting to a international exchange, which is why we are retaining a independent board"

    Why are Stock prices dipping today?

    Posted: 05 Jul 2019 08:26 AM PDT

    Can someon explain to me why the favourable US jobs report has caused stocks to dip today? Wouldn't an interest rate cut cause investors to invest more?

    I am pretty confused and any clarification would be really appreciated! Thanks!

    Posted: 05 Jul 2019 09:00 AM PDT

    hey there! I was wanting to know if you might be interested in joining a trading team? I ask because I'm putting together a Discord trading team. It will feature scanners, alerts, and bots that can grant instant access to stock information. I'm looking for skilled traders to start with. The goal is create a team of new and experienced traders who can band together to achieve gains day after day. I'd like to know if you'd be willing to join. It's a new discord and I'm still in the process of coding bots, but the sooner we can get some people in there and trading ideas, the better. This is free. Thank you for taking the time to read this

    Asia stocks subdued as investors look ahead to jobs report stateside

    Posted: 04 Jul 2019 10:17 PM PDT

    Asia stocks were muted on Friday afternoon. Investors are awaiting the release of the nonfarm payrolls report stateside on Friday, which could provide clues as to whether the U.S. Federal Reserve would cut interest rates at its monetary policy meeting later in July.

    Commission Fees On TOS?

    Posted: 04 Jul 2019 08:36 PM PDT

    Hi, I'm new to the stock market and was wondering if the commission fees were for each order you place or for each individual stock you buy. Also how much are the commission fees.
