China ready to make a deal. Big old green Monday. Posted: 25 Aug 2019 08:57 PM PDT |
Posted: 26 Aug 2019 01:02 AM PDT I'm reading the "Principles For Navigating Big Debt Crises" by Ray Dalio, and the book (as well as his interviews in various places online) often mentions various "gauges", such as bubble/depression, tightening/easing. Did he publish recipes for those gauges? I'd imagine those are some linear (perhaps with marginal amounts of nonlinearity) combinations of well known economic factors, such as debt/gdp, long/short term interest rates, unemployment levels etc. [link] [comments] |
Can the fed just uninvert the yield curve? Would it be a bad idea? Posted: 25 Aug 2019 06:04 PM PDT The way I understand it is the fed only controls the short term interest rate. If I'm correct all they have to do is lower rates below the long term rate set by the banks I think? Inverted yield is bad and often a predictor of recessions so should the fed just drop the rates. What would be the consequences of this? [link] [comments] |
Emerging Market funds and China Posted: 25 Aug 2019 08:34 PM PDT Hey everyone, with the recent turmoil in China and Hong Kong and with the emergence of a lot of information exposing the Chinese as being really shady in terms of honest business practices is it a wise idea to begin to pull personal investments out of china? Have any of you heard of "Ex-China" Funds which are traditional Emerging Market funds with no Chinese holdings, What do you all think? [link] [comments] |
Posted: 26 Aug 2019 12:04 AM PDT I want to start options trading as I've done investing before and want to try something new. Yes, the money I have now is something I willing to risk and yes, I understand the risks. I want to learn how thoroughly read and understand charts but also learn how to chart myself and read indicators. Thanks! [link] [comments] |
Why do people from China like investing in residential real estate? Posted: 25 Aug 2019 09:50 AM PDT The city I live in is flooded with money coming from China and the prices of residential real estate is sky high. I was talking with my neighbor who is from China, she said she owns 8 different apartments that has no one living in them and are just empty, because she believes that prices will ALWAYS go up. I asked her, how she can be sure that prices for apartments will never go down, she told me to not worry too much as everyone is buying apartments because it is a good way to make money. But I doubt prices WILL ALWAYS go up like she said, all bubbles come to an end. Literally in my building, only 30% of the units have people living in them. The rest are completely empty, and the owners are all living in China. They don't rent them out either, just sits empty. If interest rates goes up or the banks stop lending, then there will be so many apartment on the market, the bubble will burst very quickly. Whatever the appreciation in value is only on paper unless you can convert into real returns. It seems like such a waste of Capital, alot of that investment could be going into businesses or more productive parts of the economy. Instead they just put them into steel and concrete. Can someone explain to me why Chinese people think this way? Are there cultural reasons to this? Is this just a case of: "everybody does it, so I will to"? I don't see many white folks or other people lining up around the block to purchase apartments from the sales office when a new building is planned. Sure, not just Chinese people like investing in real estate, but they seem to take it to the extreme. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 25 Aug 2019 04:23 PM PDT Honorary first post; I usually lurk so I don't say stupid things (which I reserve for wsb, of course). This is going to be a stupid thing, because I'd like to be less stupid in my approach to investing. I'm here because WSB would tear me apart. Bear with me if you can. I'm looking for some decent literature on carrying out due diligence. I'm becoming less interested in restricting 100% of my investments into trading on companies that everybody knows has great long term value. I work in the IT world, and I see a lot of these publicly traded cloud companies that people are discussing, and have the opportunity of carrying out due diligence on them as investments while I evaluate and learn about their products. However, this poses a few questions. How does determining value of a company change from various sectors? What kind of scandal could be extremely negative for tech that would hardly impact retail outlets? Data breaches certainly affect cloud providers far more than credit companies, as we've recently realized. I understand there is no simple set out answer, but who are some good authors, articles, or podcasts (any medium is fine for me) that typically discuss this information. Now, I hate to ask this to begin with, as Google definitely exists. However, investing is so trendy nowadays; a lot of articles seem to be pretty skin deep and flood my search results. I would go with obvious books like The Intelligent Investor, but I'm not sure how the relevancy of Ben Graham has carried on after four decades of the guy being dead. I've heard the foundational knowledge is great, but not always applicable to current markets. Are there better, more relevant pieces written in respect to the modern market? If you can't recall any literature, what are the right questions to be asking in searching for methods of due diligence? Finally, I'm sorry this isn't as concise as I'd like it to be. TL;dr: I want to read, give me book. Is Ben Graham still OG? If not, who is? [link] [comments] |
Do REITS buy properties on leverage? Posted: 25 Aug 2019 02:35 PM PDT Hi, If you invest in REITS do you still get the possible appreciation advantage of buying a property with leverage? One of the arguments I read about from proponents of real estate investing is that you can take advantage of leverage by using a mortgage. So if you put 20% down on a 300k home and it appreciates by 10% in the first year you would have a 50% return in one year (If you sold or refinanced hypothetically). But if REITS also buy on leverage, wouldn't you have the same advantage? In other words, if a REIT buys a property finances 80% of it, and 20 years later it sells it for a higher price, don't you, as a shareholder, get the appreciation from the property via a capital gains distribution? Let me know your thoughts. Thanks [link] [comments] |
Opinions on this ETF trading service? Posted: 26 Aug 2019 03:48 AM PDT Hey, I am a bit intrigued by this guy here but I can't really decide how much of it is legit and how much is just throwing my money away. Do you guys have any thoughts you'd like to share? [link] [comments] |

Dividend portfolio. IRA or Taxed account? Posted: 25 Aug 2019 02:41 PM PDT Right not I'm using a Dividend portfolio in a taxed account and a mix of vanguard funds for my IRA. From what I'm gather in these discussions I might have them mixed up... Should my dividend portfolio be in the IRA and my vanguard funds be in the taxable? At some point before 59 I would like to use the income from the dividend portfolio ...Could someone point me towards some helpful links (mainly, tax implications)? [link] [comments] |

Reducing risk in portfolio and its tax effects Posted: 26 Aug 2019 12:34 AM PDT I read this rather interesting article in Morningstar https://www.morningstar.com/articles/943466/the-taxman-says-stay-invested about the difficulty about moving portfolio allocations in taxable accounts. I have plenty of stocks in my portfolio that I have held for close to or over 10 years. In my country there are also laws that if an investment has been held for more than 10 years its purchase price for tax purposes is calculated to be either original or 50% of current value (which ever is higher), which means that the on paper tax burden is reducing with time. In the current market situation I would like to reduce my portfolio risks, but selling anything will result in very large tax effects and as is demonstrated in the article, that will in the end cause tax friction that will be money lost in the long term. What strategies are others using in these situations? I have a very basic strategy of keeping "new money" on the sidelines (mostly on short term bonds, which as an investment is pretty bad besides the low risk) when I see risks increasing and investing that into stock market when situation gets worse. In the current situation I have also been thinking of adding around 2 year hedge on the portfolio through either options/warrants/bear fund. That is pretty expensive often, but adding that for even 20-30% portfolio value would mean that when I want to get fully invested again I would have a lot of dry powder and I would not create the tax friction on my current investments.

How can I I easily track the 2-10 Treasury Yield Spread over time Posted: 25 Aug 2019 11:18 AM PDT I know you can track it here https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/data-chart-center/interest-rates/Pages/TextView.aspx?data=yield But I can't easily see the history and have to "math" everytime, and be actively watching it. I'm looking for a chart (ticker symbols?) that I can easily track its history over time. I also use TradingView but doing see any formulas for this specifically. What do u guys use?

There are gold and silver miners listed Posted: 25 Aug 2019 06:40 PM PDT Due to the massive number of comments I have read here about metals, I would just like to let you know that there are miners that mine these metals. And they are listed and make money. They have gone up anywhere from 100-1000%. You don't have to just buy physical and realize a gain of 20%. [link] [comments] |
Won't Uber and Lyft simply raise prices? Posted: 25 Aug 2019 05:29 PM PDT I keep seeing threads about how they are doomed. At some point won't they just charge the consumer more to increase margins? It's still like 4x cheaper than taking a cab and many would be willing to pay more. Self driving shit is still years away. [link] [comments] |
