WeWork Is the Most Ridiculous IPO of 2019 Posted: 27 Aug 2019 07:07 PM PDT Pretty good article that sums up all of the problems related to WeWork (IPO expected in September). Here's my tl;dr (although don't quote me one it):

Key yield curve inverts to worst level since May 2007, 30-year rate under 2% Posted: 27 Aug 2019 09:04 AM PDT |
Stock dividends are yielding more than the 30-year Treasury note for the first time in a decade Posted: 27 Aug 2019 12:16 PM PDT https://www.cnbc.com/2019/08/27/the-30-year-treasury-yield-is-now-yielding-less-than-stocks.html For the first time since 2009, S&P 500′s dividend is yielding more than 30-year Treasury notes. The only other similar inversion in the past four decades came in March 2009 — a low point of the financial crisis, according to data from Bespoke Investment Group. "For an investor looking to hold something for the long term, it makes equities relatively attractive," says Bespoke's Paul Hickey. [link] [comments] |

My trading strategy..,this is what works for me. Posted: 27 Aug 2019 09:11 AM PDT About me: A (former) long-time investment adviser who is a very active trader. I've also worked in private equity for several years. I'm here to share my strategy on trading and significantly increasing overall income. I have "rules" that I trade by. They work for me. They're guidelines. They may or may not be for you. I will share my trades and results. I will not discuss or offer opinions on the fundamentals of a company. I'm happy to comment (if asked) as to what trade I would enter on a company. I am not licensed to give advice. What I do is rather simple - yet most advisers/investors know nothing about it. It's called covered-call writing. I'm sure many here have heard of it or used this strategy. There are various ways to implement using covered calls - I keep it as simple as possible. Essentially - you are buying a stock, then selling the right to have the shares taken away from you at a particular price, on a specific date. For selling that right - you receive a premium (income). My personal trading rules: 1 - Invest in companies you know, and want to be invested in. Quality companies. 2 - Diversify industries. Banks/steel/transportation/tech/pharma etc. 3 - Hedge. I keep at least one precious metal company in my portfolio at all times. 4 - Keep your emotions in check. The market is fluid. You will be right. You will be wrong. Don't chase a stock in any direction. 5 - Use income to average down. If you are invested in several companies, not all will move in tandem. Take some of the income you've generated to average down. 6 - Sell the call option right after the purchase of shares or previous option expiry. 7 - If you use margin - only use half of what you're allowed to. Use none if you don't understand the risks. 8 - Stay short-term. The call options I sell are typically 2 to 4 weeks out. I can always by back shares if they're taken away. 9 - Be patient. Don't stare at your screen all day (unless this IS your career). 10 - Try to have an option(s) expiring every week. Generate income weekly. I will put up a couple examples as well.

The end of cheap shipping for Chinese sellers (to the US)? Posted: 27 Aug 2019 09:22 AM PDT Pasted text below in case the amazon post is deleted... will be interesting to see how this impacts companies like Alibaba. Are their US user numbers significant enough for this to have an impact on their earnings?

Bloomberg Article: What Warren Buffett's silence says about U.S. Equities. Posted: 27 Aug 2019 07:00 AM PDT Maybe Warren Buffett Is Warning Us About Something 1) Warren Buffett has been conspicuously quiet about the economy. 2) The last time Berkshire Hathaway had this much cash piled ($122 billion) up was before the last recession.

Posted: 28 Aug 2019 03:40 AM PDT I didn't say that it would be 4.0% (or well on its way there) JEFF GUNDLACH did. A mega expert. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 28 Aug 2019 01:16 AM PDT I'm young but my retirement is squared away, I'm paying into a pension (but I don't trust the government) so I'm also contributing 20% into a post tax 457 which is in a lifecycle. I have saved up some extra cash that I would like to invest in lieu of sitting in a bank doing nothing. Most investment advise I have gotten so far is to invest in a Vanguard 500 index or similar. My question is why? I like the idea of diversity so mural finds make sense. I look for mutual funds and I'm finding some that are showing double digit returns for over ten years. I.E. (FBSOX, FACSX, FADAX, BFOCX).... so why would I invest in an index that's averaging 7-8% when these mutual funds seem to be consistently doing better? Help me investing gurus! [link] [comments] |

Posted: 27 Aug 2019 05:57 AM PDT I wonder what you think about the finance profession. Banks and Funds seem to be hiring more and more software developers while laying off finance guys. Also there are a lot of finance people on the market. What do you think, is there a future of finance careers? [link] [comments] |
Sterling falls as doubts grow about Brexit talks Posted: 28 Aug 2019 03:30 AM PDT |
Posted: 28 Aug 2019 02:56 AM PDT Hey guys, Do you know how to profit from Elon Musk's company like Space X, Neuralink, Boring Company, Open AI. Are there any stocks which make profits by delivering assets to them? I know that there is no straight way to invest in them, but I what to make money with these companies too. Maybe we can find a way to make money too. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 27 Aug 2019 12:42 PM PDT Robo advisors have been around for a while now and i'm wondering how they're doing in today's volatile scene. Anyone care to share what robo advisor they're with and how it's been doing these past few months? [link] [comments] |
Roku is growing even faster than Netflix did at the same point, analyst says Posted: 27 Aug 2019 07:43 AM PDT Am I missing something? How is this company doing so well? Since all it does manufactures a variety of digital media players that allow customers to access Internet streamed video or audio services through televisions. [link] [comments] |
To hold or not to hold? Employee stock purchase plan (ESSP) Posted: 27 Aug 2019 07:09 PM PDT I work for a large size financial/tech firm that offers a 15% discount for company stock that is bought on a quarterly basis (you buy in at either the offer price or strike price, whichever is lower). IMO I believe this company has a good direction for the future and is a very ethical company which has been paying a fair dividend for quite sometime. I understand having a diverse portfolio, but my question is how much of my take home pay to invest. I was thinking between 2-5%. My second ? was whether i should sell as soon as i can to reap the gain, or to hold for at least a year to avoid short term capital gains tax? Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

New to Options Trading, Looking for Advice on Learning Material Posted: 27 Aug 2019 05:27 PM PDT I have no experience in trading options (I do in equities) so I am looking for some good material to learn basic and advanced strategy. I understand the principles behind the options themselves and how they function but I have no experience in actually trading them. I see that there are endless youtube video's and pay to play courses on options trading but I am wondering if there are any courses or books that stand head and shoulders above the rest. My plan is to understand strategy before going into the market but I am looking for some help on where to start. [link] [comments] |
Is it true that ETF currency doesn't matter? Posted: 27 Aug 2019 04:32 AM PDT Hi all, I'm considering going long on VUSA, which is an Ireland domiciled S&P 500 ETF. Due to EU regulation I'm not able to invest directly into VOO, SPY, ... and need to use EU domiciled funds. The trick is that the base currency of the fund is GBP and not USD. Does the currency in which the ETF is bought (even though it holds US stock) a risk I need to consider (for example extreme pound devaluation in case of brexit)? [link] [comments] |
Question about a backdoor Roth Posted: 27 Aug 2019 05:57 PM PDT I went over the income limit in 2018 for a Roth IRA. Prior to 4/15/19 I converted my 2018 Roth contributions to a traditional IRA. I'm unclear on the backdoor Roth IRA. It looks like I could potentially take my traditional IRA contributions and convert them to a Roth IRA within 60 days? But if I already paid taxes on the income before it went into the Roth converted to traditional then pay taxes again when it goes back into a Roth I don't understand the benefit. Anybody have a good resource on this? Thanks [link] [comments] |
Value investing as prep for recession, buying growth during the recession? Posted: 27 Aug 2019 06:24 AM PDT So I know the whole adage about timing the market vs time in the market. That said, the general idea with growth vs value is that value performs better during a recession and growth performs better during bull years. How true is this historically, and if it is true, if I don't feel confident enough about a recession hapening to wait with cash to buy the drop, would it be a good idea to buy value when I feel a recession is coming within say 2 years, hold during the recession, and use funds during the recession to buy growth stocks at a discount, then liquidate the value stocks after the recovery so as not to lose principal value on those, and buy more growth during the bull years with the funds from the value stocks? Would this be a potentially good hedging strategy if I'm thinking a recession will happen in that timeline but I don't feel confident enough about it to risk missing out in the market if I'm wrong?
