| A ‘growing club’ of ‘very powerful countries’ is steering away from using the dollar Posted: 30 Oct 2019 09:39 PM PDT The U.S. dollar has been the world's major reserve currency for decades, but that status could come under threat as "very powerful countries" seek to undermine its importance, warned Anne Korin, from the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security. Korin says China, Russia and the European Union are some "major movers" behind this push. One of those reasons driving their shift away from the dollar is the prospect of being subject to U.S. jurisdiction if they transact in dollars. [link] [comments]  |
| You're the product at your brokerage now Posted: 30 Oct 2019 08:20 PM PDT The saying goes: "when the service is free, you're not the customer. You're the product." As commissions fall to zero across the major online brokerages, how are we being monetized already (mutual fund fees, what else?) And how are we going to be monetized in the near future that we aren't even thinking about yet? I just keep wondering when I'm going to find the drain on my investments that I didn't realize existed. Because nothing's free. [link] [comments]  |

| Why Foreign Investors are Putting Their Money in Thailand? Posted: 30 Oct 2019 12:30 PM PDT I just want a foreigner point of view for educational purposes. I live in Thailand, and I do not believe that Thailand and its Thai Baht is not a good investment, definitely in the upcoming years. In my opinion as a Thai person: 1) Our prime minister, general Prayut Chanocha, is not capable of managing the country. He has no idea about economic and the strength of the Baht is rising unnecessarily. 2) Our prime minister is hurting the country by borrowing unnecessarily funds for his unnecessary campaigns. 3) The Thai's economy internally is extremely bad. Nobody is using their money. Most of the companies (in the Thai stock market) are performing not so well. Most companies profit are reduced to like less than half this year compared to last year. 4) The Thai's economy externally, export, is not performing well because the strength of the Thai baht and the weaknesses of Thailand's trade partners currency. 5) Thai companies are laying off workers because of the bad economy. 6) Thailand's household debt is so high right now. Combining with the layoff workers, financial institutions have a high chance of not recieving their money back. 7) Thai's household debt is mainly comprised with assets that are not capable of making a return (eg. house, car, mortorcycle) [link] [comments]  |
| What do we do if interest rates go negative? Posted: 30 Oct 2019 08:35 PM PDT If the Fed cuts rates over the next years down to 0% and then potentially -X%, what are we supposed to do with our investments? Would buying long term bond funds before this happens be the way to go? What are you supposed to do with your non-tax deferred investments also? I don't think Mr. Market likes negative rates in the long run. [link] [comments]  |
| Starbucks beats same-restaurant sales estimates on digital push Posted: 30 Oct 2019 01:40 PM PDT 'Oct 30 (Reuters) - Starbucks Corp SBUX.O beat quarterly same-restaurant sales estimates on Wednesday, as the world's largest coffee chain's loyalty program and new delivery options boosted demand and helped fend off competition, especially in the U.S. and China. Shares rose 3% in extended trading after as of the Seattle-based company also forecast 2020 comparable restaurant sales largely above estimates. Starbucks has beefed up its "Rewards" program with perks including access to Happy Hours events and the ability to skip lines with a mobile payment option as it battles rising competition from niche independent coffee shops in the United States, as well as local startups such as Luckin Coffee LK.N in China. The program saw its active membership in the United States jump 15% to 17.6 million in the fourth quarter.

| Looking for business ideas related to investments Posted: 31 Oct 2019 02:06 AM PDT I am looking for ideas on how I can earn more income by doing similar activities or similar businesses while not doing the same things that I already am doing. I have been in technology professionally from 2001-2018. On the side, I have been investing in the stock market since my first corporate technology job in 2001; but most of my earlier years were really just doing my best as a novice retail trading that gained a lot of experience while paying fat "tuition fees". In 2016, however, I finally pieced together an operation (my principles, my approach to analyzing instruments that I trade, trade strategy, risk management and compounding) that has thus far been consistently successful. I opened a new non-retirement account with about $70,000 in 2016. By 2018, I had grown the account to $500,000. That is when I decided to leave my corporate job to operate in the stock market as a business full time. To minimize my burn rate and potential risk of losing my house if things go horribly wrong, I sold my house that same year. The house netted me $300,000 from the sale. I utilized that $300,000 into my trading account for a total of $800,000 to operate with. I have since been renting an apartment for a roof over my head and I have grown my account to about $1,150,000. Most of my trading requires me to wait after my trade plan has been executed. This means I have a lot of time on my hands that I try to use productively. So, everyday via an online private group chat (and web conference as needed) I mentor 16 other amazing and wonderful individuals in compounding their financial wealth for free. I have been mentoring some of these individuals for about 1.5 years. Their returns range from 30% to 100% over a one year period. If I were not confident about my operation, I would not have mentored them in the first place. I am passionate and very skilled at how I operate, and I believe in lifting up good people; and I would want to continue doing this until my time is up. I considered managing other people's portfolios, but the cost and complexities of managing other people's money as a licensed firm is not really where I want to go. I love teaching and have considered teaching others for a fee; but I believe courses in class room settings are not sufficient. Like plumbers or electricians that require long term apprenticeships before they start their own businesses, I also believe commitment of mentorship for 1 to 2 years would be needed to help someone learn to fish on their own consistently and successfully in the stock market. The individuals I have been mentoring for the past year and a half has been for free. I feel great about the quantitatively impactful value that I am adding to their lives and I enjoy it; but ironically, I do not want to provide mentorship as a full-fledged business because it would suck up too much of my energy and time. This is why I am frustrated and looking for business ideas that are related to what I am doing; but not doing exactly the same thing. Any constructive feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 30 Oct 2019 11:56 PM PDT Wanted to get some of your guys' opinion on alibaba as a medium to long term hold (1-3 years). It's my favourite out of the bigger Chinese stocks... or would you play $kweb and $fxi instead? [link] [comments]  |

| How to analyze a stock signal app to find search criteria? Posted: 30 Oct 2019 10:59 PM PDT Recently I stumbled across a stock signal app on Instagram that I've been checking out. I'm doing their free 7 day trial to see what their deal is. If you couldn't guess, they release signals of stocks with a buy below price, and a sell above price. They have a historical list that show closed signals. Of the 20 most recent signals, 18 reached their target with an average of 3.74% gain. The 2 that didn't reach their target averaged a 7.28% loss. The reason the losses are so much higher is because the signal comes with a stop loss price, and if the stock falls below that price then it is deemed closed. The stop loss prices they use however are often pretty ridiculous for some stocks (Example that I saw: Buy below- $203.26. Stop loss- $152.36) I've always been a trader that likes to do my own due diligence when it comes to trading. While I feel that this app historically is quite successful, I still would like to do my own research. I'm very curious as to what the selection criteria is in order for the app to open a signal. I never want to rely on one source to provide the information I need, as I would rather learn it myself. My question is pretty straight forward. Would it be possible to use the historical data that this app provides to come up with a list of indicators that explain why a certain stock gets alerted? Thanks everyone! [link] [comments]  |
