    Stocks - I noticed that almost every big company had it‘s stock price explode in the last 2-3 years, why is that so? Is it all if speculative nature or did they really boost their sales 50%+?

    I'm an absolute beginner, so maybe there's a simple answer to that.

    I'm talking Apple, Nike, Google, Microsoft, Gazprom, Walmart, Google, Adidas, Tesco, McDonalds etc.

    Those are just big names I googled and almost all of them had grown immensely over the past 2 years, some of them solid 50%+

    Am I being too selective? I feel like investing in the 5 most common street brands 5 years ago would've made you a fortune by now

    I wrote some code to see how much news exposure financial trends/hypes (eg Fintech, Cannabis, 5G, AI etc) get on financial news outlets over time. I visualized the results, any suggestions for additional trends to monitor?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 05:33 AM PDT

    I was interested in on how certain financial trends catch exposure on financial news outlets, and if there is a snowballing effect to see there (results are shared on http://financial-trends.herokuapp.com/)

    Idea is to try to capture which trends are gaining traction over time, and see if sector prices follow. I added some trends to the dashboard, but I was wondering if there are any suggestions on trends I might have missed?

    I've seen some discussions about a huge bubble of startups about to burst. Is that realistic or pure sensationalism?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 12:46 PM PDT

    Lately I've been coming across similar threads online about a debt/speculation bubble that could cause a crash larger than 2008, or '29, or whatever the crash of example is. Since I don't really know much about the stock market it's hard to filter whether I should be terrified or not.

    Question Regarding Valuations

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 12:42 PM PDT

    I've been doing extensive research into the streaming industry, an industry once valued with a multiple similar to tech. companies, and realized that I may not understand market movements as well as I once thought.

    We begin by examining Netflix, which historically has been losing money, yet has an astronomical valuation based on a high multiple, and it is clear that the high multiple is "justified" because of the new space and perceived growth that Netflix has due to the relatively new industry. We then can look at Disney and Apple and see that they are valued at lower multiples because they operate in different spaces (Disney in entertainment/media and Apple in tech/services). However, these two companies are poised to be strong contenders in the streaming space.

    That being said, it looks like Apple and Disney have a high growth trajectory in this new industry which does not seem to be reflected in their valuations. I personally believe Disney will take off in this new space because of their IP and strong following. Will Disney ever see the multiples that Netflix has enjoyed? Any insight would be very helpful as I believe that Disney and Apple are both strong buys in this climate. Thanks!

    Why would you want to own a small cap ETF?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 06:46 AM PDT

    Hear me out for a sec, so this is an ETF that owns companies that have a smaller market cap but when the company start growing and are now considered a mid cap company the ETF no longer holds that company?

    How does that make sense?

    Is dividend declaration date known upfront?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 11:21 AM PDT

    All articles dealing on the dividend dates matter fail to specify whether the dividend declaration date is known upfront. As such, is it known upfront? If not, are there usual dates on which a specific company declares its dividends? Are there easy ways to predict that date?

    Bonus question: in your experience, do stock prices undergo sensible fluctuations as a result of dividend declarations?

    What are other indexes do you look into when buying ETFs?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 02:45 PM PDT

    I know the S&P 500 is the main one people are drawn towards. I don't see much people talking about DJIA or its ETFs. Same with the Russell 2000.

    Do you guys look into other industries as well. For example, cybersecurity ETFS, mobile payments, consumer staples, etc?

    Partial Shares (Or fractions, wtv)

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 02:37 PM PDT

    Does buying a fraction of a share makes me an official shareholder of a company? Would I still be eligible to attend shareholder meetings and stuff like that?

    Amount of years of projected cash flows in DCF massively changes valuation results ?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 12:30 PM PDT

    For example, if I forecast cash flow for FB for next 5 years, I get a value of $195, but if I forecast 10 years, I get $245. This makes sense as it calculates the perpetual growth rate right after forecasted cash flows are all used. Therefore, how many years is the right amount to project cash flow and is DCF accurate? It seems ridiculous that FCF would drop from about 10% to 2.5% from year 5 to 6 so I always thought the more years you can project would give a more accurate valuation, but it seems the other way around for my example. Thanks.

    Can price fixing allegations be made against companies that don’t provide a physical product?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 07:35 AM PDT

    Looking at things like VPN providers and similar services like cloud storage all seem to be priced within 10% of eachother and seem to rely solely on reputation to sell themselves. As well as their services boasting things like encryption types and security that is beyond the layman's comprehension to charge premiums. Is it possible for them to be investigated for price fixing amongst eachother?

    HMI

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 04:08 AM PDT

    Hi, I've been looking into $HMI (Huami) and just wanted to get a consensus on how my fellow redditors feel about the stock/company.

    I should note that I'm not looking for investment advice (no one should buy/sell stocks on someone else's opinion) Im just looking for a general consensus/mood on the stock as it's a small cap so there isn't much discussion on it.

    what does it mean when lots of investors buy a stock of a company in a short amount of time

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 03:48 AM PDT

    basically several big investing companies or individuals buy large amounts of stocks from a company in a short amount of time (ex 2 weeks)

    conversely what does it mean when several investors sell large amounts of stocks in a short amount of time.

    what are the implications and what might it mean about a stock or company at that time? sorry if this is a dumb question i am new to investing.
