    Strategy going into 2020 for buying selling and holding stocks.

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 12:04 AM PST

    So we had an amazing 2019 for stocks and everyone did very well..moving forward to 2020 I'm personally reducing my holdings (I'm quite invested) so I want to get a bit more in cash. Obviously I'm not trying to time the market but I'm more reducing my positions so I am not over leveraged in the market.

    How do you see the Outlook for 2020? Will we continue this insane bull run? Will it be flat? Will we have a recession? Obviously nobody knows but I'm curious to see what everyone is planning to do with their portfolios!

    Trading in 401K

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 06:36 AM PST

    I own 950 ATT equity. I want to free up the cash for JAN 20 assignments on deep ITM AMD calls. Would like to capture dividend before equity sell (and possibly own the 950 long term w/re-purchase). Bullish on T for next 3 months.

    Average cost of 950 is 39.54

    Inside a 401K - not concerned about short term gain taxes or wash sales etc.

    + 13 40c MAR '20 on 12/24 (T =39.00 bought @,81)

    + 6 39c MAR '20 on 12/27 (T =39.20 bought @ 1.41)

    T ex-date is 010920 = .52

    If T closes at 40.52 on ex-date and I can sell equity at >= 40.52 post ex and before 011520 then possibly

    • re-purchase for cost of 40.81 w/ 40c MAR '20 (the 40.81 cost (excludes a .52 div which was captured)
    • extra calls are my bullish leaning in bull market

    Does it seem reasonable to sell 500 stock @ 39.50 (soon) and then write 5 40p JAN '20 for approx 1.05 credit (as opposed to taking those 500 through ex-date) ?

    1-2% profit with Large amount investment

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 12:43 PM PST

    Hi r/stocks , I'm new to reddit and this post but I've been thinking of doing something stock/investing related recently just from basic general knowledge and a bit of youtube research nothing much. I've been doing a small bit of paper trading in various blue chip stocks and only a small but of actual real money trading with $200 but I'm 19 and I've recently landed a $1220 weekly income as an independent contractor in logistics and I now have $13000 with more coming in every week. I've said this idea to my old fashioned parents which their response is "Lifes not that easy" and that kind of ideology. The stock broker I've been looking on is Etoro which seems pretty bad compared to the American apps but Etoro is what I've found to be the best available in Ireland as the main ones like We _ Bull and Robin _ hood aren't yet. But with my 13,000 leveraged X5 which is $65,000 worth of an investment which is available to every retail investor on Etoro at a $14.41 daily rate and a weekend rate of $43.23. What is the catch with investing in Big stocks such as Coca Cola, Tesla, Apple, Facebook etc and cashing out exactly when it rises over 1% which it seems to do at least once a week bought at the right time like when its in the red. 1% of 65,000 is $650 minus however many days it takes. It would take weeks for the fees to accumulate $650 which is to say it only rises one percent. Can anyone. Is it possible to rinse and repeat this process to hopefully accumulate over $1000 a week or is there something huge that I'm missing out on. P.S. I know it isn't certain that stock prices will rise and have the ability to fall and cost me a considerable amount of capital as well as running into arrears but this is all said with the intent of researching into big companies which are nearly guaranteed to not fall dramatically soon and have a high probability of rising even by %0.5 over a few days which would still fetch a profit of 325 with the figure mentioned at present.

    I would greatly appreciate other peoples opinions on this and I'm sure this has been said millions of times before so I want to know what's the catch before I do something foolish. Thanks Johnny from Ireland

    What are the best stocks for 2020?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 12:10 PM PST

    I have some money to spend on the stock market; however, I'm not too sure what industries and companies to look at. Currently, I am invested heavily in solar energy, which has been a great investment so far. I, however, want to look elsewhere, prompting me to ask those who lurk on this subreddit about the best stocks for 2020.

    Verizon discussion

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 08:15 AM PST

    I did an analysis of my portfolio and discovered it was very low in the communication sector. I want to diversify and I stumbled upon Verizon. I have done some research on it but I would like to hear alternative opinions. I like to hold stocks forever too by the way, so I am ok with the fact that is trading at a slight premium.

    And if you are super bullish on another stock in the communication sector please include this and why. I am flexible to change.

    Stocks, ISAs or both?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 11:31 AM PST

    Hey all,

    Im a 25 year old from the UK currently living in New Zealand (working visa, not a resident). I've been in the stock realm for about a year or 2 now, and I've recently gotten a much higher paying job that allows me to save even more money after monthly bills, rent etc, which has resulted in me having about £10k to play with (after putting another £5k emergency money stashed away). About £4k of this I've delegated to various stock picks like Tesla, Apple, AMD, Boeing etc, but the rest I've been considering putting into a Vanguard LifeStrategy ISA on a 5 year plan, just to diversify my investments further and to take advantage of the tax-free ISA wrappers.

    My question might be more relevant to UK-based folks in here, but would anyone recommend doing an ISA as oppose to putting the rest of this money into individual stocks, ETFs, etc? Or is there something else I should consider? Vanguard's LifeStrategy funds look pretty well diversified and offer a fairly decent return (taking the last 5 years into account and doing an average % return as a rough idea for what my ROI could be), but naturally I'd like to be as efficient with my money as possible and I thought I'd get some ideas/opinions/recommendations from you all before I go making any decisions, seeing as 5 years is a big commitment to locking away this money with monthly payments into it.

    Right now my eyes are on the LifeStrategy80 or 100 on a 5 year plan. From what I've read, it's recommended to do at least 5 years for greater returns and to really allow the pot to grow.

    Any advice is welcome.

    Options vs common stock competition

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 09:12 AM PST

    I spent the last six months trading options and have found that I made way more in a short amount of time than I ever did holding common stock for the last 3 years. In fact 4 months back someone at my work and I had a competition to see who could get to 100k first, she started with 80k in common stock and I started with 20k cash with the strategy of only options trading. I saw a lot of success at first, but I had a major setback and ended up losing 30k 2 months in and had to recover. Funny enough she maybe lost 2k at one point. We checked back in with each other a week ago and I lost with the end result of 101k to 87k. We agreed to look at my returns post tax (I hope that doesn't hurt too bad) since we're both learning about options.

    What are some common strategies with trading/investing in options? I know there are a ton of books out there, but which ones made you the most money?

    Who’s making the decision to buy or sell stocks on websites?

    Posted: 29 Dec 2019 08:06 AM PST

    Are these automated through some calculation or are there actual experts who assess which stocks are buy, sell, or hold stocks? Who uses Zacks or Fidelity to make these determinations? Why or why not?

    How are you guys playing Apple between now and January’s earnings report ?

    Posted: 28 Dec 2019 07:15 PM PST

    Particularly in light of several analysts speculating the end of the bull rally for various 'historical' reasons, vs apples renewed vigour from amongst other things, intensifying services growth and successful accessories categories and upcoming '5g supercycle' and rumours of AR glasses.

    Slack stock analysis and investment thesis (bullish)

    Posted: 28 Dec 2019 06:31 PM PST

    tl;dr: Slack fair present value is between 11 and 16 billion USD.

    Slack's stock is down 50% from its 2019 peak.

    It is crucial to take a long term perspective on the company and its growth.

    Slack can be a good investment but you have to apply the right strategy.

    Slack's stock ($WORK) is 50% below its 2019 peak. The last blows came from Microsoft announcing the growth of its competing product - Microsoft Teams.

    This is an excellent opportunity for me to discuss how I approach investing in a company like Slack. I will look at growth, price to revenue ratio and discounted value in my model.

    What Will Trigger Markets in 2020?

    Posted: 28 Dec 2019 06:30 PM PST

    After a banner year across the board practically, what's going to pour some cold water on markets in 2020? My guess is inflation will rear its ugly head. Labor market is super tight, wages are going to push inflation up next year. The Fed made a mistake cutting rates this year and will make things worse when they need to raise them again, admitting they were wrong. Rate cuts really kept the wind in stock's sails later half of the year. Inflation scare will cause an immediate near term correction in equity prices. They'll take another leg down when the Fed is forced to start raising again but they'll be too slow to react. Inflation will rise much higher than expected causing panic. Rates will soar, relatively speaking, and equities will correct further as investors pile into higher interest rate bonds. Could easily see S&P 500 giving back half its 2019 gains while the 10 year Treasury hits 3.5 - 3.75%. Anyway, interested in hearing some thoughts and good luck to all!

    Uber Stock Price Question

    Posted: 28 Dec 2019 03:35 PM PST

    Hi Redditors, I recently saw an article below that the former Uber CEO, Travis Kalanick, sold rest of his 5.8 million shares on December 20th.

    My general understanding in how stock price fluctuates is through supply and demand (more stocks investors buy a single company the number of outstanding shares goes down and hence the stock price goes up, and vise versa.).

    Since Kalanick sold the rest of his shares of 5.8 million, I would expect the stock price the plummet on December 20th since that's pretty significant amount of stocks to be sold, but looking back around that time, Uber stock price hovered between $30-$31.

    Can someone explain why the stock price didnt drop as much as it should have?
