    If your question is "I have $10,000, what do I do?" or other "advice for my personal situation" questions. If you are going to ask how to invest you should include relevant information, such as the following:

    • How old are you?
    • Are you employed/making income? How much?
    • What are your objectives with this money? (buy a house? Retirement savings?)
    • What is your risk tolerance? (Do you mind risking it at blackjack or do you need to know its 100% safe?)
    • What are you current holdings? (Do you already have exposure to specific funds and sectors?)
    • Any other assets? House paid off? Cars? Expensive significant other?
    • What is your time horizon? Do you need this money next month? Next 20yrs?
    • Any big debts?
    • Any other relevant financial information will be useful to give you a proper answer.

    Boeing posts first annual loss since the 90s

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 05:19 AM PST

    Apple is nearly already at $1.5T market cap

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 04:13 PM PST

    Not 18 months ago Apple hit the 1T valuation mark... what exactly have they done to almost gain another half TRILLION on top of that?

    I know they have begun to monetize services more heavily but is that really worth another half trillion?

    My girlfriend has $100k with a registered financial advisor, I have a huge hunch he’s not doing well with the money. What questions should we ask?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 12:53 AM PST

    1) Cost of managing the money?
    2) How much has she deposited, those dates and the current value?
    3) I believe they send her a quarterly summary or a annual overview, but she doesn't receive them due to them being sent to her elderly mother. If she can access these digitally?

    Coronavirus - is wallstreet underplaying the impact or is the market simply efficient?

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 11:20 PM PST

    The death toll has now risen to 170 and the virus has now spread to a few more countries. These news came to be after the market recovered from its initial 500bps loss.

    I am wondering, is this a result of the hypothesis that the market is simply efficient as in Mr. Market understands that no matter what the economy will recover regardless of pandemic? OR too much news (i.e: Fed, consumer reports) is leaving the Market in a state of delusion?

    What is your take?

    Fidelity announces fractional-share/ ETF investing

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 07:30 AM PST

    CNBC

    Fidelity PR

    " The largest online broker said Wednesday its clients can now trade fractions of stocks and exchange traded funds.

    This "dollar-based trading" option will allow individual investors to own any company they want, regardless of the share price. If a client has $100 to invest, they can still own e-commerce giant Amazon, who's stock price is around $1,850 per share.

    "Customers can now own a piece of their favorite companies and ETFs based on how much they want to invest, independent of the share price," head of Fidelity's brokerage platform Scott Ignall said in the release."

    Good for them! Schwab announced it but Fido rolled it out first. This is a big hit for M1 Finance, I guess. And RH as well.

    Alternative assets/investments

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 09:17 PM PST

    What's everyone's thoughts on alternative assets? I.e. investing in real estate, collectibles, cars, startups, fine wines, farmland, art, metals etc..

    Has anyone seen major profits in these sections or notice less volatility when the market is in swings?

    My buddy is investing into Fine wines recently and has me thinking about diversifying my portfolio.

    Thanks in advance!

    Fed holds rates steady, affirms commitment to higher inflation

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 11:28 AM PST

    https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/29/fed-decision-interest-rates.html

    TL;DR

    • The committee adjusted the language in its statement to reflect that policy is geared toward "inflation returning to the Committee's symmetric 2 percent objective." That language differed from the long-standing boilerplate statement that the Fed was looking to get inflation "near" the benchmark that it considers healthy for a growing economy.

    • Consumer spending has been deemed "Moderate" where previously the Fed had considered Consumer Spending strong

    • The Fed boosted the interest on excess reserves rate 5 basis points to 1.6%.

    • Repo operation will continue through April

    • The decision to keep rates as is was unanimous, diverging from descent over original rate cuts in 2019.

    The case as to why DCF is flawed

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 05:07 AM PST

    Brad Slingerlend recent newsletter (snippet at https://twitter.com/bradsling/status/1222018946330554368) outlined the flaws of DCF and why using something like (FCF Yield + Growth_10y(FCF_per_Share)) is a better measure of expected returns. This sparked quiet a debate.

    Curious what the take of this community on this is?

    Long Term All World ETF strategy that can survive currencies collapse?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 04:58 AM PST

    Hi!

    I'm about to turn 20, and for some months I've been thinking about a long term investing strategy (next 50+ years from now).
    I've come up with a simple but logical answer: a single ETF that tracks the entire world, both developed and emerging markets; something that follows MSCI ACWI or FTSE All-World.
    I live in Europe so I'll invest in EUR, even though the vast majority of indexes are listed in USD, but no problems with that (let me know if this is incorrect, please).
    I'm 99% sure about this, I don't care about short term drops and crashes, my only concern is the eventual collapses of currencies, or the change towards digital ones.
    If the USD/EUR should fail, my investments will continue to have value, but what will happen?
    They'll be converted in the new currency or the uselessness of the old currency will drag them down to zero?
    What happens to the hyperinflation periods that could happen before the collapse? Could it be a great time to act?

    Obviously none of us have the famous crystal ball, but I'd like to know the possible sceneries.

    Any advice would be priceless, thank you!

    Brexit gains

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 04:15 AM PST

    Hey everyone,

    I realise that most of the people are focusing on the American stock market here, but I was wondering if any of you still had any plans to monetise on brexit tomorrow?

    Britain is leaving with a 'transition period' until the end of the year, which means there will be no immediate impact on their economy, but I'd still expect at least some moves to be made.

    I have my eye on VOD and ULVR, assuming they'll drop a bit after market close since most of their revenue is produced outside of the UK.

    Do you have any other picks? What's your play there?

    How do US equities ETFS in Europe move prices considering trading hours?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 03:23 AM PST

    When US markets move late in the US trading day after London markets are closed, normally a US Equities ETF listed in London would move correspondingly at market open in London.

    What if during the early London trading day, US futures are pointing to losses. Will those losses be priced into the London ETF as soon as markets open in the US, or the next day only?

    In other words, when do price movements in US trading hours affect the price of the London listed ETF holding those US equities?

    What’s a good investment that’s not dividends, but pay monthly?

    Have you ever thought about making investments based on the person who is running the company rather than looking at any stats about how a company is currently performing?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 02:34 AM PST

    Ive spent a lot of time learning about super successful people and how they act/what they do. For example i went in on Tesla without much of any knowledge on how the company was doing. I had spent a good amount of time learning about elon and looking at his past while hearing what he was planning for TSLA. Im sold on Elon, not Tesla.

    Weed ETFs at all time lows

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 06:43 AM PST

    Or at least pre-hype levels. Factoring known information about oversupply, regulation, and other growing pains, what are your opinions on the sector as a fun-money play?

    I've just gone long myself today (3% of portfolio). I've casually watched the sector over the years, didn't touch it during the initial hype. Happy to see it return to near all-time lows so I can set and forget and check back in two decades.

    Your thoughts about future consolidation of the industry?

    Not a noob. Former derivatives trader. Sincerely curious about opinions.

    EPS relation to Debt/loan, and debt/loan payoff

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 01:20 AM PST

    since EPS is earnings per share, how does debt/loans and the payoff of debt/loan relate to EPS?

    I was wondering if someone give a simple example to illustrate it. Im trying to understand if EPS shows debt/loan and/or getting paid off.

    Adding Funds/Rebalancing Self Directed Portfolio

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 02:57 PM PST

    So I understand that you need to continuously add money to portfolio for DCA, and to have more money in the market with more time to grow.

    However, I am confused on how you decide which holdings to allocate your funds. If you have $1k to invest, how do you divide your money up for each fund since the price will dictate the amount of shares you can buy?

    Appreciate the knowledge!

    Is the investing app DriveWealth available in Israel?

    Posted: 30 Jan 2020 12:33 AM PST

    I signed up for a DriveWealth account and it allowed me to sign from Israel but it is not available in the Israel App Store or Google Play Store...

    So I have no way of actually using it although it claims it's available worldwide.

    Infographic: Value vs. Growth excess return

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 09:09 AM PST

    Infographic

    Full Russell Investments blog post.

    TL;DR:

    • It has become increasing difficult to delineate between value and growth, as many funds hold overlapping securities.

    • Over the long term, value has outperformed growth. But from the 2008 Global Financial Crisis to present day, growth has outperformed. This leads us to think value may be coming back soon to rule the roost.

    • We believe a properly constructed portfolio should be diversified across (growth and value) factors to avoid periods of under-performance over the entire market cycle, in much the same way as we champion global diversification.

    App/Website to track and visualize your portfolio

    Posted: 29 Jan 2020 01:49 PM PST

    Hi, I invest with degiro, abut they don't provide charts to visualize how your portfolio is behaving.

    I've come across Portfolio Visualizer but, from what I've seen, they don't let you pick specific etfs and stocks, only broad market indexes.

    My question is then, if there's an website or app where you can enter what stocks/etfs/etc you own and the buying price, and it will provide you charts of your portfolio behaviour and profit?
