| Recession fears grow as German economy ‘could face the perfect storm,’ analyst says Posted: 07 Feb 2020 10:52 AM PST The prospect of an impending German recession jumped on Friday after the country published its worst industrial production figures since January 2009. Data released on Friday showed that German industrial production fell for the fifth time in the last seven months, dropping by almost 7% on the year. Exports have also barely grown in the month of December, up by just 0.1% month-on-month. The recent figures add to the ongoing pressure facing Europe's largest economy. Yesterday, official figures showed German factory orders contracted 2.1% month-on-month. "I am pessimistic about the German outlook because Germany could experience something like the perfect storm," Marcel Fratzscher, President of the DIW (German Institute for Economic Research), told CNBC's Squawk Box Europe Friday. He said that there are "so many risks," such as global trade slowdown, the coronavirus, geopolitical conflicts, a weak financial sector in Europe and Brexit, that the German government must take immediate action.

| Ford shakes up top management, promises faster turnaround. Posted: 07 Feb 2020 11:41 AM PST Article here: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ford-motor-coo/ford-shakes-up-top-management-promises-faster-turnaround-idUSKBN2011SO Just a follow up to earnings a few days ago, looks like this is the board/managements response and Jim Hackett might be in the crosshairs for removal if things don't improve. Joe Hinrichs is also retiring and perhaps falling the sword here a bit. Hackett and the new COO, Jim Farley were also apparently behind the redesign of the Mach-E and the push to put it under the Mustang name if anyone was curious how that came about so a lot of upper management might have their futures tied pretty closely to the success or failure of that specific vehicle at this point.

| U.S. consumer debt rose the most in five months in December Posted: 07 Feb 2020 04:33 PM PST U.S. consumer debt rose the most in five months in December, topping estimates as the amount of outstanding credit card and other revolving debt jumped by the most since 1998. Total credit climbed by $22.1 billion from the prior month, exceeding all economist estimates in Bloomberg's survey, after a downwardly revised $11.8 billion gain in the prior month, Federal Reserve figures showed Friday. Revolving credit outstanding, which includes credit card debt, increased by $12.6 billion.

| Posted: 07 Feb 2020 01:00 PM PST The Russel 2000 is still below its September 2018 high. What's going here? Or better yet what's going on with large caps that they have outperformed so much? Is it literally just because the S&P 500 is the index that all the passive money goes into? [link] [comments]  |
| Financial Crisis Observatory: Global Bubble Status Report Posted: 07 Feb 2020 04:37 PM PST FCO labels TSLA AND MSFT as bubbles. Whats is this FCO, and is it credible? [link] [comments]  |
| Why would you select a index fund tracking the S&P 500 instead of NASDAQ 100? Posted: 07 Feb 2020 08:32 PM PST There is an abundance of S&P 500 funds that is championed over and over again. I rarely see anyone championing funds that track the NASDAQ 100, or rarely even hear about them to begin with. If the NASDAQ 100 yields higher returns, why wouldn't we lean towards these options to get extra bang for our buck? [link] [comments]  |

Will Schwab continue dismantling TD? I can't imagine they would be so quick to ditch ToS for StreetSmart Edge... [link] [comments]  |
| Experience with FarmTogether or AcreTrader - FarmLand Investing Posted: 07 Feb 2020 04:04 PM PST Hey everyone, just wanted to get some insight on farmland investing! Has anyone used either of the below platforms to invest? Would love to get some actual reviews of how the platforms work/function from an investor and how the whole process works. Both companies seem pretty legit but offering different investment! [link] [comments]  |
| Is motif investing down for anyone else? Posted: 08 Feb 2020 04:14 AM PST I haven't been able to access anything for a week or two. Does anyone else use the brokerage? Kind of concerning for an all digital platform to just be unavailable for so long. But maybe it's just me? Just looking for a sanity check. Update: it appears to be blocked by my ISP (Verizon Fios).

| What exactly does the RSI indicate? Posted: 07 Feb 2020 06:32 PM PST Obviously the RSI can determine semi-accurately when the security is being overbought and oversold. But what do the actual values mean? For example, on February 4th near market close, TSLA's peak RSI value was around 97. Does this mean that 97% of TSLA candlesticks for the time period were in the green? Something completely different? Or is there any actual meaning to it at all? [link] [comments]  |
| Nomenclature behind the Bull and Bear Market Posted: 08 Feb 2020 01:43 AM PST I had always believed that a Bear market was referred to as such by the Bear's tendency to hibernate and the Bull market was explained by the charging reputation of the animal but apparently there is a little more history behind the terminology. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7iK6HQvgKY - History of the Terminology https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/bull-and-bear-fights-california - History of Bears vs. Bulls [link] [comments]  |
| Twelve stock portfolio giving dividends every week. Is this viable? Posted: 07 Feb 2020 01:50 PM PST I stumbled on this article: https://www.dividend.com/how-to-invest/earn-dividend-income-every-week-12-stock-portfolio/ Essentially, these 12 stocks together will give you a dividend payout once per week over the course of a year. How viable is this strategy in terms of growth? What would be the difference between this portfolio and other well-constructed dividend portfolios? [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 08 Feb 2020 01:04 AM PST Hello people of reddit. I'm a 24 yr old male. I earn about just over 100k a year. I have all this money in my account and I'm not really sure what to do with it all I thought what if I can make more money with my money. Recently I ve been thinking about investing. But I have no idea where to start. I know nothing when it comes to investing. I just wanted to ask you all if you could point me in the direction of beginner books that can teach me about different types of investments. I don't know what stocks and shares are and whatever. I just want an introduction but I don't know where to start. Sorry if what I have typed is abit confusing but I have no idea what are the right questions to ask I hope I have made abit of sense.

| Amazons potential acquisition could = $$$$$$$ Posted: 07 Feb 2020 03:19 PM PST In 2012 everything seemed to be going wrong for Best Buy. The CEO had just resigned, employee engagement was at an all time low and like many brick & mortar retailers they were bleeding money.Fast forward to today, and you'll see Best Buy is killing the game. Their quarterly statements are decent but I get the feeling that some investors are anticipating something big. In April 2019 Amazon and Best Buy announced the electronics retailer would be the exclusive brick-and-mortar sales channel for a new line of TVs equipped with Amazon's Fire TV streaming video capabilities as well as the Alexa voice assistant technology. The pact gives Amazon broad distribution for its technologies in a physical location where the majority where people can go in and browse. It also provides the Amazon with sales associates to provide shoppers with tutorials for new technologies like Alexa that still call for some education. Call me crazy but I'm thinking Best Buy might get acquired by Amazon. If you agree or disagree, let me know why in the comments below. [link] [comments]  |

| Examples of climate-focused portfolios Posted: 07 Feb 2020 11:32 AM PST I'm interested in creating two experimental portfolios with $3-5k each to track over the next ~15 years. This is a small portion of my overall portfolio - more my hobby money. The portfolios have different core theses, both assuming climate change is occurring, and we'll see significant impacts within the next ~30 years. Portfolio 1: Governments will act en masse to curb climate change
Portfolio 2: Governments will fail to act in any significant way
The question: has anyone seen an example of a portfolio like this on the web? If not, would you be interested in following it? Any other thoughts? Thanks! [link] [comments]  |
| Mortgage-backed securities: safe now or still a pariah? Posted: 07 Feb 2020 10:32 AM PST I've been avoiding MBS through what amounts to a knee-jerk reaction to 2008. It occurred to me that maybe there's a value opportunity there? With jobs strong and inflation and interest rates holding steady, seems like an ideal environment for MBS. Pros/cons, and recommendations for worthwhile ETFs? [link] [comments]  |
| Having trouble finding this answer online about options trading. Posted: 07 Feb 2020 04:16 PM PST When you buy a call option and choose to excercise your option when it gets above the strike price, do you then at that moment pay for the 100 stocks at the strike price and keep all excess money above the strike price? Like does 100 shares of the stock at the strike price get deducted from your account? I'm very new and only trying to learn how things work with zero intention in the near future to trade options. Thanks for the knowledge! [link] [comments]  |
| BDX in a slump following lowered guidance Posted: 07 Feb 2020 12:14 PM PST Beat on revenue and earnings but lowered guidance. Stock was down 10% yesterday and another 2% today. Imo the company is being unfairly punished for being upfront about potential headwinds with its Alaris software system. [link] [comments]  |
