| Posted: 02 Mar 2020 09:41 PM PST Hey everyone, new contributor here, but no stranger to investing! I'm looking to practice developing/writing my own ideas. Thought this could be a good place to test the waters. Feedback and disagreements are always welcomed. Here's my market outlook in brief (TLDR): I'm cautious on risk assets in the near-term amid COVID-19 and believe investors are expecting too much from central banks. More detail: This is a fairly remarkable point in history. The recent outbreak has garnered more attention than any other major public health threat since 2008, according to my Google search analysis (https://imgur.com/a/FnWc4bR ). China's large share of world GDP and the globalization of supply chains are reasons why we shouldn't gloss over coronavirus. In my view, global economic activity and earnings growth could take a heavy hit, albeit temporarily, due to the containment efforts of governments and corporations. We already saw a sharp tumble in Chinese manufacturing activity on Sunday, in fact the worst since the global financial crisis. While textbooks tell us that the stock market is a discounting mechanism looking far into the future, I believe investors are near sighted. With that said, a 10-15% selloff isn't the worst we could see. Furthermore, last week's repricing only brings the S&P 500 index level back to where it was in October 2019 - not bad at all. U.S. stocks somewhat rebounded this Monday on hopes for central bankers to come and save the day with rate cuts. I highly doubt monetary policy is an effective solution in this event - while the Fed can provide market liquidity, they cannot mobilize people to travel and get on planes. While I expect some policy intervention, I don't believe central bankers will cut as much as investors want them to, which could be a headwind for stocks. [link] [comments]  |
| Berkshire Boosts Delta Air Stake by $45 Million Amid Market Rout Posted: 03 Mar 2020 12:27 AM PST Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Inc. boosted its stake in Delta Air Lines Inc. last week, taking advantage of bargain prices amid market declines. Berkshire acquired more than 976,000 shares for about $45.3 million, or an average price of $46.40, according to a filing Monday. Delta stock dropped about 20% last week as markets plummeted on concern about the coronavirus. Buffett, Berkshire's chairman and chief executive officer, is famous for buying during declines, saying he's betting on the long-term health of the U.S. economy. Berkshire's holding in Delta swelled to about 71.9 million shares with the Feb. 27 purchases, the filing shows. [link] [comments]  |

| Jack Welch, former chairman and CEO of GE, dies at 84 Posted: 02 Mar 2020 05:38 AM PST Jack Welch was a railroad conductor's son who rose to chairman and CEO of General Electric. During the 20 years he led the conglomerate, its market value grew from $12 billion to $410 billion. Fortune magazine once called him "manager of the century," but he also was known as "Neutron Jack" for slashing tens of thousands of jobs. Jack Welch, a railroad conductor's son who became chairman and CEO of General Electric and led it for two decades, growing its market value from $12 billion to $410 billion, has died. He was 84. His death was announced Monday by his wife, Suzy. With a determination to win by busting up bureaucratic complacency, Welch earned two titles — "manager of the century," and "Neutron Jack" for slashing tens of thousands of jobs. Under his leadership, GE became the world's most valuable company, after Microsoft. Its fortunes later turned south. While at the helm, Welch bought and sold scores of businesses, expanding the industrial giant into financial services and consulting. GE Capital Bank was founded seven years into his tenure. His acquisitions included RCA — then-owner of NBC — and Kidder Peabody, the brokerage that became entangled in an insider trading scandal. He also streamlined the conglomerate's bloated bureaucracy by giving managers free rein to make changes they deemed beneficial to the bottom line. He invented the "vitality curve," in which managers were ranked into three groups. The top 20% "A" group was "filled with passion, committed to making things happen." The "vital" 70% "B" group was essential to the company and encouraged to join the A's. Then there was the bottom 10% "C" group. "The underperformers generally had to go," Welch said in his 2001 book, "Jack: Straight From the Gut." According to the book, "the workforce went from 411,000 to 299,000 during his first five years as chief. With such cuts, he acquired the derisive moniker named after the neutron bomb, which was designed to kill multitudes without destroying cities. Welch retired from GE in September 2001, days before the 9/11 attacks. Upon his retirement, The New York Times published an editorial that gushed over his professional record. "Mr. Welch was a white-collar revolutionary, bent throughout his career at G.E. on championing radical change and smashing the complacency of the established order," the editorial said. "His legacy is not only a changed G.E., but a changed American corporate ethos, one that prizes nimbleness, speed and regeneration over older ideals like stability, loyalty and permanence." For GE, the accolades turned to disbelief over the next decade and a half. Welch's hand-picked successor, Jeffrey Immelt, had to grapple with an era that included the dot-com bust, 9/11 and the Great Recession. As the company's fortunes evaporated, Immelt had to shed NBCUniversal and most of the once-too-big-to-fail GE Capital. He resigned in 2017. GE would get two more CEOs, John Flannery, who lasted a little more than a year and saw the company removed from the blue chip Dow Jones Industrial Average after 110 years, and Lawrence Culp Jr., who has been in charge since fall 2018. As of Monday, GE's stock was trading around $11 a share and its market capitalization was down to $95.1 billion. The house that Jack built — a sprawling global conglomerate that encompassed diverse parts including industrial manufacturing, entertainment, technology, finance and health care — fell out of fashion with investors, in favor of more focused enterprises. "Did the Jack Welch Model Sow Seeds of G.E.'s Decline?"' a headline in the Times read after Immelt's resignation. "It's always tough to follow a legend," New York University finance professor Aswath Damodaran said in that Times article. After leaving GE, Welch became a business consultant, engaged in public speaking and TV appearances, including on CNBC, wrote a column and books and opened a for-profit management institute. A staunch Republican, he accused President Barack Obama's economics team of cooking the books on employment data a month before the 2012 presidential election. The Labor Department reported that unemployment had fallen below 8% in September for the first time since the Great Recession. On Twitter, Welch blasted the data. "I wasn't kidding," Welch told The Wall Street Journal later that day. Survivors include his third wife, the former Suzy Wetlaufer, whom he married in 2004. He filed for divorce from his second wife, Jane, after reports surfaced that he was having an extramarital affair with journalist Wetlaufer. Four days before the divorce trial was to begin, Jack and Jane Beasley Welch reached a settlement that reports said was worth $180 million. He divorced his first wife, Carolyn, the mother of his four children, in 1987. [link] [comments]  |

| Why hasn’t China’s market crashed? Posted: 03 Mar 2020 01:35 AM PST I shorted China's market (MCHI) right after the initial 8% drop from coronavirus thinking 8% wasn't enough. The virus has only gotten worse since I entered the position yet the China market is slightly up from then. What in the world is going on? Half of the country is sitting at home for two months and only a 5% drop??? Does anybody have any idea what is going on? [link] [comments]  |

| I'm down $20,000 from shorting Tesla stock since last week. What do I do? Posted: 03 Mar 2020 05:07 AM PST A few months back I shorted Tesla and sold for a very small profit (few hundred) and it kept going down so I kicked myself for selling too early. After the drops last week I shorted 125 shares thinking it would continue to go down, and I do believe it id overvalued and a hype stock. Since I shorted it, the stock has shot almost straight up in value, leaving me with a $20,000 loss. If I sell I'll take the loss and if I don't I can continue to bet it'll go back down, but I am honestly afraid of making either decision. My entire portfolio is only $100,000 so this has wiped out a decade of gains from normal investing. I'm kicking myself, cried myself to sleep last night, and woke up seeing the stock was up even more today. I've learned to never short again. I've learned to invest and not gamble/trade. I know I made a bad decision and I'm looking for help. Thanks [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Mar 2020 04:52 AM PST I'm new to investing, I've done some research and I can't find a decent explanation for this. Apple traded in the $60-80 range in 2013, $80-110 in 2014, $110-130 in 2015. Why didn't the price per share decrease to $10-15 after the 7:1 split? I'm so curious to understand this. Thank you.

| G7 Leaders said....nothing new Posted: 03 Mar 2020 05:05 AM PST Expect a sell off I think it's just momentary though. The markets will continue to go up next sessions [link] [comments]  |
| CNBC has DOW futures up 100, yet directly under that DOW expected -300. Posted: 03 Mar 2020 04:58 AM PST What gives? The second story says Europe isn't going to lower rates so the markets are looking to go down. Just not updated fast enough or mixed signals? [link] [comments]  |
| China starting to recover from Coronavirus Posted: 02 Mar 2020 08:06 PM PST Traffic from major coastal cities: Shenzhen - unlike last week, it appears that improved traffic on Monday will continue through the week Shanghai - much improved Guangzhou - still below average but much improved over last week Others: Beijing - like Guangzhou Chongqing - improved but still weak Chengdu - back to normal Wuhan - locked down Changsha (next to Wuhan) - pretty normal considering location Interestingly: Milan - bad last week but seems to have started recovering too Ofc, we could be about to get another outbreak which kind of depends on the response of govts but there is definite improvement over last week. Fwiw, and I haven't been tracking this as closely, I think container ship arrivals started ticking up at Shanghai. Ports are still much weaker than usual though with many ships in port (although this effect is non-existent outside China, activity at Singapore for example still looks good). [link] [comments]  |

| Promotion offers for transferring stocks Posted: 02 Mar 2020 10:29 PM PST As it says, you could guess why I'm asking. I'm fed up with Robinhood, this isn't the first time orders won't fill and thier whole app malfunctioned on important trade days. Now, that's out the way, is there a platform that is currently promoting a bonus for transfering stocks over to thier platform? 0 commission would be ideal. Thanks all. [link] [comments]  |
