Posted: 05 May 2020 03:28 PM PDT I can't quite wrap my head around what's going on here. Both are large well established video game companies, both have beaten expectations with strong good earnings, both have done very well stock-wise in the past few weeks. But after earnings, one tanked while the other one mooned (guess which one I bought lol). Anyone know why such different stock behavior between the two companies?

Posted: 05 May 2020 01:31 PM PDT The Nasdaq is trending positive for the year... propelled by Tech stocks cashing in on user engagement during the lock downs. I saw an argument being made that the people who are being impacted the most economically right now (service industry etc.) account for an out-sized amount of the purchasing power counting towards user engagement at these big tech companies. If the users these tech companies rely on for user engagement numbers are worth less as a result of a deteriorating economy, how can they sustain value? EDIT: here's an example of what I'm talking about https://www.wsj.com/articles/facebook-warns-that-skyrocketing-usage-wont-lead-to-increased-revenue-11585083493 [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||

Abbott Labs Eclipses 1.4 Million Rapid Coronavirus Tests Shipped Across U.S. Posted: 05 May 2020 08:20 AM PDT It's about 10% from ATH. I think with trump's federal mandate for using their products that we could revisit ATHs by EOM. Last week had 1m tests shipped, at a rate of 400k tests/week we're looking at 3m by EOM and 5-6m by June.

Match reports record quarter despite pandemic's impact on Tinder Posted: 05 May 2020 04:35 PM PDT "We are seeing some headwinds to new users signing up and the motivation to pay. In aggregate, the initial impacts were most pronounced among older users and in markets where COVID-19 infection rates were highest. As the lockdowns have dragged on, we have seen some impact on younger male users, while there has been some recovery in the over 30 demographic. New sign ups and subscriptions are faring better among women than men as is the case for engagement. On Tinder, this led to first-time subscriber declines sequentially from February to March before stabilizing in April, though first-time subscribers were up meaningfully year-over-year in each month." Q1 2020 HIGHLIGHTS • Total Revenue grew 17% over the prior year quarter to $545 million. • Operating income was $135 million, an increase of 13% over the prior year quarter, and Adjusted EBITDA increased 11% over the prior year quarter to $172 million. • Net earnings attributable to shareholders increased 30% over the prior year quarter to $160 million and Diluted EPS increased 31% to $0.55. • Average Subscribers increased 15% to 9.9 million, up from 8.6 million in the prior year quarter, and ARPU increased 1 cent to $0.59. • Tinder Direct Revenue grew 31% year-over-year, driven by 28% Average Subscriber growth and 2% ARPU growth. Tinder Average Subscribers were 6.0 million in Q1 2020. • Completed private placement of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.125% Senior Notes due 2030 and increased availability under the revolving credit facility by $250 million to $750 million, while reducing interest rates on the revolving credit facility and term loan facility [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Is it dumb to both own SPHD and VYM? Posted: 05 May 2020 06:19 PM PDT Would it make sense to own both? One is more diverse and has a long track history but only pays dividends quarterly while SPHD pays monthly. Also, would anybody happen to know if the dividends coming from ETFS are taxed at ordinary rates or qualified? Thank you [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Looking for Vanguard alternative (poor security options) Posted: 05 May 2020 06:13 PM PDT I've been a long time customer of Vanguard, and i've been trying to find an alternative. I don't feel the security at Vanguard is up to modern standards. They require/fall back to SMS for two factor authentication, which isn't really secure at all. And almost worse, to do a Wire i need to call them (inconvenient) and their only security is an SMS to my account. No password needed even, pretty insane. Was already turning a blind eye to SMS for too long, and then once i realized how poor the security was for wiring large amounts of money, i was pretty rattled. I looked at some others like Fidelity and I don't really like their options. They require Symantec VIP for 2FA (much rather use traditional tokens like Authy). Saw reports of various companies that use Symantec VIP that just allow you to call to reset your account in case you lost the device the Symantec VIP app is on. Are there any more modern companies that handle this stuff better? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 05 May 2020 04:54 PM PDT Is there any free portfolio tracking app for iOS, that's available in Europe and doesn't look like it was designed in the 90s? Ideally I'm looking for a free app that allows me to:
Those that I've found so far are either not free, not available in the App Store in Europe, filled with ads (to the point where it disturbs usability) or look like they've been designed some decades ago (large dated fonts, no dashboard, etc):
As far as I could tell from installing over 10 apps on my phone, Stock Market simulation games have better functionality and interfaces then all of those from this list that are available on the store. Does anyone know a free alternative that meets the criteria? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
[AAL] American Airlines' risk of bankruptcy. Posted: 05 May 2020 10:25 AM PDT So I bought a handful of AAL stocks in this recent low because it's pretty close to all time low. Also it's less than fifth of the price of all time high. All relevant news headlines are negative which I assume is making this stock tank even more making this a potentially really profitable investment in the long term when things ease down. Obviously the risk is bankruptcy. Compared to Southwest or Delta their fundamentals are pretty shit. High debt burden, low profit margins. They're burning over 50 million in cash a day. They got the biggest loan and a grant from the government in the recent aid. And they're the biggest airline with over 100k employees (also with America in their name lol) which makes me think the fed will help them if shits hits the fan and they become really close to bankruptcy. I know they declared bankruptcy before but I believe this time government intervention is more likely due to the damage being caused by the corona. I've also been considering selling my current stakes in them and just buying Southwest or Delta which seem to have much better financials and fundamentals to survive this crisis, but potentially less % gains post recovery. What do you guys think? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 05 May 2020 06:33 PM PDT anyone know if there's a way to get FinViz to create maps like their canned ones for portfolios? or does the premium version do that? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||

Posted: 05 May 2020 06:24 PM PDT Does anyone have a recommendation for a cloud computing firm that most people don't know about? Don't care too much for the top 250 in the S&P. What are some firms that fly under the radar? I bought NOW on Reddit recommendation for $275. What are some others? I'm looking for a higher risk investment (again, avoid the obvious like AMZN, MSFT, etc) [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 06 May 2020 04:29 AM PDT Hi, I have some money $ to invest (26 k) but I am wondering if these are good times to invest ... I know 26k is not that much but it's a lot for me and I would hate to risk it in case something unprecedented happens in the future regarding the pandemic/economy Times are so uncertain.. I've been reading that there will be a new low coming but later so I don't want to miss this one but at the same time if that is not true, I don't want to miss out on cheaper prices.. I want to buy at the very bottom.. is it going to be impossible this time to time the market ? What are your views? The money is just sitting in the TFSA and I'm just waiting!! Thank you to all!

Buying an ETF that uses options to protect against downside risk: $NUSI Posted: 05 May 2020 03:55 PM PDT I'm currently planning to enter the market and I'm concerned about volatility, since I would like access to the funds on a 7-10 year horizon. I came across an interesting ETF that uses an option collar strategy to protect against downside risk That is, it sells calls against the underlying securities and then uses the revenue to buy protective puts. It's called NUSI, or Nationwide Risk-Managed Income ETF. It's appealing to me for a few reasons:
My goals would be to avoid inflation risk and have reasonable returns without a large drawdown. I had two questions:
