    EDIT: comments are now locked as spammers are starting to use them for spam links. Any additional questions, please submit a pull request on GitHub!

    EDIT2 5/9/2020: Updated with some more stuff - thanks for the suggestions! Added most of the stuff in the comments here and a few extras I forgot about

    EDIT3 5/25/2020: Updated with more links including TipRanks, EquitiesLab, TrendSpider, a couple more YouTube channels and Twitter accounts and a bunch more books!

    Hey everyone! Over the years I've collected tons and tons of market resources ranging from blogs to APIs to technical and fundamental analysis tools to books, videos, YouTube channels and beyond. For a while I've been working on organizing them into something we could share here on the sub to help answer all the "what are some good resources for learning about the stock market?" and "how do I get started in stocks?" type questions that always pop up across all these stock market subs.

    This is by no means complete, but it's already quite thorough and I'd love your help in adding to it.

    I've put it all on GitHub so it can be maintained and others can suggest additions and report broken links if/when they pop up, or make suggestions about order/organization or whatever! I will continue to add to it as I get around to it and come across new resources and rediscover old ones.

    In the mean time, please comment here or feel free to issue a pull request if you know how, if there's anything I should add and I will add it in, or if you notice any broken links or issues! I know that I've missed many things so let me know what they are and we'll make this even bigger/better. In particular it'd be nice if we could categorize the books and create lists for different categories kinda like /r/securityanalysis did in their wiki, but I've added a few as a start.

    Ok that's all! Open discussion, feedback welcome. Let's hear what you got.

    BEHOLD! THE ULTIMATE STOCK MARKET TOOLKIT

    Doctors face pay cuts, furloughs and supply shortages as coronavirus pushes primary care to the brink

    Posted: 25 May 2020 01:34 PM PDT

    https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/25/coronavirus-family-doctors-face-pay-cuts-furloughs-and-supply-shortages.html

    In 2016, primary-care physicians fielded 54% of all patient visits to doctors' offices.

    Primary care receives less than 7% of total U.S. health-care expenditures.

    The coronavirus pandemic is now threatening to push already tight budgets into the red.

    The Case About Tech Stocks

    Posted: 25 May 2020 05:28 AM PDT

    TL;DR: I believe there is a possibility of tech stocks being battered by the crisis that is not being taken into account by the markets.

    I've been following the market more closely since the coronavirus crisis began. Like some people here, the current bull market / bear market rally has been puzzling me because of the state of the economy and of how long this is going to last. It has been said time and again that the market is not the economy, and that is true, as the market is, among other things, a gauge of investor sentiment. And the sentiment for tech stocks it's as high as it's been.

    At the time of writing, NASDAQ is up 4% for the year. From my understanding, this is due to the confidence in the biotech sector and, of course, tech stocks. Focusing on tech stocks in general, it looks like people are betting on huge gains on those. And I think there's a point in that tech will benefit from this in a way. But I'm bearish about it, and here's why:

    • Ad revenue: some of the biggest players heavily rely on ad revenue for profiting. It's understood that many businesses will cut on advertising. Google has said that it will affect their bottom line, expect Facebook to follow suit
    • Consumer spending: because of the current situation, I expect smartphone sales to take a hit. For many companies (e.g. Apple) this is a main stream of revenue and, although I expect to see a consumption increase in laptop, tablet, and other accessories (e.g. webcams, headsets) I don't see the latter offsetting losses in the former
    • Mobility: decreased usage of mobility services (e.g. Uber, Lyft, car-sharing apps), if even because of less tourists and air traffic
    • Travel: even if travel goes back up a bit, it won't go back to 2019 levels (e.g. Airbnb, Booking)
    • Work-From-Home: here I do believe that tech companies will come out on top, but I'm cautious about it because many companies had already purchased the tools for this (therefore not resulting in a significantly larger pool of customers)
    • Earnings: a lot of companies removed guidance for the current quarter, which makes it a lot harder to know what to expect (not really bearish, but a factor to keep in mind)
    • Retail investors: there has been a surge of retail investors entering the market after the crash. These people are likely to bet in "hot" stocks, not the least tech stocks (and biotech and pharmaceuticals). This has undoubtedly been one of the major factors driving the market upwards in my opinion, and might be a red flag if or when the market gets dire
    • Stimulus: this is what I'm most unsure about. From what I read, the FED has a huge bond-purchasing programme. With this, the FED wants to keep confidence in the markets. My question is, because of the huge debt that the FED already has, and to how large the bond market is ($80 trillion) in comparison with the FED programmes, how much difference will it make?

    I'd like to hear your thoughts about this.

    How Do You Manage Risk. Stop Loss, Options, Diversify your Portfolio.

    Posted: 25 May 2020 07:48 PM PDT

    I just wanted to get an idea of what you guys and gals do for risk management.

    Are there some of you who don't do any type of risk management and just keep track of your investments and get out when you already lost an amount your willing to lose?

    Throughout my trading education I have always been taught to use a stop loss like it is my life line in trading.

    Do you all think a stop loss is as important as other think, is it extremely vital? Does using a stop loss put you ahead of the average trader?

    What other ways are there to minimize risk?

    Have I missed anything about Chipotle (NYSE: CMG)?

    Posted: 25 May 2020 11:40 AM PDT

    As some others in the sub I've been puzzled by the scale of the bear market rally we have seen so far. I have a simple tool to scan overbought/oversold stocks using indicators like RSI, MACD and checking metrics like P/E ratio, EPS, etc.

    Chipotle (CMG) is currently trading at ATHs having more than doubled since the bottom in March. Their P/E ratio is 88.4. I like to compare companies to their peers and when looking at MCD, YUM, SBUX, DPZ, QSR I see that none of them are trading at ATHs and their P/E ratio ranges from 23 to 35. What have Chipotle done differently for the market to value them at such high multiples compared to their competitors?

    Thought on Sea Limited (SE)?

    Posted: 25 May 2020 06:50 PM PDT

    There doesn't seem to be a lot of buzz around this one. Corona didn't hit it all that hard and it has gone right back on its way up. I bough in mid April at 44 and it is now at 79.

    They have a good foothold in an emerging market. To me it looks like a stock that could hit 100+ by this time next year. Am I missing something because the general population doesn't seem to be as hyped as I am for them.

    The Myth of Central Bank Independence & Germany’s Constitutional Court Ruling | Adam Tooze

    Posted: 25 May 2020 10:27 AM PDT

    Listen to the full episode

    Demetri Kofinas speaks with Adam Tooze, professor of history and Director of the European Institute at Columbia University about the German Constitutional Court's recent ruling. In its decision, the German Court finds that the European Central Bank's 2015 bond-buying program would be illegal under German law unless the ECB can prove the purchases are justified. The ruling threatens to undermine the very credibility of Central Bank independence, which has always been predicated on a political consensus about what the proper role of monetary policy is, how it should operate, and what its objectives should be.

    This consensus no longer holds, not only in Europe but across much of the developed world. Left unresolved, the contradictions between the mandates of central banks and their policy actions will only worsen the type of political dysfunction that threatens the very independence that they seek to protect.

    5/25/2020: Weekly Wrap-up & What to Expect

    Posted: 25 May 2020 08:03 AM PDT

    Stock prices were propelled upward last week due to two key announcements. Last Sunday, Jerome Powell said the central bank still has plenty of ammunition to help the markets and economy. Then, Moderna (NASDAQ: MRNA) announced positive data on their COVID vaccine on Monday morning. This combination of news drove the S&P 500 increase by 3.2% over the course of the week. With all this good news, can we expect more? Here are the details:

    1. On Sunday, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell announced that the Fed is not out of ammunition 'by a long shot', driving premarket trading. Last Sunday, on "60 Minutes," Jerome Powell told the interviewer that "we're not out of ammunition by a long shot," referring to a large sum of unused funds that have been allotted to fight COVID. Simply put, Powell plans on continuously infusing money into the economy to attempt to save small business from closing and permanently reducing the number of jobs available. Index futures traded significantly higher the same night.
    2. The next morning, Moderna released positive interim P1 data for their COVID vaccine, pushing stocks further upwards. The morning after, Moderna announced positive data on their COVID vaccine. The biotech company demonstrated generation of anti-COVID antibodies in patients without significant side effects. The company plans on starting their pivotal P3 clinical trial in July, which, if successful, will lead to a much faster economic recovery with everyone's concerns of infection put at ease.
    3. On Thursday, over 2M Americans filed unemployment claims, but investors remain optimistic over economic reopening. As usual, the announcement of an additional 2.4M Americans filing for unemployment claims did not shake the market. Through our small sample size of consumer research, we have found that many are not working because of high unemployment benefits during COVID. Restaurants are worried about reopening because there may not be enough supply of workers to hire from in order to reopen their shops successfully. While more continue to file for unemployment claims, investors are confident that many will be able to sustain on government support and will reengage with the economy as it reopens.
    4. To date, all but three states have either reopened to a degree or plan on reopening soon. The final three states that have yet to open and do not have set plans to open are Illinois, Delaware, and New Jersey. As the weather gets better, more people are out and about waiting for takeout at their favorite local restaurants and eating the food in grassy public areas. So far, the U.S. government has not identified any spikes in COVID cases in states that have reopened.
    5. With states reopening and the weather improving, airport travel jumps to a two-month high, indicating economic activity. With summer around the corner and COVID concern dying down, travelers are getting back into the air. This Friday, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) recorded a two-month high in airport travelers. While this number is still down 88% from a year ago, increase in air travel demonstrates confidence in ability to combat COVID.

    With the Feds' confidence in the economy and Moderna's exciting vaccine announcement, where does that leave the markets? WX Capital was confident that positive news would outweigh negative news in May, but now that positive news is relatively commonplace, we believe the market may recover at a much slower pace. We expect a successful economic reopening with limited spikes in COVID cases and believe that vaccine development for COVID is more of a matter of when rather than if. We also believe that biotech will likely be the industry with the greatest return potential in the near future.

    Canopy growth is on a run into earnings Friday morning

    Posted: 25 May 2020 10:45 AM PDT

    Canopy (TSX:Weed) is up another 8% today. Who is buying this into earnings Friday morning?

    Catalysts seem to be - higher pot consumption during lockdown, Aurora's 200% move after reporting earnings, potential for US legalization.

    I would never buy aurora into earnings (even though I wish I did) but I bought a big position in Canopy last week. Looking for a similar double digit move.

    Is there a similar site to ETF.com for the UK market?

    Posted: 25 May 2020 09:55 AM PDT

    I've only just fell upon www.etf.com and think the site is superb but many ETF'S listed aren't available in the UK. Is there a similar site in the UK which will allow the search of a company and the results page will show which ETF's have the company listed and also what percentage/allocation is staked? Thanks

    What is the best type of order for selling on earnings?

    Posted: 25 May 2020 04:49 PM PDT

    What type of order would I place to sell a stock after a pre-market earnings beat? For example, a stock beats on earnings and opens 4% higher, but quickly finds equilibrium at only +2%. How do I capture the highest % gain during a high volatility trading period?

    Tech Bubble 2.0

    Posted: 25 May 2020 12:39 PM PDT

    We're having another tech bubble, just like the first tech bubble and just like the BTC bubble, only this time the bubble revolves around AI and new tech innovations which are definitely going to contribute increased efficiency to the world, but most of the companies are entirely unprofitable and don't have a clear path to profitability. Pick off the most reasonable ones now, wait for the crash, then buy the best ones. Accept the fact that you might miss out but there will likely be another opportunity to get in at a later date.

    Experienced investors/traders, what are some stocks that you believe have lots of upside potential?

    Posted: 25 May 2020 09:16 AM PDT

    I want to get into trading options, but I don't want to buy an option that an experienced investor would turn down for a reason I'm unaware of. Anyone know of any stocks that have upside potential? or are undervalued?

    If you can't predict the future, why bother?

    Posted: 25 May 2020 11:44 AM PDT

    Instead of trying to guess with certainty what the future holds why not position yourself in such a way that you don't get obliterated either way? Mix gold/silver/btc into a portfolio of stocks to act as a form of insurance against being wrong. Buy a range of stocks that aren't all vulnerable to another crash. Diversify.

    If this post doesn't relate to you because you already know this don't feel condescended, just say nothing :)

    Best USA or Cdn publically traded company to benefit from hearing aids?

    Posted: 24 May 2020 10:30 PM PDT

    Just noticed that with all these masks, there are going to be lots of people who realize they've been depending on lip reading and in fact, their hearing is bad. Also the population is getting older too so I think companies that specialize in hearing aids will benefit. However, I saw that the big ones are in Swiss. Any companies/tickers that you guys think will benefit from this?

    Question for Bond people

    Posted: 24 May 2020 10:28 PM PDT

    Given that Fed interest rates are at historic lows. And given the fact that the Fed chair has said that they aren't likely to go to negative interest rates not only because it'd be bad for banks, but also because they don't feel like it's effective. Wouldn't investing in TMV be a good idea? The Fed is likely to start raising interest rates in 6 months or so if the recovery continues right?
