Billionaire Ackman defends capitalism, but warns inequality poses a 'black-swan type' risk Posted: 29 Aug 2020 05:34 AM PDT Specifically, the 54-year-old activist investor suggested that the government create investment accounts for every baby born in the U.S. that would invest in no-fee stock index funds, and withdrawal from those funds wouldn't be allowed until retirement. According to Ackman, assuming a rate of 8% per year, investing $6,750 in an account at birth would yield assets of more than $1 million by age 65. It would cost the government $26 billion per year, based on the average number of children born in the U.S. In addition, the billionaire suggested that companies should be required to put a fixed percentage of a worker's salary or wages in a tax-free investment account that couldn't be touched until retirement. In that way, it would mimic Australia's successful superannuation system. Thanks for the awards. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Are ETFs the way to go? I feel like its too easy. Posted: 29 Aug 2020 06:29 PM PDT Im not looking to get rich quick (although that would be fantastic). Ive came across ETFs and figured i would just dump all my money into them every month. Specifically SPY. If the markets continue to grow and businesses do well, wouldn't i be fairly wealthy in like 30 years? It seems unreal and i wonder why doing this isnt part of our culture. I feel like we should share our successes and failures in the stock market with our kids. Teach em young type shit. Half the people my age dont even understand the stock market. My mom even doesnt. Anyways, are ETFs the move? I might invest in some companies i trust, like apple, amazon, alibaba, and a few others, but i would like to have ETFs as my main money grower. Is this the way to go? I'll be investing at least $200 a month until i can get a better job or more hours. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||

Is having 40% of your portfolio invested in one stock a bad idea? Posted: 29 Aug 2020 11:38 AM PDT I currently have around 1900 invested in a bunch of different companies and feel good about my diversification. Right now Apple is about 13% of my portfolio. However, I want to invest a significant amount in them on Monday (was thinking 8.75 shares on top of my existing 1.25 after the split). This would leave me with 40% of a 3,000 dollar investment being in Apple. Is this too much invested in one stock? I am confident that Apple will provide a great return in the long run but am hesitant to put almost half of my money in a single stock. What do you guys think? What's the general consensus on the most you should put into one stock? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Selling or holding before election? Posted: 29 Aug 2020 01:10 PM PDT 32 f. I've heard various thoughts on whether the market will fall or not following the election. Deciding whether I want to hold and ride whatever out. Or sell and buy at lower prices. I'm also not wanting to be taxed by selling if I don't have to. What is your personal opinion?

Pulling single day stock info for multiple companies at once Posted: 29 Aug 2020 10:49 AM PDT I'm aware that you are able to pull multiple day information for 1 company through websites such as yahoo finance. But where are you able to pull 1 day stock information for multiple companies at once? My current method is pulling each stock one by one, and that is extremely time consuming.

Where to find Minutely updated historical data. Posted: 29 Aug 2020 07:57 AM PDT Where can I go to find minutely updated historical data on price, volume etc. Of a certain stock over the past month/longer timeframe as most websites only give minutely data for the past few days and I need a loooot of data over the past few months. Cheers [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 29 Aug 2020 02:46 PM PDT Assuming a worst case scenario that the market crashes in the next few months, how fast would this process be? I read a MarketWatch article that said it would be a slow process taking years like the Dot-com bubble, but I'm skeptical. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Liquid Nitrogen Stocks the next big thing? Posted: 29 Aug 2020 12:44 PM PDT It appears that a lot of the major US made vaccines will have storage and distribution issues (requiring up to -94F storage temp.). I am also seeing $CYRX just popped 40%+ this past week. Is it too late to buy in or is there still time? Do you guys think liquid nitrogen will be a big deal if these vaccines keep getting produced ?

Posted: 29 Aug 2020 08:09 AM PDT What is HVPE? HVPE (LON: HVPE) is a publicly-traded investment fund that invests in HarbourVest's private equity funds. It is pretty much a private equity ETF. HVPE is an access point to 3 types of private funds, as it invests in primaries (46%), secondaries (34%), and co-investments (20%). The funds include private companies from early ventures to large buyouts. HVPE makes a profit when its underlying funds return money to investors, which it then reallocates into more funds for NAV appreciation. Investment thesis: HVPE has returned >330% since listing in 2010, outperforming the public markets. It usually delivers consistent gains, mirroring private equity returns. Since the Covid pandemic however, it is still down 12%. Even more interesting, is that it is now trading at a discount to NAV of 25%, when traditionally it trades at a discount to NAV of 10%. Private equity deals typically involve acyclical, cash-generative businesses, so although HarbourVest's funds won't be immune to a downturn, it does not warrant a 15pp extra NAV discount. Moreover, it is trading at a P/E ratio of just over 6. I believe that within the next 6 months (especially with earnings in December), HVPE can be trading at least at its highs in February, which is a 14% upside. At the worst, HVPE is still a solid long-term PE play, which can diversify your portfolio well – PE can reduce the beta of your portfolio considerably. Drawbacks: - Fairly illiquid investment, which can be hard to buy in large chunks. - Earnings can be sporadic, as private equity funds have long lifecycles with no restrictions on when they return capital Disclaimer: I do own shares in HVPE.

Kaleyra Inc flop or future star? Posted: 29 Aug 2020 10:39 AM PDT Hi im new to the stock business and wanted to ask if Kaleyra Inc got some potential? I personally think they got what it needs to get big, but im new so I wanna hear some different opinions and approaches :) [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 29 Aug 2020 10:04 AM PDT Woke up this morning to see my stock portfolio increase 80% over night. Says my "securities held in cash" apparently account for the jump- a 4 figure sum. Not sure tesla or apple are the cause for it. Perhaps I should call my broker representative to see if its real. Anyone else have this happen before? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Just came into $140,000 and looking to invest wisely Posted: 28 Aug 2020 09:13 PM PDT Both of my parents are horrible with money and my current financial position is only what I've gleaned over the years and maybe some luck. Five years ago I was able to purchase a home with a special program for low income buyers. It wasn't a mansion, but with the huge bump in selling prices with the pandemic, I was able to sell it for just about double what I paid for it. After the sale, I have $140k liquid. I'll probably keep $30k in savings and I'm not sure how to invest the rest. I don't even make a quarter of that annually, so I'm not a wealthy person and if it were any other year than 2020 I'd just put it in some kind of index fund, but I don't know what to do. Any advise about what makes sense to do would be appreciated! [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
ETF question: S&P ex FAANG and the usual suspects. Posted: 29 Aug 2020 09:32 AM PDT Is anyone familiar with a recovery oriented ETF that tracks that S&P but excludes big/over-inflated names? The closest I can find is SPXT (S&P Ex Tech) but upon further review, their top holdings are Amazon/Google/Facebook. Any input would be awesome. Basically looking to diversity away from these excellent companies with quite high PE's due to the rush-to-tech/comm. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
26 yr Old Portfolio Feedback Please Posted: 29 Aug 2020 03:11 AM PDT I've wanted to get into stock since I was in my early 20s (2015ish), but I've only started recently (mid-June). Some background is I'm in my mid-20s, no job currently (preparing for Ph.D. in the US, but would be an international student). I currently have around 40k. I am holding on to around 5,000 in my bank account for everyday use. 10k is in my account I use for investments, waiting for more opportune times to invest. I currently invested around 25k. I am thinking about trading around a few (I have some SLV that I am going to sell to buy GOOGL/FB) but the chart below will be the approximate I am planning to have soon. Between GOOGL and FB I am leaning towards GOOGL. Any feedback or advice would be helpful!
EDIT: I am thinking of long term investments rather than trading short term [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Am I dumb for holding cash and averaging in? Posted: 29 Aug 2020 08:36 AM PDT Hey all, Pretty much the title. Just looking for some outside opinion/criticism if that's alright. I have ~$50k in cash (~30% of portfolio and shrinking a little every day), mostly due to a recent insurance payout earlier in the year. The money won't be needed for anything else. Logically thinking, back in April/May I figured I would average in monthly through December. "Best" case, markets go down significantly and I average down successfully. "Worst" case, markets climb (I assumed slowly) and I average up by not much, and in the long run it won't be that big of a deal. At the same time, I'm wondering if my cash position is too big. It sounds like everyone has their own approach on this during these times. As time goes on, it seems like the market is handling covid stuff super well and March was the worst, but obviously not guaranteed. Would love some outside perspective to know if I'm doing something crazy or if what I'm doing makes sense, or something in between. I would hate to experience the opportunity cost of holding too much cash because I tried to be "smart". Also super interested in how other people are handling their own situations if willing to share. Thanks in advance! [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||

Need to know stock market trends for interview Posted: 29 Aug 2020 07:17 AM PDT I have an upcoming equity research interview and wanted to see if anyone could provide me with some trends in the market over the past 6 months that I should be informed about. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 28 Aug 2020 09:26 PM PDT As I go deeper into investing, as in put more money in, I have put some stop on quote order behind my investments in etrade. However Im not entirely sure what the best process and price for these would be. Mainly I put them in order to protect myself from some unforeseen huge crash. Im not on my account 24/7 so its there to protect me I guess. However I made somewhat of a clumsy mistake when I bought into NVDA recently. I purchased the stock at around 480, and then few days later I added a stop quote around 475. Well the stock then suddenly dropped to 475 and then almost immediately rocketed to 500. So I ended up losing money and could not re-enter the stock since it went up so much. Rookie mistake? Curious to hear who you use this feature and how you pick yours price point?

Someone help me understand please Posted: 29 Aug 2020 05:16 AM PDT What happens to a stock when it goes from being on the TSX to the NASDAQ? Say you own some shares of company x before it moved to the NASDAQ, What's the process it goes through? And what could I expect from the change? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||
Market predictions if Trump victory or Biden victory. Posted: 29 Aug 2020 10:47 AM PDT What do you reckon will be the outcome scenario if each of these two things happen? Trump brings market confidence and his far right political stance means that he believes in lowering tax rates and deregulation for businesses. As an investor who has a stake in stocks, this is good for your investments. This is even more favourable for the rich because they are more incentivised to work harder and innovate. Biden-Harris' lean more towards socialist policies which are aggressive on banks and corporations and their policies aim to make society more fair for the lower class. From what I observed, this doesn't sit well with wall street, people who own stocks and investors alike. As seen with Sanders, the market rallied when he announced that he was dropping out of the presidential election. So what actions are you planning to take in anticipation of a Trump or Biden victory?

21 yr old uni student thinking about short-long term stocks Posted: 28 Aug 2020 09:36 PM PDT My friend suggested today that I think about investing in stocks, as she was as well but I have no idea how or where to start. I've been reading over some of the subreddit and a lot of the terms really confuse me. I want to invest in short or long term stocks, not really interested in day trading or swing trading. I live in Canada, if that makes any difference, an she suggested I start with some biotech company shares because of COVID19. The questions I have are:
I'm just new to the stock market and very lost. I just want to start out with something simple that I could invest in like few months to a few years. [link] [comments] |
