    Investment research group in the stock market

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 06:30 PM PDT

    Hi,

    I'm doing a Ph.D. in data analysis and been reading about investing in the Canadian stock market for 1 year (part-time). I have become super interested in finding the patterns and, of course, making money there! As I believe that it is computers that will outperform human traders in the future, my aim is to write Python codes and use machine learning models to handle this task. However, as well as coding and programming, I have to learn different strategies of investment that are likely to be profitable. To speed up the process, I am thinking of creating an investment group where we can do research together. Please let me know if anyone is interested or have any advice!

    Thank you guys and cheers!

    $WISH Bullish trend continues!

    Hello fellow apes, I am sharing my thoughts on WISH, this is not financial advise!

    Looking at the 1 hour chart we see wish holding the line, currently price is above fibonnaci retracement lane 38.2% at price level 13.73, this line is now acting as support.

    Also we have price above ema 50, the price did not broke below ema 50 which is good news indicating buyers are still there as well momentum is there as of 6/25.

    Volume is still trading at 3x the avg. volume which still indicates a lot of interest on the stock.

    Take in consideration this is one of the only stocks that has not broken ema100 since the initial pump and still now continuing the uptrend .

    Overall I still like the stock a lot of social media apes are still in this stock so BUY and HODL!

    Price target midweek is 15.5 possible hitting 17.5 by Friday.

    A sharp downturn won't scare away the horde of retail investors reshaping the market. We spoke to 5 experts and day traders who explained why they're here to stay

    A sharp downturn won't scare away the horde of retail investors reshaping the market. We spoke to 5 experts and day traders who explained why they're here to stay. | Markets Insider (businessinsider.com)

    Natasha Dailey Jun. 27, 2021, 08:15 AM

    • The surge of retail investors will likely be in the stock market for the long haul, experts told Insider.
    • Fee-free trading, access to market data, and social media, are making it easier to trade.
    • "They see it as more than just a trade or an investment. They see it as a movement," one expert said.

    Since January 2020, retail investors bought $400 billion in stocks, doubling their total equity purchases from years prior, according to Vanda Research. Stock buying had been on the upswing for years before that though as more everyday investors had better access to market data and fee-free trading, thanks to brokerage apps like Robinhood, among others.

    Dave Lauer, a stock market structure expert who has been interacting with retail investors, said the COVID-19 pandemic simply accelerated the number of day traders joining the market. But now that they're here, "they're here to stay," he said.

    For the first time, he's seeing hundreds of thousands of people wanting to learn about how markets work and improve them.

    "They see it as more than just a trade or an investment," he said. "They see it as a movement."

    Matt Kohrs, a 26-year-old day trader with more than 300,000 followers on his YouTube trading channel, said the community of retail investors came together because they're "tired of the tilted game" of Wall Street.

    "The driving factor is a huge social-cultural movement," he said. "It just happens to be playing out on a stock chart."

    Retail traders have joined the stock market in droves before.

    Kristina Hooper, chief global market strategist at Invesco, said the dot-com bubble in the 90s had an "extraordinary level" of retail participation.

    During that time, "it was not Reddit and Wall Street Bets and forums; it was taxi drivers in New York City talking about their favorite dot-com picks," said Darren Schuringa, the founder of ASYMmetric ETFs, a firm designed to empower retail investors.

    The difference now, according to Tuttle Capital Management Chief Executive Officer Matt Tuttle, "is the access now to all sorts of information, it's the ability to trade for free and to trade quickly, and it's the fact that they're connected."

    That connection, Tuttle said, has given them the buying power of institutional investors.

    For example, in January, hordes of day traders mobilizing on Reddit drove shares of GameStop to sky-high prices and caused short-sellers to lose billions. The event started the trend of "meme stocks," and since then, the traders have driven share prices of multiple other companies, like AMC Entertainment and BlackBerry, up as well.

    "They've got some power," Tuttle said. "What history tells you is people who have power don't give it up, at least not willingly."

    Even a market correction isn't likely to faze retail traders, though they'll likely face losses and some will exit, the experts said.

    Hooper said a market correction could be on the horizon, though it will be short lived and won't dent retail appetite.

    "If you only have a downturn that lasts a few days and then stocks start going back up, will it shake out a lot of retail investors? Probably not," she said.

    However, a correction could hit meme stocks "quite hard," she said, "because if there is one area where the fundamentals aren't backing it, it's meme stocks."

    Lauer, on the other hand, said meme stocks might avoid a correction because they appear to trade "relatively independent of what the market is doing."

    Kohrs said because retail traders make money off volatility, they could have even "bigger gains" in a bear market if executed properly.

    "If you have proper risk management," Schuringa said, "you can make money on both sides of the trade."

    July 2021 Stock Power Rankings

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 04:15 PM PDT

    I posted this in r/investing and people seemed to enjoy it so I figured I'd share it here as well:

    I did a lot of research this weekend trying to put together a good list for the best stocks to buy in July. Feedback and ideas are appreciated! Obviously we're all not gonna have the same opinions but I think this list is a good guide. Let me know what ya think. I'm of the opinion that the market is going to rotate towards beaten down growth stocks but not the ones that are extremely high flyers. For example, some stocks that made the list are those such as AMD, SoFi, and Disney. I think the most controversial part of where I think the market is headed is in regards to Chinese companies.

    I am of the opinion that companies like JD.com, Alibaba and even though it didn't make my list, Baidu will see significant recoveries in the coming months. Although, I won't rule out the idea of them being value traps entirely and I could understand investor fears relating to them as their is so much uncertainty.

    Thanks for hearing me out and for any ideas you may have.

    How Stocks are Valued Part 1: Discounted Cash Flow

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 08:17 AM PDT

    I saw a question yesterday about why stocks are valuable, so I thought I would do a write-up of what I learned about stocks in business school. But first, an important concept:

    The Time Value of Money, Present Value, and Discount Rate

    A loan to a friend

    Imagine if you loaned someone $1000 for a year. You probably want to be paid back with interest. This interest compensates you for losing access to that money for a year, during which you could have deposited it at a bank, invested it, or even spent it.

    The long story short is that $1000 today is worth more than $1000 tomorrow because of the flexibility and options that you have with today's money. We can say that the Present Value of $1000 next year is less than $1000 today. This concept is also known as The Time Value of Money.

    An Example With T-Bills

    Treasury bills (T-Bills) are essentially loans to the US Government, but the amount to be repaid is fixed. T-Bills are typically denominated in $1000s, which is the amount the government will repay when the bond matures.

    An investor can typically buy a T-Bill for less than the full $1000 on the open market. The investor makes money because she purchased the future $1000 payment at a discount. This discount exists because money today is worth more than money tomorrow. How do you convert between the two? Using the appropriately named Discount Rate, or the required rate of return.

    The average investor wants to make money from lending money, even to the US Government. If investors want a 1% return, then $100 today is the same as $101 next year.

    We can similarly price T-Bills: If the required rate of return is 1%, and the bond will pay $1000 in a year, then the Present Value of the T-Bill is about $990. This is because the $990 investment will grow by 1% into $1000.

    --------------------------------------------------------

    Are you still awake? Good. This is the fun part.

    So What Are Stocks Anyway?

    Stocks represent partial ownership of a company. A company is divided into units of stock called shares, and as a shareholder, you are entitled to a fraction of the company's assets (after all debts are repaid) and any future profits.

    So Why Does a Stock Have Value?

    Part of a stock's value comes from its book value (the value of all company assets minus all company debt) but this clearly only a small fraction of that price ( the average price-to-book ratio for the companies in the S&P500 is about 4.5). The remainder of the stock value comes from the future earnings of a company.

    Similar to how the price of a T-Bill is the present value of a future payment, a large part of a stock's value comes from the present value of future earnings. Analysts will project (and discount) a company's future earnings, add the book value, and arrive at an estimate of the stock's value.

    Oversimplified DCF Example:

    The Pear Company makes $100 a year risk-free. For simplicity's sake, it has $200 in assets and no debt. For some reason, you figure 100% is a good discount rate to use.

    The Pear Company will make $100 next year (Year 1), which is worth $50 today ($50 doubles into $100 in a year). In Year 2, The Pear Company's earnings are only worth $25 to you today, and so on. If you add the present value of all future cash flows together, you'll arrive at $100.

    You can find the company value by adding the value of its assets ($200) with the present value of its future earnings ($100). If Pear issues 100 shares, each will be worth $3.

    Of course, even simple DCF Models IRL look a little scarier than the above example.

    But What Makes The Stock Valuable To Me?

    You might have noticed that dividends aren't really taken into account at all. How are you supposed to get any real money from a company whose stock pays no dividends?

    Unpaid dividends don't just disappear. Management can decide to reinvest these profits to grow their income. This results in a larger stock price over time. The company might also just decide to keep the cash on its balance sheet. This results in a larger book value, and the stock price will increase to reflect that.

    You can sell some stock to create your own "dividend" if you'd like; you will own a smaller percentage of the company, but because profits were not distributed to shareholders, the company has gotten bigger.

    But What Makes The Stock Valuable To The Next Guy?

    Eventually, the company's value will be returned to shareholders. This could happen in several ways:

    1. Dividends are paid out in the future, returning capital to investors
    2. The company is acquired or goes private, and shareholders either receive cash or stock in the acquiring company. Typically, the acquisition price is determined by, among other things, the present value of all future earnings of the company,
    3. The company might also just decide to stop operating and liquidate its assets. Shareholders will receive all assets the company owns (after paying its debt).

    What to do with this money

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 10:02 PM PDT

    I'm most likely getting a large lump sum of money that can be anywhere from 25000 to 50000 or more and I want to invest it into a dividend yielding anything but I'm not entirely sure what the best course of action is. I'm a college student and have a full ride so I don't really need money right now my expenses are very low (been investing 80% of my paycheck into stock market and plan to keep doing that). So I want to basically get done college which will be 4-6 years from now and be able to live off of what I have in the stock market. So I'm thinking I should find a stock that has good growth like QQQ for example then once I graduate put it all into a stock like QYLD for monthly pay outs. But I'm also not very smart with this stuff so I'm asking for any advice on what would be the best way to make this plan work. As well as good stocks for this plan.

    Bullish on $BABA

    Posted: 27 Jun 2021 03:16 PM PDT

    I'm an owner of Alibaba and I think the current price presents a compelling entry. The stock is beaten down primarily because of China-US geopolitical concerns and China's clampdown on the power of its own entrepreneurs. These issues aren't going to deter a very dominant player in the e-commerce from having global success. Alibaba has successfully penetrated a variety of markets outside of China and I expect it to continue to have great traction.

    Don't forget that Charlie Munger and Ray Dalio are also fans of $BABA.

    Lastly, valuation is compelling. It is one of the more reasonably priced Chinese tech stocks on a Enterprise Value / Revenue basis relative to growth. Enterprise Value = the value of the company, including its debt. It's common to compare this multiple to a company's expected growth rate to get a sense for if the valuation makes sense.
