    Have a general question? Want to offer some commentary on markets? Maybe you would just like to throw out a neat fact that doesn't warrant a self post? Feel free to post here!

    If your question is "I have $10,000, what do I do?" or other "advice for my personal situation" questions, you should include relevant information, such as the following:

    • How old are you? What country do you live in?
    • Are you employed/making income? How much?
    • What are your objectives with this money? (Buy a house? Retirement savings?)
    • What is your time horizon? Do you need this money next month? Next 20yrs?
    • What is your risk tolerance? (Do you mind risking it at blackjack or do you need to know its 100% safe?)
    • What are you current holdings? (Do you already have exposure to specific funds and sectors? Any other assets?)
    • Any big debts (include interest rate) or expenses?
    • And any other relevant financial information will be useful to give you a proper answer.

    Moving 401k selections to bonds?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2022 07:42 AM PST

    I don't know much about anything, but really going with my gut thinking the market is going to tank considering the current status of the economy (i.e., inflation, the constant printing of money, etc.). To shield my investments, would it be a good move to switch my elections in my 401k to bonds? I understand that bonds are fairly resistant to volatility, don't want my gains over the past few years to be wiped away though in the next few months... Just curious to everyone's thoughts on this type of move...

    Leveraged ETF intra-day pricing and out of market returns

    Posted: 21 Jan 2022 03:41 AM PST

    I'm considering an earnings play in a 3x stock etf and whilst aware of the general risks I am wondering about the pricing impact of how these 'daily reset' funds are structured.

    1. Will you get gains made out of market hours or are they lost within the time it takes to "reset"?

    2 . If I buy during the day does the purchase price generally reflect fair value? Eg if stock is up 2% intra day and fund is 3x will the unit price be roughly 3x or is intra- day pricing not reliable?

    How do people borrow using a personal brokerage account as collateral?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2022 08:19 AM PST

    I heard about this the other day and it had never occurred to me, it would have to be a low enough interest rate that it would make sense.

    I think what I'm trying to figure out is, Is this the same as just applying for a business or personal loan from a bank but you're just additionally providing this account to the bank?

    Or is there another way (rich) people do it, where you borrow against future projected interest or something and there's no interest involved or it's super low I'm curious to learn more about what the options are there if any. thanks!

    Can somebody explain what is going on with the stockmarket?

    Posted: 21 Jan 2022 07:02 AM PST

    It seems that the rate of the global stockmarkets are in decline. Since December last year one of the most influential markts: Nasdaq, S&P 500, Dow Jones, Euronext, Shanghai stock exchange are all down by 3% or more. With the trend continuing to be going downwards. I have done some limited research on why the stockmarket is currently declining, but I don't think these findings have anything profound to conclude on why there is a global downwards trend.

    As for the question: I would like to know what your opinions are on why the stockmarket is declining. Is this a small correction or something entirely else. As for beginners like me, what are some SWOT(Strength, weaknesses, Oppertunities and threats) of the current state of the stockmarket?

    How can Investors Grasp the Opportunities in the EV Industry in 2022?

    Posted: 20 Jan 2022 11:44 PM PST

    In recent years, the speed of Chinese electrification transition has almost beat the other countries around the world. From January to November 2021, the world share of China's new energy passenger vehicles reached 52%, of which it reached 60% in November.

    In addition, the penetration rate of new energy vehicles in China is also rising rapidly. In terms of last December's data, the Chinese retail penetration of new energy vehicles was 22.6% and the annual penetration rate was 14.8%, a significant increase from 5.8% in 2020.

    Looking back at 2021

    In 2021, the trend of new energy sector in A-shares started from the new energy vehicles at the end of March, and photovoltaic concept stocks outbreak at the end of April, and wind energy concept stocks were strong at the end of July; at the end of October, other new energy sub-segments were all not weak. Each sub-segment in EV industry topped and fluctuated at a high price.

    However, near the end of the year, the popular new energy sector was constantly falling back, even the leading stock CATL plunged.

    As of December 29, within a month, the share price of CATL had a cumulative drop of 12.53% and a maximum drop of 7.28% in a single day. CATL is the number one weighted stock of GEM, and also the leading lithium enterprise. Led by it, GEM once plunged, lithium, new energy vehicles and other sectors had also suffered.

    In 2021, in the U.S. stock market, NIO fell 35%, XPeng rose 17.5% and Li Auto rose 11.3%. Although both XPeng and Li Auto's share prices were up to no more than 20%, their market value was up nearly 30%, better than most Chinese stocks.

    Outlook for 2022

    Since this year, with the shocks in the market and the changing focus on different sectors, individual stocks generally retrace. However, investment institutions believe that in the medium and long term, guided by the background of the "Peak Carbon Dioxide Emissions and Carbon Neutrality" target, the market for EV has not yet ended.

    Essence Securities expects the new energy vehicle industry to be fully positive in 2022. The bank said that the scale expansion of new energy vehicles and technological advances have brought about continued improvement in cost reduction; at the same time, with the implementation of the decreased subsidy and rising raw material prices, the prices of some models have seen an upward adjustment, but still does not reduce consumer demand. New energy vehicle production and sales are expected to continue to grow in 2022.

    Cinda Securities pointed out that under the global carbon-neutral consensus, the new energy vehicle track has long-term certainty. In recent years, the Chinese new energy vehicle market has entered the consumer-driven and sales repeatedly exceed expectations, continuing to boom.

    Which stocks are worthy of attention?

    CITIC Securities said that 2022 is expected to become the first year of rapid development of the battery swap industry with the improvement of policies, capital, and its own product strength. And it is expected that the industry will add more than 3,000 new battery swap stations. In 2025, there might be more than 10,000 stations, which expand 10 times in five years.

    In the short term, the relevant operators and equipment suppliers are expected to benefit from the high growth of the industry; in the long term, the bank recommended the third-party battery suppliers and operators with strong resource integration capabilities, such as CATL, GCL Energy Technology, etc.

    Northeast securities issued a research report said that after benefiting from the downward price of raw materials and smooth price increases, earnings are expected to be fully recovered. For lithium-related companies, it recommended CATL and suggested to pay attention to Farasis Energy.
