>I'm new to the stock market, what stocks should I buy?
Before you buy anything, make a brokerage account and read investopedia articles and/or the books in the OP list. If you don't have a broker, you can't buy stocks, and if you blindly buy things without understanding how the stock market works or doing any research on the individual stocks you're buying, you will lose money and it will be entirely your fault.

In this thread, we mostly discuss the Tootsie roll stock

TR has managed to keep up with the likes of KO and Nestle by keeping there dividends low. Is that a good thing? Is there growth potential? No.

It kind of looked like a double top but im 230% invested for now. Looking to unload down to 170%

Maybe in another 100 years we will have a recession

its not even remotely possible anytime soon

Not particularly worried. I have some signs I've been using for the past 10 years. Pulled my retirement funds to safety before the recession and the 2015-2016 sell off. If it changes then it changes. Just gotta go with the flow.

>average eps keeps increasing to new heights
>companies have much larger cash reserves now than 2015
haha yeah those megacorps will default any day now

I'm saving for a house, I have 5k in stocks/funds and around 8k in savings. Should I buy the dip or keep some savings so I can buy a house in the near future... I wanna invest but don't wanna sell too soon to buy a house once I could .

MONDAY WILL BE GREEN as fuck, unless you like bonds, those yields will be green as well.

you just missed a dip

wait for a real crash in the next couple years

honestly, you're timeframe, and honestly how good is reliiable credit, locking in a low interest mortgage isn't the stupidest thing, shit is getting out of contriol, personally investing in a house or piece of property in this envroionment is fundamentally bad because the rising intrerest rates will depreciate values in home equiities, and sons of fucking bitches are taking lones against pre-existing equity and selling houses to the banks, but thhe banks don't want to sell homes, and the boom of this bust is at hand now, no rates are going strait up. But some nigger user said Bonds are about to reverse! He looked at a chart and laughed. Some people aren't qualified to know the difference between put shinoal and get shit off my shoe.

to be honest... lock in your loan but watch home prices depreciate over the next 10 years, and in 20 youll be ok.

Some of my stocks still didn't went up.

Should I buy a home though when they probably will lower in price pretty near future.

I don’t know if over half of college graduates having student debt into their upper 30s/early 40s is a good thing.

How about this:

Buy apartment/house when the market is down but still be signed up for waiting lists for apartments so when the market is up, you move into a rental.

Repeat this indefinitely for every housing crash?

Houses are always a good investment if you are just sitting on mountains of cash/have good credit. You can rent them out to cover costs and sell them when they gain value. The best type of area to buy is something in an area that is undergoing development/is soon. Since I’m in DFW that’s fucking everywhere.

Though when I say best I mean short term, if your looking a decade or more down a line of old farm land or plots in small towns near highways eventually will run for 5-20 times what you bought it for.

Good cheap land can be bought in any environment, but good houses in a town is obviously most lucrative when markets are down.

Can't wait to see all those pink wojacks from the retarded permabulls tomorrow.

Market is officially in a recess.

So this is not the right time to buy you agree, since houses here are at a ath and are rising too fast.

I feel the enormous technological advancements we have made since the last depression will soon lead to an abolishment of the stock market. Smartphones, Youtube, Wikipedia and internet culture have enabled everyone to be highly informed and make educated decisions lightning fast. Imagine how quickly faulty subprime mortgages would have been found by autists on reddit or Jow Forums and then propagated via social media.

Wall Street is no longer the playground of the elites and I wonder how much longer they will tolerate us.

There are a lot more People on the stock market which are not always the most educated on the topic. Imagine all the panic sellers elites can profit on now that it takes 10 minutes to invest in stocks even if you know nothing about it .

Not unless you can find something cheap or in a developing area. Just keep in mind the price for Housing in already developed areas has no guarantee to ever drop.

there's no amount of education that will help people from panic selling or fomo buying.
misinformation travels 100x faster than truth, and many reject truth even when it finally arrives.
the elites, of course would welcome dumb money entering the market, there's no reason they wouldn't want more money in the game to work with.

>interest rates rise
>bond yields rise
>big capital takes profits out of stock markets, puts it in bonds
>economy grinds to halt from lack of capital
>lack of capital ensures no more growth in stock market
>dollar value goes up

That might be our future. Just a steady decline...

Brainlet here, why would the value of usd go up?

Available supply of USD goes down = Value of USD goes up.

Basically, when people can just loan easily from the bank, then the value of USD goes down because each time the bank creates a loan it basically creates new USD which causes inflation.

With high interest rates people will be less interested in loaning which means less dosh is pumped into the economy which causes deflation.

Also if people are reluctant to invest their money, then their money (USD) will be harder to get, which means its value increases.

It does not work quite as he claimed. USD raises in value with the market because yields are forced to rise with it or become irrelevant.

Rising interest rates hurt bond yields and by extension lower the value of currency. Thats how the government fights inflation, but I'm not sure how his thought process developed.

Maybe he is assuming literally everyone cashes out of the stock market, and then literally everyone puts that money into bonds, but that would cause super inflation and USD would be worth nothing. Gold would resurface and multiply in value several times over, as would land, and any physical asset really.

TLDR: Higher bond yields=Higher stock market value
Higher Interest Rates=Lower bond Yields
Lower stock market=less value on the dollar

I just put in some buy orders for ETFs, hoping to buy the dip.
Am I retarded? Will it keep going down for a while or is now the right time?

Yep, that's my goal.

Just dollar cost average in that bitch if you aren't confident.

>TLDR: Higher bond yields=Higher stock market value
what

higher interest rates means higher cost to borrow means companies are paying more to service their debt, less suitable growth opportunities = lower stock market value

stupid anime poster tripfag

During periods of economic expansion, bonds and the stock market trade inversely as they are competing for capital. Selling in the stock market leads to lower yields as money moves into the bond market. Stock market rallies lead to rising yields as money moves from the safety of the bond market to riskier stocks. Under these circumstances, when optimism about the economy grows, money moves into the stock market as it is more leveraged to economic growth. Additionally, economic growth also carries with it inflation risk, which erodes the value of bonds.

lock in your low interest rate while you can, i don't fuckiing know what men get off on by dressing as women, when a woman goes through child birth she holds a baby, when i see a mans mascarea running becuause he's crying and dressed as a woman, he's a fucking faggot.

Welp, time to go read back up on the oil situation

Wait what's going on now
Are people still mad that saudis tortured that newscaster guy?

Any tips or a guide on creating a diversified portfolio?
Going for a long-term investing plan.

to where? what's the top? fuckers love claiming shit bottomed, and I see further downward movement which is why I will fucking make it, and you'll just be a pourman.

I don't know if anyone really cares but they'll definitely use it as ammunition.
Trump had to at least act like he cared which in turn prompted the Saudis to talk back.
If they hurt Trump's ego he might actually do something.

They kidnapped him probably on orders of the Saudi gov and cut him into pieces inside a consulate. No trial, pure crystal execution.

Can't let that slide. Sets a dangerous precedence.

I also want to see house of Saud get their shit pushed in for 9/11.

change the narrative goy, oy vey.

i got an idea, lets respect musliims, and call jews the problem with everything everywhere in the world. then while my kid will drive a benz you're kid will have a hard time finding friends.

Why would they do that inside their consulate, though? They could have just snatched im off the street.

Diversify over time by averaging into your positions.
Diversify across the market by investing in different sectors.
Diversify your portfolio by owning between 1-3 dozen companies.

Some people also recommend diversifying across market capitalization, but I don't believe in that. Only buy large cap blue chips.

Arrogance

How do index funds factor into diversification? Are they a good starter investment?

diversity is for losers, who can't pick winners and losers. massive faggots who can't predict vix spikes and profit at the times when others are in a panic.

the dow is the top 30 by market cap, the s&p is 500 by market cap and if you like tech pump and dumps look the the nasdaq.

yeah they're good starter investments, there's nothing wrong with buying broad arrangements of good companies, like the dow.

good day negroes, whats your gameplan for this week

They are diversified by definition. If you don't know what you want out of investing, then an S&P 500 fund is a safe bet. Historically it's an 8% capital gains savings account.

What's good way to invest in overseas markets? Name I want to focus on China, India and Brazil as (even though they are going through some rough times right now) I see a lot of potential for their growth? Are 'emerging market' ETF's worth it? It seems like the market has been flooded with ETF's of various qualities.

I would expect the opposite why do u think its gonna be good?

I don't expect it, It would just be nice. Trump has been assuring everyone he respects and loves Xi this last week and China has been openly stating they want to come to the table.

Xi and Trump will be meeting next month, I would call it a 50/50 shot at some sort of half hearted resolution/progress IF we don't have significant shit slinging between now and then.

Looking at what they say and what we have on paper I see no way of warming up on trade from both sides

We don't need to be pals. We need to shake hands once, go home with false victories and pretend everything is fine again.

i expect them to give each other hand jobs, and the mutual benefit for global economies will be felt after we deliver freedom to iran, screen cap this.

I promised free steak dinners if it happens, so my feelings become more conflicted as time draws nearer.

>Rising interest rates hurt bond yields and by extension lower the value of currency. Thats how the government fights inflation.

WTF???

Bond prices move inversely to their yield. In a period of rising interest rates bond prices will fall until their yield increases to match the market rate.

The fed Fed buys or sells bonds to control the money supply, and helps to control inflation. Since the Fed is letting their bond purchases expire, bond prices are decreasing and their yields are increasing.

How so? You said high interest rates hurt bond yields. That is not true. Look at the 1980 volker years where interest rates we over 14%.

When a bond's yield rises, by definition, its price falls, and when a bond's yield falls, by definition, its price increases.

Interest Rate+ Bond Yield -

I suppose rather than saying hurt, I should have said lowered. I see where that could have caused confusion.

EX:
You've just purchased a bond with a maturity of five years, a coupon of 5.0%, and you bought it at par (i.e.; 100%), investing $1,000. At this point, your bond is worth exactly what you paid for it, no more and no less. Also, just to be clear, you will receive annual interest of $50 ($1,000 x 5.0% = $50), plus a return of your principal at maturity. However, the market value of your bond will fluctuate after your purchase as interest rates rise or fall. Let's assume that interest rates rise. In fact, let's assume they rise to 7.0%. Because new bonds are now being issued with a 7.0% coupon, your bond, which has a 5.0% coupon, is not worth as much as it was when you bought it. Why? If investors can invest the same $1,000 and purchase a bond that pays a higher interest rate, why would they pay $1,000 for your lower-interest bond? In this case, the value of your bond would be less than $1,000. Hence, your bond would be trading at a discount. Conversely, if interest rates were to fall after your purchase, the value of your bond would rise because investors cannot buy a new issue bond with a coupon as high as yours. In this case, your bond would be worth more than $1,000. Hence, it would trade at a premium.

Like all of his other deals, it will be 90% the same as before and Trump will talk about how great of a dealmaker he is.

I don't see a need to diversify across several sectors for swing trading. Long hodl is a different story. For swing i prefer to specialize in a single sector and focus all research efforts on it. If i know the basic DD on all the main tickers it's much easier for me to select positions to enter when good entry opportunities arise. 3-5 open positions plus 30% cash to cost average or jump on occasional day trades is my comfy zone. After buying up last week dip i'm now 0% cash and slightly nervous. Should be fine though. My stuff has catalysts this week.
