>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, Ratsu has the IQ of swiss cheese, 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.

as per the last thread, if ETFs arent meant to be used for beating the market, then what the hell are you suppose to buy? Are you expecting every single NPC to research individual companies and buy them for decades at a time? Whats fundamentally wrong with owning SPY and QQQ exclusively and just taking the volatility because those ETFs will always come back as long as we have a functioning US economy?

Thank you for your sacrifice user

tfw sold AMD at 28 USD after Soros said he was going balls deep.

When Soros goes in, you know it's going to dump. Besides, AMD profit doesn't anywhere close to justify current share price. Gaining 5-10% server marketshare is priced in.

Ok market you can begin recovering now. I've taken my profits from shorting you. So start recovering so I can have a go with that broad from that porno flick.

There’s nothing wrong with owning SPY and QQQ. But by definition, you won’t beat the market by owning them, because by owning them you own the market.

The only way to beat the market consistently is to dig deep and research individual companies. Mostly small companies that have tremendous growth potential or new, groundbreaking technology. You need to get in while the market cap is too small for institutional investors. The failure rate of this approach for most individual investors is very high, so the best avenue is to own broad market ETFs.

This happens when funds blindly try to invest based on"fundamentals" :)

If you're not beating the market aren't you technically losing?

If you're still a bull, you have to be retarded.
Do you not understand the significance of what happened to AAPL?

what period is an analyst price target even for? like on yahoo they have a consensus price "target" on most stocks. wtf

U.S. equity markets are structurally trash and deserve to crash. Everyone is either with a mutual fund thanks to enormous brainwashing campaigns or buying/selling in front of their order flow with varying degrees of leverage and hedges. No heterogeneity and that's before even taking into account the bots and laws written to further manipulate the tendency of the market such as PTD rule, short sale restrictions, tax incentives, etc. It needs to burn.

Over the last 15 years, only 5% of ETF and mutual fund managers beat the return of the S&P 500. The odds of beating the market are against you.

If you’re getting broad market returns, you’re beating everyone that holds actively managed funds. That’s not losing.

Why tho?

over the past 15 days every bear shit has beat the return of the S&P 500. even the kid putting change into his piggy bank has had a better return than you. That's fucking losing.

I read a few articles from this guy and I think that he is overly excited for this tech. If xpoint were this revolutionary Intel would have detailed processor usecases to the public already.

OH NOOO ONE TECH COMPANY MADE SLIGHTLY LESS MONEY THAN PEOPLE WERE EXPECTING, BETTER SELL EVERYTHING
PLEASE SELL I'VE LOST SO MUCH MONEY

Me a couple years ago:
>> Hey, I should get into nanocaps! Most active fund managers outperform the index, so the efficient market hypothesis doesn't hold and you can outperform the index without too many issues!

Me 2 years later: I should have just bought the SQQQ instead, it has held its value better over time than the nanocaps I bought, since all of them ended up going pink sheet on me, through pump & dumps or dilution.

You’re talking about a different issue entirely.

I’ve been in cash since the beginning of 2018. I beat the market last year. I’ll beat the market this year. Market timing works if you know what to look for.

But when I’m long equities, it’s not individual stocks. It’s broad market indexes.

source of the graph?

i think you may be confused on what is going on.....

>looks at a chart rising at steady rate for decades and decades
Wew stonks sure are random who knows where they go

> One company
> 13% of the NASDAQ market cap

holy shit dude, when my vxx put went lower i just bought more and now that everything is rebounding off the low i'm making even more money than I would have been making had I not bought cheapies.

Considering the importance of those companies and how they crashed, I'm actually surprised the broad indexes didn't crash as much as them. Quite surprised, even.

There he is.
Everyone point and laugh.

is the top 5 techies really half of the entire SP500

wheres netflix they should have a solid slice too

AAPL's p/e is 12 and its PEG is under 1. Its undervalued regardless of "concerns in china".

everyone realizes they're putting out this information themselves right? they've got billions of dollars they can buy back stock with and its easier to do so when the price is down. DCA on this up up to 200+ again

It also gets more than half of its income from a single product line, the Iphone.

Now consider that it has stopped publishing its sales numbers for that product, and that the way it is growing its revenue in the last few years is by just increasing the price, and by having software updates that intentionally slow down old phones to force them to be obsolete after a couple of years. And that the Iphone has a ton of competition from other manufacturers.

Apple has become cheap because it is a shrink stock, simple as that.

Tim Cook is more worried about monitoring his T cell count than his company's financials. Must not get good WiFi in those bathhouses.

So people who had puts on Apple are millionaires right?

False. It literally depends on what the fund is investing in.
