380 | 15 | Why did stock prices for property type businesses fall so much despite the increased demand and prices for properties? | null | 66 comments | 2023-07-10 | I invest in various rental property type stocks and such because they often offer dividends I like. I don't really mind that they went down a bunch because I personally am not buying them with the goal of selling them, but it has kind of blown my mind watching a few of them lose like 30-40% of their value this past year.Don't get me wrong, I get recessions and blah blah blah, but I hear more than ever about how the demand for housing has gone up, more houses are being built, and so on. Plus lots of my co workers are buying places and a lot of my online friends talk about it; it feels like a lot of people are interested in buying despite the inflated prices....So why did the stocks of the companies related to it drop so much? Wouldn't they be booming since everyone is investing in land? | 2023-07-24 |

382 | 1 | What happens to demand for Shutterstock and Getty pictures now with Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, Dezgo, etc? What do people prefer? | null | 6 comments | 2023-07-10 | Let's say you're looking for stock photos... where do you go? People used to go to Shutterstock, or Getty. In this new age of generative AI, has that changed? Will it change? I don't know whether to go long or short on these guys... their implementation of generative AI into their platforms will seemingly generate loads of revenue except unless their technology can keep up with the competition (right now it can't) then how does the market react? Curious to hear anyone's thoughts or if anyone has switched gears and gone from using Shutterstock or Getty to websites like what I listed in the title. | 2023-07-24 |
383 | 248 | What is the actual math that determines a stock price? | null | 326 comments | 2023-07-09 | Why I need to know: As a programming portfolio project, I want to make a 'mock market' where fake stocks change price based on market forces. I've googled around but can't find any specific formula or algorithm that does this.I understand the concept of "people buy, price goes up, people sell, price goes down". This is straightforward and makes sense, but is not detailed enough for what I need to know.So really, how is the ticker price calculated every few seconds? What is the mathematical process that has to happen? A friend who works in finance said he thinks it's just the mean of all the bids and asks in the exchange, but I was shocked he didn't know for sure.Any help is greatly appreciated! | 2023-07-24 |
384 | 5 | (7/10) Monday's Pre-Market Stock Movers & News | null | 0 comments | 2023-07-10 | Good Monday morning traders and investors of the r/stocks sub! Welcome to the new trading week and a fresh start! Here are your pre-market stock movers & news on this Monday, June 10th, 2023-Stock futures are flat ahead of key inflation data this week and the start of Q2 earnings season: Live updatesStock futures were little changed Monday as investors prepared for a slate of inflation data later in the week and braced for the start of the second-quarter earnings season.Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 39 points, or 0.11%. Nasdaq-100 futures dropped 0.19%, while S&P 500 lost just 0.03%.This week’s inflation data follows a rate hike skip at the June Federal Open Market Committee meeting. The consumer price index report is due out Wednesday, followed by the producer price index — a measure of wholesale price pressures — due Thursday.Wall Street is coming off a losing week. The S&P 500 pulled back 1.16%, while the Nasdaq Composite and Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.92% and 1.96%, respectively.Despite nonfarm payrolls growing less than expected in June, slightly stronger-than-expected wage growth raised concern over the potential for more Federal Reserve rate hikes.Investors also have a slew of quarterly earnings reports to consider this week. Finance behemoths BlackRock, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Citi will all report and kick off the second-quarter earnings season.“We believe S&P 500 earnings will face significant pressure during the rest of the year and enter an earnings recession,” Morgan Stanley analyst Edward Stanley wrote in a Sunday note to investors. “The reason is negative operating leverage — when cost growth exceeds sales growth, earnings growth takes a steep hit.”STOCK FUTURES CURRENTLY:(CLICK HERE FOR STOCK FUTURES CHARTS!)LAST WEEK'S MARKET MAP:(CLICK HERE FOR LAST WEEK'S MARKET MAP!)TODAY'S MARKET MAP:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S MARKET MAP!)LAST WEEK'S S&P SECTORS:(CLICK HERE FOR LAST WEEK'S S&P SECTORS CHART!)TODAY'S S&P SECTORS:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S S&P SECTORS CHART!)TODAY'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR!)THIS WEEK'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS WEEK'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR!)THIS WEEK'S UPCOMING IPO'S:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS WEEK'S UPCOMING IPO'S!)THIS WEEK'S EARNINGS CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS WEEK'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)THIS MORNING'S PRE-MARKET EARNINGS CALENDAR:(N/A.)(CLICK HERE FOR THIS MORNING'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)EARNINGS RELEASES BEFORE THE OPEN TODAY:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS MORNING'S EARNINGS RELEASES!)THIS AFTERNOON'S AFTER-HOURS EARNINGS CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS MORNING'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)(N/A.)EARNINGS RELEASES AFTER THE CLOSE TODAY:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS AFTERNOON'S EARNINGS RELEASES!)FRIDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES:(CLICK HERE FOR FRIDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES LINK #1!)(CLICK HERE FOR FRIDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES LINK #2!)FRIDAY'S INSIDER TRADING FILINGS:(CLICK HERE FOR FRIDAY'S INSIDER TRADING FILINGS!)TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR!)THIS MORNING'S STOCK NEWS MOVERS:(source: cnbc.com)Advance Auto Parts — Advance Auto Parts declined 2.4% in the premarket after Atlantic Equities on Monday downgraded the stock to underweight, and cut its price target to $50.

385 | 210 | When are you getting into healthcare sector? | null | 229 comments | 2023-07-09 | Lately, I am paying very close attention to healthcare sector because they are getting hammered significantly and some of them are trading at close to 52 weeks low. Some of them that I am interested in are PFE, BMY, ABBV, and CVS. Is it time to get into it now or it has a room to fall further? What matrix and indicators are you watching to determine when to dive especially for healthcare sector? Is it better to toy with options rather than buying stocks for this sector now? | 2023-07-24 |
386 | 0 | This is Why Companies Need to Pay a Dividend | null | 32 comments | 2023-07-11 | How tech companies waste money by hiring employees to boost the ego of managers:https://www.businessinsider.com/tech-industry-fake-work-problem-bad-managers-bosses-layoffs-jobs-2023-7This kind of thing infuriates me, because as a shareholder, that money is mine. Without some financial constraint - like dividends - cash flow rich companies blow their revenue on vanity projects, corporate bureaucracy, and other BS. Sure, dividend paying companies can also do this, but at least they have less money to waste, because they're returning value to shareholders.The story about companies using their retained earnings to grow their earnings is just that - a pretty story. It sounds good, but doesn't work that way. At least by re-investing dividends, you're purchasing more of the same cashflow that a company has proven they can already generate. Not promises of greater earnings, when you know full well they're going to waste large chunks of your money.Bottom line: I don't trust companies that don't pay a dividend, because they will waste their retained earnings. | 2023-07-24 |
387 | 63 | Zoom stock analysis and valuation - Investigating the red flags | null | 31 comments | 2023-07-09 | This week's casual valuation is Zoom. I hope you enjoy these posts and feel free to add your take.Disclaimer: I do not own shares in ZoomThe post is divided into the following sections:Zoom today vs. Zoom 4 years agoMy previous valuation of Zoom (March 2022)Historical financial performanceThe bad newsRevenue splitManagement's story (and what is misleading)Assumptions & ValuationValuation based on assumptions different than mineZoom today vs. Zoom 4 years agoZoom is one of the companies that without a doubt had significant benefits from the pandemic. The share price is up 6% since the first trading day, but I'll argue that the company is A LOT cheaper than it was 4 years ago.It is best to illustrate that with a simple table:LTM (April 30th, 2019)LTM (April 30th, 2023)ChangeRevenue (in $m)$213$4,3931959%# of shares outstanding (in m)2722989%Share price$62.00$65.676%Market cap (in $m)$16,892$19,54016%Cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities & strategic investments$737$6,049721%Debt$103$91-11%Deferred revenue$149$1,366815%Enterprise value$16,407$14,948-9%Enterprise value is calculated as follows: Market cap minus Cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities & strategic investments plus Debt plus Deferred revenue.Zoom is almost 20x the size it was 4 years ago, and 9% cheaper.My previous valuation of Zoom (March 2022)This is not the first time that I looked into Zoom. The previous valuation was a bit over a year ago when the share price was $116.28, and based on my assumptions, the fair value was $78.45.There are some changes in my assumptions, mainly related to the growth rate, and the higher discount rate( due to the increase in the risk-free rate).Historical financial performanceA good place to start to reveal what I think is bad news for Zoom is the financials. Let's start with the revenue change:2020: 88%2021: 326% (Pandemic growth)2022: 55% (Pandemic growth)2023: 7%*Fiscal years ending January, hence year 2023 represents the 12 months between February 2022 and January 2023.The pandemic is behind us, and so is Zoom's growth story. I don't think this was unexpected as the demand for their products has reduced significantly.If we take a look at the 3 buckets of operating expenses, that's where it gets a bit odd. Here's a short summary for 2023:Research & Development $774m (18% of revenue) - higher than the historical average, and this is crucial for developing new products. Not all benefits from the new product introductions will be reflected in the current year, hence, a correlation between R&D and revenue growth in the same year should not be expected.General & Administrative $576m (13% of revenue) - in line with historical averageSelling & Marketing $1.7 billion (39% of revenue) - Huge increase compared to 2022 when this was $1.1 billion (28% of revenue)This leads to the bad news. For those that want a challenge, you can try to link the information above yourself and see if there's a red flag that you see.The bad newsThe purpose of Selling & Marketing expenses is to promote their products to the target customers and ultimately contribute to revenue growth.During FY 2023, Zoom spent $1.7 billion, which is a lot more than ever before, yet, the revenue growth was only 7% (less than $300 million). This seems quite odd, so I decided to take a look at how much it actually costs Zoom to acquire customers through this lens.Selling & Marketing (in $m)Absolute revenue change vs. PY (in $m)The ratio between the two2019$186$180$1.032020$341$292$1.172021$685$2,028$0.342022$1,136$1,49$0.782023$1,697$293$5.79LTM (April 30th, 2023)$1,757$206$8.53During 2019/2020 (pre-pandemic), to get $1 in revenue, it cost Zoom slightly over $1 in Selling & Marketing.During 2021/2022 (pandemic), it cost them a lot less, as customers were flowing organically.In 2023, it costs them $5.79, a huge increase. Not only that but if we take the last quarter into account, it gets worse to $8.53!In my opinion, the management wants to keep the "growth story" around Zoom. For that purpose, they spent as much as needed on Selling & Marketing, to acquire customers, so there is at least some growth.However, this growth is eating their margins.The operating margin is down from 25% to 6% and that is not creating sufficient value for the shareholders, to justify today's market cap.Revenue splitZoom has two types of customers:Online customers - representing the ones that have subscribed directly from the website. This consists mostly of individuals & small/medium businessesEnterprise customersIn 2021, 54% of all revenue was generated by online customers. For the last twelve months, that is down to 44%, meaning the enterprise customers are now generating 56% of the revenue.Although there's nothing wrong with this, it is important to note the management's story behind this.Management's story (and what is misleading)I looked at the presentations and here are some extracts that I think are important:Growth with Enterprise customers outpacing online and individual (Source: Investor Day presentation November 2022)Continued top-line growth with positive trends in Enterprise and Online (Source: Q1-2024 earnings presentation)The first statement is quite obvious, but I'll argue that the 2nd one is not only misleading but also incorrect. Here's how the revenue is developing since 2021 (that is when Zoom started providing the split of revenue between the two groups):Online customers (in $m)Enterprise customers (in $m)2021$1,442$1,2092022$2,148$1,9522023$1,986$2,407LTM (April 30th, 2023)$1,945$2,479Is there anything strange that you see? If not, focus on the online customers' column. Do you see "top-line growth with positive trend"?Me neither.The growth related to Enterprise customers can definitely be seen as a positive sign, but we should not forget the huge Selling & Marketing expense that was driving it, which ultimately doesn't lead to a creation of value for the shareholders.The outlook for 2024 is revenue around $4.5b (growth below 2% vs. 2023), which doesn't seem too impressive, but the analysts do expect the growth to resume in the years that follow.Assumptions & ValuationHere are my assumptions for the future:Revenue growth: 4% per year (Rationale: On one side, Zoom is investing heavily in R&D, which is expected to bring new products and additional revenue. However, the company is operating in an extremely competitive landscape. Therefore, I expect low growth in the future)Operating margin: 5% for next year, growing to 20% by year 10 (Rationale: The management has to cut S&M expenses in the coming period and deliver profitability and free cash flow. This means they won't grow a lot, which is what I expect in the assumption above)Discount rate: 11.5%After adjusting for what is on their balance sheet, as well as the equity options outstanding, the value of Zoom is roughly $8.8 billion ($29.55/share).For comparison, today’s market cap is $19.5 billion ($65.67/share).Valuation based on assumptions different than mineThe future is uncertain and my assumptions could be significantly wrong. Let's take a look at how the valuation (per share) changes if we use different assumptions related to the revenue 10 years from now as well as the operating margin.Revenue / Operating margin17%20%23%26%34% ($5.9b)$24.7$26.6$29.0$32.248% ($6.5b)$27.2$29.6$32.6$36.375% ($7.7b)$29.6$32.4$36.0$40.3100% ($8.8b)$31.8$35.0$39.0$43.9Even if Zoom doubles its revenue (representing a 7.2% annual growth rate) and expands its margin to 26%, it would still be overvalued.Could I be wrong? Absolutely.Feel free to share your thoughts, regardless if you agree or disagree with the post.As always, thank you for reading the post, and until next week! | 2023-07-24 |

393 | 2 | What is your favorite metaverse/VR stock? | null | 24 comments | 2023-07-09 | I decided to utilize the top-down approach and as I skimmed though diffrent sectors, the VR/AR industry caught my attention. According to Statista, the global VR market size is projected to grow from less than 12 billion U.S. dollars in 2022 to more than 22 billion U.S. dollars by 2025.I am personally looking for stocks with secular/huge growth ahead of them.ADSK has particularly caught my attention. Autodesk is a software corporation that makes software products and services for the architecture, engineering, construction, manufacturing, media, education, and entertainment industries. Autodesk generates money from selling subscriptions for software products and services, the maintenance fees they charge to customers who purchased software from Autodesk as a one-time purchase, and the consulting services they offer for their software and other aspects of their business. Considering Autodesk's wide range of software products/services, it has an edge over competitors who may not be able to fulfill all the needs of big corporations. | 2023-07-24 |

399 | 250 | Is $META going to benefit from Threads? | null | 240 comments | 2023-07-08 | One of the questions that many META shareholders have is, what is the impact of Threads on the company’s value?The answer isn’t simple, and I’ll try to break down the components and share my thoughts.Mark Zuckerberg shared that monetization options would be explored once Threads hits one billion users (As am I writing this, there are over 83 million users. For comparison, Twitter has close to 400 million).From Meta’s point of view, the so-called family of Apps includes two social media platforms - Facebook and Instagram. Both of these platforms are in mature monetization stages, where both the revenue per user and the margins are incredibly high.If we take a look at the big picture, all social media companies make money by selling advertisements. The formula behind that is simple:Number of users X Time spent on the platform X Advertisement revenueThe time that is being spent is limited, every one of us has 24 hours in a day and decides how to use (or waste) it.Part of the Facebook/Instagram users will use part of their time using Threads and the impact is obvious. If we take a look at the formula above, it is quite clear that the time spent on Facebook/Instagram will be lower, hence, the revenue generated there is expected to decrease. In addition, as Threads is not monetized, it will only bring additional expenses for keeping the platform up and running. In the short run, there shouldn’t be high expectations for Meta when it comes to the financials.Whether Threads will generate value, in the long run, depends on a few factors:- The # of users that join Threads, from Twitter.- The monetization per user of Threads, and how far it will be compared to Facebook/Instagram (So far, Twitter didn’t use its potential)- The outcome of the cease-and-desist letter sent to Meta by Spiro (Elon’s lawyer) for creating a “copycat” app.Meta's value will increase, only if:- The total number of users (Facebook/Instagram/Threads) increases at the expense of Twitter, and;- The revenue generated is higher and can cover the additional expenses for running Threads.I personally, do not think the new platform is creating a lot of value for Meta. | 2023-07-24 |
400 | 4 | STWD Hold or Sell? | null | 12 comments | 2023-07-09 | I started buying STWD during the pandemic when the price was lower and the yield was near 13%. I continued to buy more and overall I’ve lost money on the investment so far (down 8.85%). This is frustrating to watch during a time where tech and the overall market have gained in the past 6 months. It still pays a good dividend but with their exposure to some commercial real estate I’m worried it could see further losses from here. I do think it’s probably undervalued but my fear is that the market will take it lower from here along with the other reits. | 2023-07-24 |

402 | 18 | Thoughts on NDAQ purchasing Calypso/Adenza
Company Discussion | null | 4 | 2023-07-08 | NDAQ has been outperforming the s&p 500 for nearly a decade until now. When news of the deal purchasing Adenza (formerly calypso) broke the stock tumbled to $50
NDAQ says they are pivoting toward fintech rather than just exchange operation due to narrowing margins and limited growth. Not only did they purchase Adenza but they did so at what appears to be a very expensive price. Calypso was purchased by private equity for ~3.4b in 2021. Only 2 years later it was sold once more for 10.4b
I don't understand why they waited for 5% higher interest rates to buy this company instead of outbidding the private equity firm. Makes me mistrust management. I do not like roll-up companies, if NDAQs only way to grow is buying more companies at expensive prices I'd rather look elsewhere.
What are your thoughts on Adenza, can it contribute to NDAQ in such a way that it is worth the cost of debt? | 2023-07-24 |

404 | 8 | CIM-B: Higher for Longer
Company Analysis | null | 0 | 2023-07-08 | As the market continues to price in higher interest rates for longer, there is opportunity in owning floating rate securities. CIM-B is a preferred stock issued by Chimera Investment Corporation with a fixed rate coupon of 8.0%. CIM-B trades at a 15% discount to par leading to a current rate of 9.4%.
On 3/30/24, 9 months from now, CIM-B switches to a floating rate security of 5.79% + 3m SOFR + 0.26%. The 3m SOFR is the replacement for LIBOR and is currently at 5.26%. That puts the floating rate coupon at 11.3%. At the current price of $21.34, the yield would be 13.2%.
My investment thesis is that CIM-B moves to its par value of $25 over the next 9 months. I think there will be $1.50 in dividends and $3.66 in capital gains in those 9 months resulting in a 24% total return. I think $25 is a fair price because that puts the yield at 130 bps higher than the fixed rate CIM-A, more than enough additional yield to compensate for the potential for rate decreases. However, $25 is roughly the maximum share price as CIM can redeem the shares at $25 at anytime after 3/30/24. I wouldn’t be surprised if CIM does redeem the shares, a win for investors.
CIM-B is far from risk free, but I think the potential for a quick 9 month profit is worth the risk. CIM owns residential mortgages. Not the type guaranteed by Freddie or Fannie. If you remember the Big Short’s quote of dog shit wrapped in cat shit. CIM owns the dog shit. It’s not as bad as 2007. The mortgages have low loan to value (LTV) as mortgage standards are tighter and the housing market has had considerable appreciation since the mortgages were written. The job market for subprime mortgage customers is strong. CIM has minimal leverage allowing it to handle delinquencies.
It’s not a risk free 24% 9 month return, but I’m comfortable with it.
Here’s the CIM investor presentation
I encourage you to look up the details of CIM-B at QuantumOnline.com. Benefits of CIM-B include cumulative dividends (if CIM can’t pay preferred dividends, they accrue and must be fully paid before their common stock can pay a dividend.). CIM is an mREIT that must pay out 90% of profits to maintain its tax status, meaning the preferred stock dividends must be paid. Not a tax advisor, but every mREIT dividend I’ve seen qualifies as a 199A tax break effectively leading to dividends taxed at only 80% of your marginal tax rate.
If you want more ideas like CIM-B, here’s my previous posts. RITM-D

Advice Request | null | 26 | 2023-07-08 | Hello Reddit Investors,
I am looking for a few but good websites, where I can get help in deciding which stocks/sectors to invest my little wage leftover.
I am most curious about finding information about:
Current demand growth rate, long term projected growth rate, projected return on capital assets
Industry projection(for each company in the industry/sector) things like price to networth, projected pre-tax return on capital assets, projected market share, P/E, last earning report(cashflow, income, expenses, net profit, total debt) and other usefull information
Or, please share your website which helps you decide in buying stocks.
I am too lazy to calculate these things for each potential companies.
Thank you in advance.
TL:DR: useful websites for getting quick company information needed | 2023-07-24 |
407 | 1.1k | Nobody is going to warn you about what’s coming
Advice | null | 425 | 2023-07-07 | It’s sort of funny seeing everyone stressing out about Fed interest rate hikes, inflation, recession, etc.
Isn’t it true that all the known economic risks that people are discussing today are priced into the markets? If the risks are in the minds of the public long enough then it is less likely to occur, or won’t be as severe.
In the history of the stock market, it seems as though the biggest crashes and worst disasters were black swan events that obviously nobody saw coming at the time.
In January 2020 nobody warned me about the pandemic
When everyone was pumping speculative, high-growth tech stocks in late 2020, nobody warned me that the bubble would burst months later
In January 2022, when people were discussing the market outlook for the new year, nobody warned me that Russia was going to invade Ukraine.
In the Fall of 2022, when the market sentiment was god awful, and the media was spewing doomsday articles, nobody warned me that was the bottom of the bear market, so far, for stocks and crypto.
Nobody warned me about that regional banking crisis in March 2023
Nobody warned me before Toys R Us went out of business
Nobody would have warned me in 2007 about 2008.
Obviously, hardly anyone could have warned me about the events above and that’s the point.
I’m convinced that when the next severe recession does eventually hit, weeks or years from now, the catalyst that triggers it will not be anything we’re discussing now. The biggest threat to the economy and stock market today isn’t the Fed or inflation.
If anyone “warns” you about what’s going to happen they’re only trying to protect their money, not yours.
Everyone’s portfolio would perform better if we just turned off the news, delete the reddit and YouTube apps, and stick to our own convictions.

411 | 8 | Rising Real Yields Threaten High-Yield Companies’ Share Prices | null | 14 comments | 2023-07-08 | A surge in US real yields, reflecting the return on bonds adjusted for inflation, has raised concerns among investors about the implications for riskier assets such as stocks. The yield on 10-year inflation-protected securities (Tips) reached 1.82% on Friday, the highest level since 2009, as investors increasingly anticipated the Federal Reserve maintaining higher interest rates to combat inflation.Real yields serve as a vital indicator of borrowing costs throughout the economy, influencing the relative attractiveness of risky assets. The recent surge in real yields has made low-risk government debt more appealing, thereby diminishing the attractiveness of other investment options. This rise in borrowing costs is reminiscent of last October when bonds experienced a sharp sell-off, coinciding with a period of greater uncertainty surrounding US inflation.The repercussions of this increase in real yields pose a significant risk to the corporate sector. Debt acquired when interest rates were at or near zero may now require refinancing at much higher rates. Salman Ahmed, global head of macro and strategic asset allocation at Fidelity International, explains that the problem arises when companies need to refinance debt that was initially borrowed in a low-interest rate environment.For instance, a high-yield company that secured funding at around 4% during the pandemic may now face interest rates exceeding 12%. The impact of this sudden increase in borrowing costs could be severe for these companies as they grapple with the financial burden of refinancing their debt at significantly higher rates. Such a shock to the financial system can exert downward pressure on the affected company’s share price, potentially leading to increased volatility in the equity market.Furthermore, analysts anticipate that the effects of higher borrowing costs will be more acutely felt in the latter half of next year and into 2025. Many companies took advantage of slashed interest rates during pandemic lockdowns to secure loans, supporting the economy. However, with lending already slowing down this year, the tighter financial conditions resulting from rising yields may amplify the challenges faced by businesses.The implications of these shifting monetary and financial conditions are not limited to individual companies. Investors are growing increasingly concerned about US equity valuations as financial conditions tighten. The relationship between stock prices and returns compared to Tips is changing. Jon Day, fixed income portfolio manager at Newton Investment Management, highlights the need for higher equity returns to match the rising real yields. The disparity between expected equity returns and the current market conditions is a significant factor behind the recent stock sell-off triggered by the Fed minutes.While equities have experienced substantial gains this year, largely driven by investor enthusiasm for companies leveraging artificial intelligence, some investors question whether a buoyant stock market and apprehensive bond investors can both be correct.Overall, the surge in US real yields carries substantial implications for various aspects of the financial landscape. The shock of higher borrowing costs for companies that raised funds at lower rates during the pandemic can significantly impact their share prices.Additionally, the slowdown in lending, coupled with tightening monetary and financial conditions, raises concerns about the valuation of companies. As investors grapple with these uncertainties, the relationship between stock prices and real yields becomes a crucial factor to watch in the coming months. | 2023-07-24 |
412 | 4 | Investment strategy modification | null | 2 comments | 2023-07-08 | Hello !After a loss due to a meme stock (and a big win also, thanks also to a meme stock), I chose to modify my strategy investment (to remove stress from my life; I have enough stress with my work) and was wondering if you could give me any advice.I think of doing the following every month (in % of my revenue; I don't have a lot of expenses so the amounts are adapted to my revenue and I plan to invest during at least 10 years) :9.8% in Raiffeisen Futura - Pension Invest Growth V (https://boerse.raiffeisen.ch/fr-ch/fonds/detail/18932233?exchangeid=393) (this is a fund) ;6.5% in Synchrony High Dividend Swiss Stocks A ( https://www.swissfunddata.ch/sfdpub/fr/funds/show/79142) (this is a fund) ;6.5% in Synchrony (CH) World Equity (CHF) ( https://www.swissfunddata.ch/sfdpub/fr/funds/show/29036) (this is a fund) ;3.7% in a phamaceutical company that awaits FDA approval (I can't provide the ticker because of market cap limitation (~100 millions for now) ).Based on this plan, would you please have any advices or recommandations ?Thanks in advance for your inputs ! | 2023-07-24 |

416 | 123 | Prediction thread from the start of 2023 - a shining example of how bad people are at predicting the future | null | 91 comments | 2023-07-07 | ERROR: type should be string, got "https://www.reddit.com/r/stocks/comments/zxbjuf/what_are_your_predictions_for_2023/The overwhelming sentiment was more pain in 2023, with the market starting to recover in late 2023. The sentiment for Q1 was pretty much unanimously negative. From what I can see, pretty much ZERO people predicted a strong rally in Q1/Q2. People who predicted any kind of positive gains in 2023 were downvoted (sort by controversial).Today, after 6 months, SPY is up +16% and QQQ is up a staggering +40%.I hope this helps to demonstrate how difficult it is to predict the market (and yet people do it with such confidence every day, just look at the prediction thread). Take everything you read on this sub with a massive grain of salt. NOBODY knows what the market will do next. The people who get hurt the most in the market are the ones who believe they do.Investing is one of those strange things where the more research you do and the more trades you make, the worse you tend to do. Women tend to outperform men simply because they are more likely to just buy and hold. In fact, in one study the demographic that performed the best was those who had passed away, since they were unable to make any trades. The sooner that you realize how difficult it is to time the market successfully, the better your performance will be.As always, I recommend a DCA strategy into market ETF's and hold long term." | 2023-07-24 |

420 | 118 | Why does Disney (DIS) carry so much goodwill on their balance sheet? | null | 62 comments | 2023-07-07 | Hi!I was recently looking over some financial statements for Disney and noticed on their balance sheet they carry a significant amount of "goodwill":2018201920202021202231,269.080,293.077,689.078,071.077,897.0As i understand, "goodwill" is added to the balance sheet when a merger/acquisition of 2 companies occurs. So, for example, if Disney bought My Cable Company for $100 million, and My Cable Company had assets of $90 million and liabilities totaling $15 million...making the present value of the company $75 million. This would mean Disney could record $25 million of "goodwill" on the balance sheet.By this logic, does that mean Disney is continually shelling out cash for companies at a price higher than their current value? Presumably in hopes of increasing future revenues?Thanks in advance! | 2023-07-24 |

422 | 9 | Unveiling the Economic Puzzle: Change in Rate Expectations, and Economic Indicators. | null | 8 comments | 2023-07-07 | Over the past two weeks, a comprehensive set of economic data has provided economists and investors with a detailed understanding of the US economy. Notably, today’s market reversal was driven by a shift in market expectations for the Federal Reserve’s target rate, presenting a challenging path forward for the stock market and raising uncertainties.The latest labor market data revealed a hint of tepidness in the June nonfarm payrolls report. Job growth of 209,000 fell slightly below consensus expectations, and revisions showed a net gain of 99,000 jobs, signaling a slower pace compared to previous months. This suggests that the ongoing reduction in the M2 measure of money is gaining traction and beginning to impact the economy. Tight monetary policy, as a result of the Federal Reserve’s hiking cycle, is starting to have an effect.Despite the softer labor market data, it is unlikely to deter the Federal Reserve from raising short-term interest rates at the upcoming July 26 meeting. Civilian employment, including small-business start-ups, rose by 273,000, pushing the unemployment rate down to 3.6%. Average hourly earnings increased, and total hours worked saw an uptick, reinforcing the belief that the Fed perceives the need for further stabilization of the economy through additional rate hikes.A divergence becomes apparent when shifting focus to the goods and services sectors. The ISM Manufacturing index continued its contraction for the eighth consecutive month, reflecting concerns about a slowing US economy and reduced customer demand. In contrast, the ISM Services index rose to 53.9 in June, with fifteen out of eighteen major industries reporting growth, surpassing even the most optimistic forecasts. While signs of a potential recession loom, the services side of the economy appears to be holding up for now, with business activity and new orders within the services sector remaining in expansion territory.International trade data indicated a decline in the trade deficit for goods and services to $69.0 billion in May, accompanied by decreases in both imports and exports. This aligns with forecasts of a recession, reflecting weakened domestic demand for goods and a shift towards increased spending on services. Import numbers from China have plummeted by 24.3% compared to the same period last year, resulting in China slipping to the third-largest exporter to the US behind Mexico and Canada. Falling daily freight rates further indicate a weakened global trade environment.The most significant market impact today was driven by new expectations for the Federal Reserve’s target rate. The provided data reveals an increasing probability, now at 92.4%, of the target rate falling within the 525-550 basis points range. This shift in rate expectations has led investors to reassess their strategies and pricing models, incorporating the potential impact on various asset classes.Though rates off recent highs, this week's still-large backup in yields reflects fears of a more aggressive Fed and continued global tightening (though market pricing continues to forecast only a single July rate hike before the Fed pauses).Considering the implications for the stock market, the outlook appears uncertain. The ongoing slowdown in the goods sector, coupled with reduced demand and inventory buildup, raises concerns about future factory output. Persistent inflationary pressures, as indicated by the prices index within the manufacturing sector, pose challenges for companies.As the market adjusts to shifting rate expectations and economic indicators, caution should be exercised. The stock market may face downward pressure as it navigates these uncertainties, potentially impacting company valuations and investor sentiment. Market participants are urged to closely monitor developments, adapt investment strategies accordingly, and remain diligent in risk management.The message the world’s top central bankers delivered late last month could not have been clearer. Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey, and his US and eurozone counterparts Jay Powell and Christine Lagarde, all insisted that high inflation — and high interest rates — would endure.The impact of the shifting economic landscape and changing rate expectations will mainly impact cyclical stocks, stocks particularly sensitive to economic fluctuations. Cyclical stock industries include automotive, construction, technology hardware, manufacturing, consumer durables, housing, airlines, travel and leisure. The slowdown in the goods sector, coupled with potential rate hikes, could present challenges for companies within these sectors. | 2023-07-24 |
423 | 10 | Wall Street Week Ahead for the trading week beginning July 10th, 2023 | null | 3 comments | 2023-07-07 | Good Friday evening to all of you here on r/stocks! I hope everyone on this sub made out pretty nicely in the market this past week, and are ready for the new trading week ahead. :)Here is everything you need to know to get you ready for the trading week beginning July 10th, 2023.Stocks tumble on Friday, notching weekly losses, as traders' rate hike fears return: Live updates - (Source)Stocks fell on Friday, and finished lower for the week, as Wall Street struggled to shake off fears that the Federal Reserve may start hiking rates again later this month.The S&P 500 lost 0.29% to end at 4,398.95, while the Nasdaq Composite dipped 0.13% to close at 13,660.72. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 187.38 points, or 0.55%, to settle at 33,734.88.All three major averages capped a losing week. The S&P dropped 1.16%, while the Nasdaq declined 0.92%. The Dow shed 1.96% for its worst weekly performance since March.The Labor Department’s June jobs report showed payrolls increased less than expected, cooling down from May. Nonfarm payrolls rose by 209,000, while the unemployment rate came in at 3.6%. Economists polled by Dow Jones had anticipated 240,000 positions added and a similar jobless level.But parts of the report, including stronger-than-expected wage numbers, heightened fears that the central bank may have reason to resume hiking later this month. Average hourly earnings increased by 0.4% in June and 4.4% from a year ago. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate declined from 3.7% in May.“It’s kind of a mixed picture today,” said Truist’s Keith Lerner. “It’s good news that the economy is not falling apart, it’s still chugging along, but you still have these wage pressures that are going to keep the Fed likely to raise rates at the end of the month.”Near term, Lerner said equities are ripe for a pullback following a big June and second quarter. This could lead to consolidation and choppy action as markets head into earnings season.Following Friday’s big data release, traders kept their bets on a resumption in hiking later this month, pricing in a 92% chance of a quarter-point hike on July 26. Those are about the same odds as a day ago, according to CME Group’s FedWatch tool. Policymakers indicated at their June gathering that two more rate hikes could be ahead in 2023.This past week saw the following moves in the S&P:(CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL S&P TREE MAP FOR THE PAST WEEK!)S&P Sectors for this past week:(CLICK HERE FOR THE S&P SECTORS FOR THE PAST WEEK!)Major Indices for this past week:(CLICK HERE FOR THE MAJOR INDICES FOR THE PAST WEEK!)Major Futures Markets as of Friday's close:(CLICK HERE FOR THE MAJOR FUTURES INDICES AS OF FRIDAY!)Economic Calendar for the Week Ahead:(CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL ECONOMIC CALENDAR FOR THE WEEK AHEAD!)Percentage Changes for the Major Indices, WTD, MTD, QTD, YTD as of Friday's close:(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)S&P Sectors for the Past Week:(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Major Indices Pullback/Correction Levels as of Friday's close:(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Major Indices Rally Levels as of Friday's close:(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Most Anticipated Earnings Releases for this week:(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Here are the upcoming IPO's for this week:(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Friday's Stock Analyst Upgrades & Downgrades:(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART LINK #1!)(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART LINK #2!)Stellar NASDAQ 1st Half Dampens July and Q3 Performance(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)NASDAQ finished the first half of 2023 with a stellar 31.7% gain. This is NASDAQ’s third best first half ever. Only 1975 and 1983 were better. In the following table we compiled all years since 1971 when NASDAQ was up 20% or more in the first half. Reviewing the table, we observed only two times out of the past eleven where the second half of the year was better than the first half (1999 and 2003). July and Q3 were also below average following a 20%+ first half gain while Q4 was better than average.This reinforces our existing tepid outlook for Q3. Today’s much stronger than anticipated jobs data has increased expectations for another Fed interest rate hike and added more uncertainty as to when the Fed will eventually pause. Increasing uncertainty is likely to lead to more volatility and a sideways to possibly lower market during the historically weak third quarter.Big Picture: The Economy is NormalizingWe started this year discussing how the economy has been at the “edge of normal” in our 2023 outlook. The good news is that we have slowly but surely moved towards normal since then, even in the face of a banking crisis and debt ceiling drama. The “soft” economic data from sentiment surveys have been poor, but the “hard” data that measure actual employment, sales, and production, have painted a much brighter picture.We discussed last month how we combine a lot of the economic data into our own proprietary leading economic index (LEI), which we produce for 30 countries around the world, each one custom-built to capture the dynamics of those economies. The individual country LEIs are also subsequently rolled up into a global index to give us a picture of the global economy. The idea is to give us an early warning signal about economic turning points. Simply put, it tells us what the economy is doing today and what it is likely to do in the near future.For example, our index for the U.S. includes 20+ components, including consumer-related indicators (which make up 50% of the index), housing activity, business and manufacturing activity, as well as sentiment and financial markets data. This contrasts with other popular LEIs, which are premised on the fact that the manufacturing sector and business activity/sentiment are leading indicators of the economy. This worked well in the past but is probably not indicative of what’s happening in the economy right now.Right now, our LEI suggests the US economy is growing along trend, or slightly above it. The economic picture looks even better than it did at the end of 2022. Six months ago, the risk of recession was higher, though even then, the LEI didn’t say that we were in a recession, or even very close to one.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)However, we’re seeing some interesting dynamics under the hood.2022 Headwinds are FadingAs I mentioned above, our LEI has been consistently saying that the U.S. economy is not in a recession. That was almost entirely thanks to a resilient consumer, with strong employment gains powering incomes and consumption. Pushing against this was an aggressive Federal Reserve and tighter financial conditions. Consequently, the sector that took the biggest hit last year was housing, followed by a slowdown in business spending and manufacturing activity.But a turnaround looks to be happening now.As you can see below, the LEI has been rebounding over the last few months. That’s come on the back of declining headwinds from housing (yellow), business/manufacturing activity (green), and financial conditions.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)In fact, housing has moved to being a positive contributor! We’ve written about how why we believe housing will no longer be a drag on the economy after 8 straight quarters of pulling GDP growth lower. Even business activity is exerting a lower drag on the economy – we just wrote last week about how investment has been rising recently, hopefully signaling a bottom.Financial conditions appear to be easing, especially with the Fed moderating the pace of rate hikes and interest rates inching close to their terminal level for the cycle.Most importantly, consumption remains positive, though less so than a few months ago. This is not really a concern in my opinion (at least, not yet), as it simply indicates that consumption trends are normalizing. The latest contribution from consumption to our LEI is equivalent to its pre-pandemic contributions.Ultimately, the big picture is that the economy looks to be finally normalizing after a few years of being whipped around by the pandemic, and its after-effects.Factory Orders Go NegativeThe last 24 hours have been rough for economic data both in the US and around the world as most indicators released have been weaker than expected. It started with weaker-than-expected PMI readings for the services sector in China but has since spread to weaker PMI readings for most major economies in the Eurozone as well. Here in the US, PMI data on the services sector will not be forthcoming until tomorrow morning, but Factory Orders released this morning were a big miss. At the headline level, orders for the month of May increased 0.3% which was a half percentage point below consensus expectations. Not only that but April’s reading was also revised down from growth of 0.4% down to 0.3%. After stripping out Transportation, Factory Orders declined 0.5% while April’s reading was revised from a decline of 0.2% down to a drop of 0.6%.On a year/year basis, Factory Orders also dipped into negative territory for the first time since October 2020. The chart below shows the historical y/y change in Factory Orders since 1960. While readings were negative during every recession, there were plenty of other periods where they also declined on a y/y basis and the economy was nowhere near a recession. Not only that but there were also many other periods during economic expansions where Factory Orders dropped by a much larger amount on a y/y basis.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)While the magnitude of the decline in Factory Orders hasn’t been extreme, what is unique about the current period is how long the rate of change in Factory Orders has been declining. The chart below shows streaks where the y/y change in Factory Orders increased (blue line) or declined (red line). With May’s report, the rate of change in Factory Orders on a year/year basis has declined for a record eight straight months, breaking the prior record of seven months that was seen during recessions in the mid-1970s, early 1980s, and during the Financial Crisis. The fact that prior streaks of similar duration all occurred during recessions isn’t exactly reassuring. What makes it less worrisome, though, is that the decline is coming after Durable Goods experienced record growth and consistency of growth coming out of the COVID crash.There's plenty of evidence out there to cite as reasons why the US economy is teetering on the edge of a recession or merely in a slowdown, and parts of today's Factory Orders report could honestly be used to help justify either viewpoint.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Why July Brings the Bulls“I am an optimist because I don’t see the point in being anything else.” -Abraham LincolnAnd with that, the first half of the year is a wrap. What can we say other than all those calls for a recession and new bear market lows sure didn’t play out. We were one of the only places predicting there wouldn’t be a recession this year and to look for stocks to possibly gain 12-15% (and maybe more with some good news). It was a lonely call and we took a lot of heat for it, but we are noticing more and more shops are coming over to the no-recession camp.I noted in Why a Sunny Second Half of 2023 is Likely some reasons to expect more gains after the big start to this year. Well, here’s another angle on that. I looked at all the years that were up more than 10% at the midpoint of the year, but were also negative the year before. In other words, a potential slingshot move. Sure enough, stocks did even better when this took place, with the S&P 500 higher those final six months eight out of nine times and up a median of 12.4% – well above the median final six month return of 7.7% when those first six months gain more than 10%.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)So, can this surprise summer rally continue? As Honest Abe would say, might as well be an optimist and we think it can, as July historically is a strong month. Of course, it isn’t just about seasonals, as the realization the economy may not be going into a recession and a Fed that is likely done hiking are both also positives, which should keep things moving higher in July.For starters, stocks have gained 9 of the past 10 years in July, with no month sporting a better average return over the past decade than the 3.3% July gain for the S&P 500. Why is this you ask? The one thing I keep thinking about is July kicks off Q2 earnings season and in the past 10 years overall we’ve seen a lot of doubt out there. It is likely that earnings come in better than expected, calming many of the fears and allowing for a rally. We think that could happen once again this year.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Let’s be clear though, July is usually a good month in the middle of the weak summer months. The chart below shows this nicely. Since 1950, stocks gain 1.3% on average in July, but this goes up to 2.2% in the past 20 years and 3.3% in the past decade. Pre-election years are a little weaker, up 0.9%. Lastly, when stocks gain more than 3% in the usually weak June (15 times since 1950), stocks gain only 0.8% on average and are higher only 8 times. So, there could be the chance June steals some of July’s gains.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)Lastly, we’ve shared the next chart many times the past few months, as it suggested the potential for a summer rally when very few expected it. We call this the Carson Cycle Composite, as it is a proprietary indicator that combines the past 20 years, pre-election years, the third year of a new President, and years that saw stocks gain at least 5% in January (like ’23). As you can see, a rally in July is normal and we don’t believe ’23 to be any different.(CLICK HERE FOR THE CHART!)We want to be clear, at some point stocks will take a well-deserved break. August, September, and October usually can see this volatility and it very well could happen again this year. But we remain overweight equities and we’d use any seasonal weakness as an opportunity to add to core equity exposure.Here is the list of notable companies reporting earnings in this upcoming trading week ahead-(T.B.A. THIS WEEKEND.)(CLICK HERE FOR NEXT WEEK'S MOST NOTABLE EARNINGS RELEASES!)(CLICK HERE FOR NEXT WEEK'S HIGHEST VOLATILITY EARNINGS RELEASES!)(T.B.A. THIS WEEKEND.)(CLICK HERE FOR MONDAY'S PRE-MARKET NOTABLE EARNINGS RELEASES!)(N/A.)DISCUSS!What are you all watching for in this upcoming trading week?I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and an awesome trading week ahead r/stocks. :) | 2023-07-24 |
424 | 43 | BLS jobs report, missed: 209k vs 225k expected | null | 17 comments | 2023-07-07 | Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 209,000 in June, and the unemployment rate changed little at 3.6 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today.Employment continued to trend up in government, health care, social assistance, and construction.This news release presents statistics from two monthly surveys. The household survey measures labor force status, including unemployment, by demographic characteristics.The establishment survey measures nonfarm employment, hours, and earnings by industry.Both the unemployment rate, at 3.6 percent, and the number of unemployed persons, at 6.0 million, changed little in June. The unemployment rate has ranged from 3.4 percent to 3.7 percent since March 2022.Learn more how BLS conducts their surveys here.Stock index futures were initially up when the BLS report came out, came back down, and back up (whipsaw in both directions).Still too early to call how the market will react to the jobs report today; considering the market reacted negatively with yesterday's ADP blowout report which seemed like an over heated economy would force FOMC to raise rates more, but with this report missing expectations, FOMC might keep their scheduled rate increases or even reduce them.edit: BLS report link | 2023-07-24 |

427 | 47 | (7/7) Friday's Pre-Market Stock Movers & News | null | 17 comments | 2023-07-07 | Good Friday morning traders and investors of the r/stocks sub! Welcome to the final trading day of the week. Here are your pre-market movers & news on this Friday, July the 7th, 2023-Stock futures are little changed as investors look toward Friday jobs report: Live updatesStock futures were little changed Friday morning, as investors refocused their attention on the upcoming June jobs report and the implications for the Federal Reserve’s policy stance.Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500 futures were flat. Nasdaq-100 futures slipped by 0.2%. Levi Strauss shares tumbled 7% as the denim giant cut its profit outlook for the year.This week’s main event for economic data looms ahead: the Labor Department’s June payrolls report, which is due Friday morning. Economists polled by Dow Jones anticipate an increase of 240,000 positions, a cooldown from May’s gain of 339,000 jobs.Investors are on high alert for signs that the central bank will tighten policy even further. Traders now forecast a 91% chance the Fed will raise rates at its July meeting, according to the FedWatch tool from CME Group. Policymakers indicated at their June gathering that two more rate hikes could be ahead in 2023.“The Fed is signaling a willingness to keep tightening, but markets aren’t convinced it will happen as much as the Fed projects,” Kathy Jones, chief fixed income strategist for the Schwab Center for Financial Research, wrote in a bond market update. “The gap between the peak rate implied by the dot plot and market expectations has narrowed but hasn’t closed.”The major averages slipped Thursday after data from ADP showed that private sector employers added 497,000 jobs in June. That figure far exceeded the 220,000 estimate from economists polled by Dow Jones.The ADP results spurred worries about the Fed’s next steps. Bond yields spiked during regular trading Thursday, with the rate on the 2-year Treasury — which is most sensitive to the central bank’s policy —touching its highest level since 2007. Stocks also fell, as the 30-stock Dow shed more than 1%. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite slid about 0.8% each.The three major averages are on their way to a losing week. The S&P 500 is off by about 0.9%, while the Nasdaq is on pace for a 0.8% decline. The Dow is the underperformer of the three, tracking for a 1.4% loss.STOCK FUTURES CURRENTLY:(CLICK HERE FOR STOCK FUTURES CHARTS!)YESTERDAY'S MARKET MAP:(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S MARKET MAP!)TODAY'S MARKET MAP:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S MARKET MAP!)YESTERDAY'S S&P SECTORS:(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S S&P SECTORS CHART!)TODAY'S S&P SECTORS:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S S&P SECTORS CHART!)TODAY'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR!)NEXT WEEK'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR NEXT WEEK'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR!)NEXT WEEK'S UPCOMING IPO'S:(CLICK HERE FOR NEXT WEEK'S UPCOMING IPO'S!)NEXT WEEK'S EARNINGS CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR NEXT WEEK'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)(T.B.A. THIS WEEKEND.)THIS MORNING'S PRE-MARKET EARNINGS CALENDAR:(N/A.)(CLICK HERE FOR THIS MORNING'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)EARNINGS RELEASES BEFORE THE OPEN TODAY:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS MORNING'S EARNINGS RELEASES!)THIS AFTERNOON'S AFTER-HOURS EARNINGS CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS AFTERNOON'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)(N/A.)EARNINGS RELEASES AFTER THE CLOSE TODAY:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS AFTERNOON'S EARNINGS RELEASES!)YESTERDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES:(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES LINK #1!)(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES LINK #2!)YESTERDAY'S INSIDER TRADING FILINGS:(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S INSIDER TRADING FILINGS!)TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR LINK #1!)(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR LINK #2!)THIS MORNING'S STOCK NEWS MOVERS:(source: cnbc.com)(TO BE POSTED LATER THIS MORNING.) — (TO BE POSTED LATER THIS MORNING.).STOCK SYMBOL: (TO BE POSTED LATER THIS MORNING.)CLICK HERE FOR CHART!(CLICK HERE FOR LIVE STOCK QUOTE!)DISCUSS!What's on everyone's radar for today's trading day ahead here at r/stocks?I hope you all have an excellent final trading day of this week ahead today on this Friday, July 7th, 2023! :) | 2023-07-24 |
428 | 20 | Zoom $ZM is in trouble | null | 51 comments | 2023-07-07 | I am still in the process of gathering more information and writing the long-form post that I do once a week, but I thought to share some quick insights.I think Zoom ($ZM) is in trouble.Zoom benefited significantly from the pandemic, as the demand for its products surged. The revenue growth in 2020 was 88%, followed by 326% in 2021 and still an impressive 55% in 2022.*Fiscal years ending JanuaryHowever, the pandemic is behind us, and so is Zoom’s growth. During the fiscal year 2023, the revenue was up $293 million (roughly 7%). But this isn’t the bad news. To understand what is actually happening, we need to take a look at the operating expenses, especially one group - Selling & Marketing.The purpose of this expense is self-explanatory.Well, it increased from $1.1 billion to a whopping $1.7 billion in 2023 (from 28% to 39% of revenue).Let me make it clear, Zoom spent $1.7 billion on Selling & Marketing, and increased its top line by less than $300 million!This is the simplified conclusion. The reality is a bit more complex. The $1.7 billion brought a lot more revenue, not only the net increase. What we’re missing in this equation is the revenue that was lost during the year, due to cancellation of the Zoom plans. Although this doesn’t exist as a separate data point, it is quite clear that the management decided to focus on not reporting revenue loss during the year by doubling down on Selling & Marketing.However, this has an impact on its margins.This increased expenditure reduced their operating margin to roughly 6% from 25% in the previous two years.The response that many will have is: “So, all the company needs to do is, reduce the Selling & Marketing expense, and their profitability will go up, right?”Well, profitability, in terms of higher margins, is likely. However, it will come hand in hand with lower revenue.Zoom is not only not a growth company at this moment, but also one where the management needs to decide between keeping its market share and actually delivering returns to the shareholders.The complete analysis including valuation will follow this Sunday. | 2023-07-24 |
429 | 8 | Which industries or stocks would be most affected if the Russia/Ukraine war suddenly ended? | null | 44 comments | 2023-07-07 | Ever since the attempted coup in Russia, the possibility of the war ending is the highest it’s been since Russia first invaded Ukraine. There is no way to know when the war will end, it could be years away, it could be weeks away. No one knows the real answer to when the war will end, probably not even Putin himself. So instead of speculating if/when the war will end, let’s for arguments sake, pretend the war ends next week. What stocks/industries would be most affected? | 2023-07-24 |

Most fundamentals are updated every 3 months due to the fact that corporations release earnings reports every quarter, so traders are always speculating at what those earnings will say, and investors may change the size of their holdings based on those reports. Expect a lot of volatility around earnings, but it usually doesn't matter if you're holding long term, but keep in mind the importance of earnings reports because a trend of declining earnings or a decline in some other fundamental will drive the stock down over the long term as well.

432 | 1.4k | Meta Threads is Missing one important thing Twitter has... PORN!
Company Discussion | null | 444 | 2023-07-06 | Meta stock is already up on pre market because of instagram threads.
i think all the changes twitter is having right now like limiting the number of posts you can watch and other changes are really bad and will probably heavily damage the site.
Threads came exactly in the right time when twitter make all those bad changes that will probably cause many users to leave.
The thing that's missing however is all the xxx rated stuff twitter has.
let's not be hypocrite here and be honest.many people watch this type of entertainment -
The Porn Industry is a 97 billion worth industry.
This a major disadvantage for threads and while it is great we're getting an alternative it won't be the same because Twitter doesn't have censorship on xxx rated materiel while Threads does have censorship.
i think threads still have potential to be successful but the censorship might limit the potential success. | 2023-07-24 |

435 | 0 | Never loosing indicators(?) | null | 30 | 2023-07-08 | Hi redditors,
I have a stupid question with a standard obvious text-book answer goes like "are you dumb?." But I am curious anyway about your creative ways of saying it.
I have a friend who I know for a long time and he is interested in stock market for the past few years. He is looking for indicators and trying to apply them to different indicies, shares, CFDs etc. Recently his claim was that he found never loosing indicators. His argument is that those indicators work with 5mins intervals on some assets and 1 hour in some others. They involve having put and call options depending on what indicators signal with the current market value, volume trend etc.
He makes all the hyper-parameter optimization using past data and further proposes that, in 1 to 2 year time windows, he could have made 40%, 50% and even 100% net profits using these indicators including comissions etc. When we ask why there is that much gain but absolutely no risks, his argument is okey in the long run if not making 50% 100% profit then 25% 30% is still free money that one should get.
I am a novice trader who is learning and enjoying it and consider it as securing my today savings' purchasing power for the future. Besides I have my day job and I find it too stressful to make high frequency trades. Even in slow pace, I think it is sometimes stressful. All things put asside, when I check public funds managed by pros and their performances, they don't make 50% 100% net profits every year. If this is something that obvious such that one guy realize at home looking at the graphs, then why not everybody is making this as their only job? Paradoxically, if everybody applies the same and simple tactic, then no one could have won. Anyway...
What would you guys tell your friends, if you were in my shoes? | 2023-07-24 |

437 | 93 | How are we feeling about Intel?
Company Question | null | 173 | 2023-07-06 | I bought Intel earlier last month because I felt like the company was undervalued. It is America's Semiconductor and shows a lot of potential with the Ai-chip making industry. I am, however, aware that the company financials over the past 4 quarters haven't really been the best. I am curious as to what other investors think because I heard a lot about NVDA and AMD, but I think this could be a diamond in the ruff. Thoughts?

438 | 3 | Investing in MJ? | null | 13 comments | 2023-07-07 | I'm pretty new to investing and so haven't really diversified my portfolio so far. I've mostly invested in NU bank, which has made an incredible comeback over the last few months. I've been interested in investing in marijuana stocks for a while, but noticed they've been plummeting, and for whatever reason Canopy Growth has been doing awfully as well.I'm curious whether there's even any point in investing in weed. I get the impression there was a lot of optimism about it a while back, but even though legalization has been spreading across the US, weed stocks haven't been doing well anyway. I was considering investing a couple of grand into MJ while it's down, but I have a feeling it will drop even lower. Thoughts? | 2023-07-24 |

449 | 23 | ETF Question | null | 9 comments | 2023-07-06 | Are the price of ETFs driven only by the value of their underlying holdings, or are they also subject to demand?Put another way, say you have two ETFs. The ETFs are exactly the same (underlying holdings, expense ratios, anything else you can think of). The single difference between the two is that the first is very well known (discussed on all the forums, talked about it the media). The second ETF is less well known and is not on top of people's minds to the same degree.Could a higher demand for ETF #1 cause that ETF to trade at a higher value than ETF #2, everything else being equal?Or is it that buying either one of the ETFs puts demand on the underlying holdings, raising their value, which would simultaneously raise both ETFs' value. | 2023-07-24 |

The execution of the restructuring program communicated on June 13, 2023 goes according to plan. The company hereby reiterates its full year Adjusted EBIT forecast of SEK 7-9 billion." ($638-821 million)Embracer clarified that it preferred a share issue rather than a rights issue as the latter "in the current market would entail a risk that the company cannot provide for its capital needs while maintaining its desired optimal capital structure."A rights issue would also expose the company to a risk of "a significant depressed share price," Embracer added, saying that a share issue was "the most suitable alternative."Wingefors said: "The strong support from both existing and new investors in this share issue proves a firm belief in Embracer Group’s strategy to become a stronger company by unleashing the significant untapped potential in the group."While the restructuring program is developing according to plan, the proceeds from this share issue will further strengthen our financial position, improving both financing cost and our operational flexibility, and enabling us to focus on the key aspects of the program. Ultimately, this will empower our entrepreneurs and creators to continue to deliver outstanding and memorable experiences to gamers and fans across the globe."Embracer announced a restructuring program mid-June as its debt reached SEK 15.6 billion ($1.45 billion) as of March 31, 2023.The program led to leadership changes, with Saber CEO Matthew Karch resigning to become the firm's COO, and Crystal Dynamics' Phil Rogers named chief strategy officer.In its financial results for FY2022-23, Embracer's sales were up 79% year-on-year but Wingefors described the 12-month period as "challenging" as a $2 billion deal collapsed due to "external factors."Last week, SJN Insight's Sam Naji reflected on the group's restructure announcement, and pondered whether the IP Embracer owns can fortify its future.https://www.gamesindustry.biz/embracer-raises-182-million-via-share-issue | 2023-07-24 |

I was thinking in selling 60k of those to buy SGOV once i'm in the green instead, as its paying 5% annually. My idea is to have more of my assets as "liquid cash" ready to use that at least is getting a nice 5%, instead of having nearly all my assets into VTI which was invested as a lump sum at the worst possible time with the potential of crashing again in the near future.

460 | 705 | Congressional Insider Trading in 2022: Using Inside Knowledge to Make Profits
Industry Discussion | null | 159 | 2023-07-05 | Throughout 2022, there were a number of instances of very well timed trades among members of Congress. Let's examine a few examples.
In February, Marjorie Taylor Greene, a House Republican, bought stocks in Lockheed Martin, Chevron, and NextEra Energy. Mere days later, the Ukraine conflict escalated. Other politicians followed suit, buying up oil and defense stocks before the Ukraine invasion.
In July, Nancy and Paul Pelosi sold all their Nvidia stock. By August, Nvidia was instructed by the US to limit chip sales in China and Russia, causing the stock to drop 20%. When questioned about the timing of her sale, Pelosi remained silent.
Senator Thomas Carper bought bearish ETFs before significant rate hikes and CPI data from the federal reserve. Interestingly, he sits on the Senate Finance Committee, and his positions have profited.
Congress members also heavily invested in semiconductors prior to the passing of the CHIPS bill and restrictions in China. This led to significant gains for them in 2023.
Dan Crenshaw was questioned about his stock trades, including a sale in February that brought him a 32% return. In response, he implied that trading was a way for Congress members to better themselves.
In 2022, both Pat Fallon and Tom Suozzi faced STOCK Act violations for late disclosures of trades worth hundreds of thousands, but the House Ethics Committee dismissed their cases, citing lack of clear evidence of intentional non-disclosure. Both Fallon and Suozzi continued to make late disclosures of trades throughout the year. | 2023-07-24 |

462 | 2 | What Bell or Communication company will gain the most? | null | 0 | 2023-07-06 | In 1996 then President Bill Clinton signed into law The Telecommunications Act of 1996. This law eventually paved the way for the creation of CLECs. CLECs force fair competition. Around 12-13 years ago Comcast was allowed to enter the market with no regulations, causing a major ripple effect in business class Voice and data. My only opinion on that is they are a good Cable company. In the past year the Telco provides, aka the LECs, such as ATT, Lumen, Verizon have been granted authority by the FCC to abandon prior agreements to minimize work on the copper infrastructure and to force the hands to move to Fiber in questionable areas. As someone that is on the CLEC side of this I can only express dissatisfaction in how this was handled. Carriers have opted to charge 200-700% more than they did prior to fit each copper facility and of course as a provider one must pass the increase along. In all I feel this is more a rant but also curious to know how the business minded people see this and if anyone follows Telecom stock who will gain the most from this? | 2023-07-24 |

Residential real estate is better, but definitely not a hot market either with such high interest rates.
But why are commercial real estate stocks like $CBRE, $XLRE, $BX doing fine? What stocks should I look to short if I’m bearish on CRE? | 2023-07-24 |
465 | 45 | Sometimes the best thing to do is set it, forget it ... even if a recession is possibly near
Advice | null | 14 | 2023-07-05 | So I wanted to share a quick thought. I am a 30 yo investor and also am a trader. I have different brokerage accounts set up for different things. Brokerage account A is for my long term investing (just in VOO and QQQM). I throw $300 into it every paycheck and have for years. This is my set it an forget it account. This account will someday be almost for sure worth a lot more than it is. Brokerage account B is for trading and I like to swing trade (I never day trade). I will wait for extremes in the market (i.e. in March 2020 I bought up Wayfair and Amazon stocks due to the lockdowns and people buying from home being the norm for awhile).
I have a Brokerage account C that is only dividend paying ETFs but I am not going to talk about that account right now on here. I opened up both brokerage accounts A and B in 2017 when I began to have throw money available. An almost down to the dollar amount has been added to both brokerage accounts. Are you ready for the rate of return comparison? Before I give it I want to say a few things: Brokerage account A took me less than 2 hours of research to decide which 2 ETFs to throw my money in. This is again just investing in 2 ETFs (VOO and QQQM). I click "market" and then "buy" and I purchase as much of these 2 ETFs equally as quickly as I can when I get a paycheck and have money left over. This takes no time at all. Brokerage account B has probably taken me hundreds of hours of research, I have lost sleep (both because of having really good days and really bad days - like when I bought NIO 16 months ago).
Rate of return of brokerage account A since 2017 (average year over year return): 6.1%
Rate of return of brokerage account B since 2017 (average year over year return): 6.2%
That is it. All of the hundreds of hours of starting at Finviz screens. All of the times of comparing a stock to another stocks PE, forward PE, company debt, etc etc has yielded me a 0.1% difference to the upside. If I could go back in time I would have been better off just throwing money into brokerage account A. One of the reasons I have not done better in account B is because there are many talking heads out there who swore we would be in a recession, akin to 2008 (25% - 30% down from all time highs). It reminds me of the many talking heads in 2010, then in 2011, then in 2012, then again in 2013 who swore we would have a double dip recession and that the rally in 2009-2010 was inflated. Well that was not true - a person would have been better off just investing in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, etc in an ETF and not trying to gamble with which company will do good and which will not.

466 | 8 | What is the difference between the multiple listings for this company (Vulcan Energy Resources)?
Company Question | null | 4 | 2023-07-06 | Disclosure: I do not hold stock in this company but I would like to.
Here is a screenshot of what I mean.
I'm interested in investing in this company, specifically due to their extraction project in Germany, but I'm unsure of the best/correct way how to do it, as in which of these to buy into.
They all seem to represent the same company, and are clearly listed on different exchanges, but they are valued differently and they don't gain/lose value equally.
How can I understand this better?
Thanks for your help. | 2023-07-24 |

470 | 3 | Is it too late to invest in Meta? How do people gage when it's too late? | null | 43 comments | 2023-07-06 | I'm looking into a few different companies to invest in. I noticed the continuous rise in META and I'm wondering if it's too late to make a Stock investment. If it is too late, how can i determine if it's too late myself, for other stocks? I'd presume company position matters, Meta is pooping out tons of new products and announcements which I presume is what's contributing to this continues rise, but from using Graph knowledge alone, is it possible to roughly estimate the max a Stock will hit? I'm not planning on doing day-trading, just setting up accounts for the future. Thanks for any help.Also relatively new to Trading so if anyone fancies berating me, feel free 😂 I'd love the extra knowledge. | 2023-07-24 |
471 | 11 | Fintech/Digital Banks Rising in the Checking Account War. | null | 6 comments | 2023-07-06 | Does this trend change the mind of an investor to lean on the side of Fintech Banks vs Traditional Banks? Which side would you invest more in and why?A recent study by Cornerstone Advisors showed the increasing trend of Americans opening Fintech checking accounts:In the first half of 2023, Fintech/Digital Banks captured nearly half (47%) of all new checking accounts.Fintech/Digital Banks' growth is coming at the expense of large banks.Chime and PayPal represent 20% of all new checking accounts opened in 2023.In the first half of 2023, SoFi’s market share quadrupled to 4% from 1% in 2020 while Wells Fargo’s share dropped by more than a half to 3.5%.Young Americans dominate new checking accounts opening in 2023 with 72% being Gen Zers or MillennialsThe article continues by emphasizing the trend of more percentage of Americans opening new checking accounts. Megabanks may not feel the pain as they have more affluent consumers and many may have more than one checking account. However, the article goes further and stated that megabanks should feel the pain because the percentage of consumers using them as their primary checking account provider is on a decline. This declining trend spreads to regional banks, community banks, and credit unions as they all are losing their share of being Americans' primary banking providers.Apparently, more than a third of Gen Z and Millennials, and nearly thirty percent of Gen X consider Fintech/Digital Bank as their primary checking account provider. The reasons for this Fintech/digital trend are:Young consumers pay with many available digital methods.Fintech/Digital Banks offer a multitude of products within their "checking account."The Fintech/Digital Banks often offer more metrics to measure financial health and performance.The percentage of assets spent on marketing is much higher by the Fintech/Digital Banks for brand awareness.https://www.forbes.com/sites/ronshevlin/2023/07/05/the-checking-account-war-is-over-and-the-fintechs-have-won/?sh=46916b2e3a31 | 2023-07-24 |

477 | 3 | (7/6) Thursday's Pre-Market Stock Movers & News | null | 1 comment | 2023-07-06 | Good morning traders and investors of the r/stocks sub! Welcome to the new trading day and a fresh start! Here are your pre-market stock movers & news on this Thursday, July the 6th, 2023-Stock futures fall Thursday as traders assess Fed rate outlook: Live updateU.S. stock futures fell Wednesday as Wall Street resumed a holiday-shortened week and awaited Federal Reserve meeting minutes coming in the afternoon.Stock futures fell Thursday following a losing session on Wall Street, as traders continued to weigh the outlook for Federal Reserve monetary policy.Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 153 points, or 0.4%. S&P 500 futures fell 0.4% along with Nasdaq-100 futures.JetBlue Airways slipped 1.2% in the premarket after the company announced it would end its partnership in the northeast U.S. with American Airlines to focus on Spirit Airlines. American shares moved 1.6% lower, while Spirit added 2.9%.The shortened trading week resumed Wednesday after a break for the Fourth of July holiday. The major indexes logged modest losses. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 129.83 points, or 0.38%, while the S&P 500 dipped 0.2%. Both indexes snapped three-day win streaks. The Nasdaq Composite finished 0.18% lower.Wall Street also combed through minutes from June’s Federal Reserve policy meeting, where members opted to skip a hike. The latest findings showed that most officials would support more increases ahead.As of late Wednesday, traders are pricing in a nearly 89% chance of a hike at the central bank’s meeting this month, according to CME Group’s FedWatch tool.“Fed chair Powell has made it clear that he is absolutely committed to seeing this 2% target reached, and so, I think it pretty much means that it’s a when, not an if, as far as additional hikes are concerned later this year,” CIC Wealth’s Malcolm Ethridge said on CNBC’s “Closing Bell.”He said he expects two more hikes from the Fed this year, likely in the third quarter. Ethridge, executive vice president at CIC Wealth, also noted that while inflation’s showing signs of cooling it will take time to reach the 2% target.“No matter which side you fall on, we can all sort of agree that not enough has meaningfully broken to this point that would signal that they’re going to back off of the gas pedal and allow us to coast from here,” he added.Given this setup, investors aggressively positioned in this market for their time horizon or risk appetite may want to use periods of strength to take profits, he said.The shortened trading week continues Thursday with a slew of fresh economic data points, including ADP private payrolls data for June and initial jobless claims. A reading of S&P Global services PMI and ISM services PMI are also on deck.STOCK FUTURES CURRENTLY:(CLICK HERE FOR STOCK FUTURES CHARTS!)YESTERDAY'S MARKET MAP:(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S MARKET MAP!)TODAY'S MARKET MAP:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S MARKET MAP!)YESTERDAY'S S&P SECTORS:(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S S&P SECTORS CHART!)TODAY'S S&P SECTORS:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S S&P SECTORS CHART!)TODAY'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR LINK #1!)(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR LINK #2!)THIS WEEK'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS WEEK'S ECONOMIC CALENDAR!)THIS WEEK'S UPCOMING IPO'S:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS WEEK'S UPCOMING IPO'S!)THIS WEEK'S EARNINGS CALENDAR:($LEVI $SLP $KRUS $IPA (and $AZZ after the close on Friday))(CLICK HERE FOR THIS WEEK'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)THIS MORNING'S PRE-MARKET EARNINGS CALENDAR:(N/A)(CLICK HERE FOR THIS MORNING'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)EARNINGS RELEASES BEFORE THE OPEN TODAY:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS MORNING'S EARNINGS RELEASES!)THIS AFTERNOON'S AFTER-HOURS EARNINGS CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS AFTERNOON'S EARNINGS CALENDAR!)(N/A.)EARNINGS RELEASES AFTER THE CLOSE TODAY:(CLICK HERE FOR THIS AFTERNOON'S EARNINGS RELEASES!)YESTERDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES:(CLICK HERE FOR FRIDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES LINK #1!)(CLICK HERE FOR FRIDAY'S ANALYST UPGRADES/DOWNGRADES LINK #2!)YESTERDAY'S INSIDER TRADING FILINGS:(CLICK HERE FOR YESTERDAY'S INSIDER TRADING FILINGS!)TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR:(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR LINK #1!)(CLICK HERE FOR TODAY'S DIVIDEND CALENDAR LINK #2!)THIS MORNING'S STOCK NEWS MOVERS:(source: cnbc.com)(TO BE POSTED LATER THIS MORNING.)(TO BE POSTED LATER THIS MORNING.) — (TO BE POSTED LATER THIS MORNING.).STOCK SYMBOL: (TO BE POSTED LATER THIS MORNING.)CLICK HERE FOR CHART!(CLICK HERE FOR LIVE STOCK QUOTE!)FULL DISCLOSURE:/u/bigbear0083 has no positions in any stocks mentioned.
