>European auto stocks extended losses on Tuesday after a German magazine reported that U.S. President Donald Trump could impose tariffs on imported cars from next week.

>Wirtschaftswoche cited EU sources as saying a U.S. Department of Commerce investigation report was on Trump’s desk, adding: “Trump will possibly decide on tariffs as early as next week after the G20 meeting in Buenos Aires.”

>It cited the sources as saying the report recommended a 25 percent customs duty on car imports from all countries except Canada and Mexico.

Depression is here to stay

>+0.25% today
I'll take it.

They're getting depressed, wait a minute did I just miss the fucking bottom? GODDAMN IT!!!

Wait that's not depression, that's desperation, we got another 5% to drop.

Another losing day.

>>11925139
>we got another 5% to drop.

Nah.

>>11924976
lol. My afternoon would be incomplete without you, anon.

Bulls just stampeded into the office. knocking over a few computers in the process
should only be 15 more minutes

>>11925149

Also, if you take a look see at the S&P chart, note that all the significant lows since February are higher than the one previous. February low < April < May < October < November.

Bezobots and time warp will become a reality soon

What is up with HBI? Why is it so far off from its all time high a couple years ago?
High was around $35. It's currently around $15.
>>11925176
Where do I get a duck like that?

From what I can see Amazon has a major bubble from people thinking they can expand into other countries. The issues they've been having lately seem to be a shaking of the confidence. So let's go over which countries are worth expanding into. The EU zone, China, Korea, Japan, Canada and maybe Mexico. Everywhere else wouldn't make the money the investment would require or are opposed to the USA and would have that hurt them. China and the EU won't let them in, the small Asian countries can have a more efficient version built inside though maybe Amazon can buy them up. That leave the cartel state and Canada. So how can I hurry this along and what's the best way to bet? Long term and gain off the volatility spike? Repeat short term puts?

>>11925016
>Except canada and mexico
Cant hurt the big 3 in these tarrifs now can we goys

still neutral closing

if you're long term "investors" you could in theory start buying spx at these levels there is not much that can go wrong. all other markets are total basket case and bonds market is not a threat either. some local (vancouver, australia) real real estate bubbles are exposed too now as billions of worth pump and dump schemes by chinese lol

surprisingly it was same chinese who started bitcoin rally

>>11925468
>He's a long term investor.

i feel like all my questions are newfag brainlet ones.
how do you know what to invest in and why? i have no clue where to even start reasoning about this.

>>11925602
My criteria are as follows:
>Does it have a female CEO?
>Does it have a CEO with the last name Culp?
>Is it named SPY?
A yes to any of the above results in a possible shorting of stock.

>>11925602
I consult the palantír

>>11925602
Just buy ALB right now and sell it when it his $103 in a few weeks.

>>11925602
It starts with creating your expectations for where the economy is going. Once you study the economic situation well enough, come up with a list of plausible scenarios. Figure out which companies would benefit in each scenario and invest accordingly.

>>11925602
Don't listen to that communist faggot, just buy ALB and when some one asks you why you just tell them that some dude on an image board dedicated to pornography and alt right politics told you to do it.

So frends I'm thinking about selling my stocks (when break even) and just putting all in my World Index Fund. (BE6295950685)

Ding ding ding! How did everyone do today? I’m up .05%. Didn’t make any trades today, the waters weren’t right so I just sat on my hands

me just had crazy fervor dream with LCIguy in it

WHERE IS LCIGUY

>>11925733
+0.84% today. Weak gains, red week still hasn't come and SPY spreads are eating into me.
>>11925735
He's dead, Jim.

>FOMO'd into ASNS at close

>>11925766
;_; what happened 2 LCIguy?
we were supposed for have tripfag showdown like in me dream

is that why me am draming about him? he is talking me in his ghost form?

>>11925733
+7% today. Having an amazing week. Friendly reminder that if you are not exclusively playing credit spreads and/or selling any rally, you will get your bum spanked in this current market meta.

>>11925733
Up 1.6%. I'll definitely be selling cracker barrel soon before the highs of the earnings report wear off. I think I'll make a clean 25% on that one.

>>11925733
down $16

placed a messed up order because am delirious and fevered then decided it better me no touch money rest of day

>>11925708
See this? We're not even at the "I guess the markets just aren't for me" phase yet. We got more to drop before it's time for ultimate profit potential.

>>11925826
The problem is I almost bought every stock I own at their ATH.

>>11925733
Down 4%. Still holding, have no intention of selling.

>>11925855
keep watching your porfolio then

and when you start crying with your finger on sell button, thats when you buy more

>>11925733
Down on X but I’ll break even with the puts I placed today.

>>11925883
You shouldn't just base your investments on price charts, you should understand what's driving price changes too. If your investment is crashing because the company's business model is bust, it is a good idea to cut your losses.

>>11925904
in a correction / bear market thats 100% arbitrary and your stocks gonna go down regardless of fundamentals

during recovery it will go up regardless of fundamentals too

>>11925904
the only thing that ultimately matters is the fundamentals
if they haven't changed, then there's no reason to sell

Thanks to the anon on the SBLK tip

>>11925917
This isn't necessarily true, not all companies track the indexes and broader economy, especially not smallcaps. It's important to pay attention to what's going on at a given company too, or else you can get caught off guard.

What you want me to post a picture and talk about my ruptured hemorrhoids? The fact remains the fundamentals can stay unchanged but if demand falls for your security so too will your price. When somethings over valued you just fucking sell high.

they're good fundamentally, the only issue they have in that regard is the whole mineral oil controversy, which seems like manufactured FUD to me
biotech is an extremely volatile sector, the winning strategy is to just hold in the long term if you're confident in a company's fundamentals
if you aren't, then you shouldn't have bought in the first place unless you were just looking for a quick day trade/swing trade

that is true in terms of general hygiene, since girls generally place more weight on how they look and are perceived by others in terms of superficial outward impressions
your preference about which sex's smells you're attracted to is also influenced by how your brain neurologically reacts to the pheromones in their sweat (which is determined by your sexual orientation, which is determined by the structure of your brain)

Spongebob was in fact designed on a temporal leyline initiated by unknown agents approx. 2 years from this date. Spongebob was/is intended as the depiction of symbolic "manchild" purgatory intended to complement the effects of pheromone bombs detonated 1996, 1999, 2007, 2013 in the continental US. The Mandela shift occurred in 2012 to create memories for the show. Bikini Bottom represent the Waters ?, the quantum-fluidity of the Godhead of which life is only a self-particularization. Spongebob's arrested development is fed and nourished by this environment, on (alchemical) dry land his cartoon world shrivels into the Real. His character was specifically designed to prefigure your modern "basedboys".

Where the universe emerged out of an infinite ocean of energy, this ocean is not without its ontological predators: syntaxes that exist to devour the fundamental laws of other universes and absorb them into their own.
Example: qlippoth-4 pataphysical model "Spongebob is a Lie". Spongebob believed to be the cartoonishly caricaturized manifestation of a 0 shark. This being is not a being proper, but a whole reality, of which Bikini Bottom is an extremely sanitized depiction. Meme: [High Pitched Demonic Screeching] appears to manifestation of designation: 0 Patrick within 10 - 20 veils of its true form.

>have only about £35 until payday, 8 days away
>asking for more money from parents would be unthinkable because I've done it multiple times before and they'd freak

I have three days worth of food in the house, maybe a bit more. £26 k is a cuck wage in London. I spend all my money on junk food and coffee due to being in such an awful mood. I hate seeing attractive women everywhere who see me as a disgusting non Chad. Everyday I tell myself I'll have no more junk food or coffee then my spirit is crushed by my environment lack of satisfaction from life.

I wish I could give up coffee because it ruins my sleep and gym gains. Only dyels say coffee doesn't hurt sleep. I can function with ruined sleep but have no chance of being strong in the gym. I am a loser with weak willpower. My only hobby is drinking coffee in public to feel less alone, browsing 4chan, and feeling sad about life.

I think I am book smart but I am already 26 and with zero social experiences since I was 18. I've never been to a pub or club. I hated my. boring stem degree I've had no friends since 18, no female attention ever. How can I sit in my flat learning programming or something useful when my youth is passing before my eyes? And I'm being really fucking generous when I call being 26 youth.

Everything feels like work. I'm reading brothers Karamazov just to say I have. It's boring shit that pseudo intellectuals praise. Every single activity descends in to drudgery.

Acting normal isn't an option when you're ugly, normies will never accept you. I waste all my money on junk food and coffee. Societal propaganda is awful yet "classic" books are zero escape, just more drudgery that you are told to do.

I think at this point all normies have a superiority complex over me. Everyone else's life consists of easily joining institutions filled with normies like them, being judged by normies like them, doing things that normies enjoy.

stop buying junk food litearlly just buy beans and rice for now to survive. look up keto diet and follow taht to lose any excess weight you have, buy meat on sale, use your freezer.

nothing about you is attractive right now its true, but all the things that matter you can change yourself, if you truly want to

>be me
>be 27 year old ugly beta loser nofriends autist with no friends or social experiences since school, no female attention ever; have never been to a pub, club, or party; have no passions

Life is going by so fast and I waste it all. I waste a lot of time on the internet but if you read the below, you will know why. It's like I view everything as a chore that needs to be avoided through procrastination.

I got bored of a history book I was reading and gave up on it. I abhor the modern humanitard mentality. If you want to know what it is, imagine an upper middle class person who says (honestly or not) Pynchon is funny and who reads the New Yorker. He is a pseudointellectual that claims his philosophising and literary interests are due to a love of knowledge but he knows nothing about STEM or anything practical or anything not marketed by a major publishing company or university. That's as succinctly as I can put it. The humanitard mentality is the prism that 99 % of all media is refracted through.

I don't have productive interests. There are just things I feel like I need to do to stop the pseudointellectuals coming after me (going through SICP, reading boring old books). I feel guilty for everything I do, don't do, and how I do it. I feel like I have to be more efficient in how I do things.

I have a full time job that requires no work and about 10 minutes per day at the office (plus commute) but I am still unhappy. I am insanely lazy and when I worked from 9 to 5 I saw my life as over. It was soul crushing.

Being an ugly autist without a posh accent is a career death sentence. I don't know how I will ever bother putting effort in to things, especially when I know Chads and women get everything handed to them. I see decades of boring work ahead of me.
My only pleasures in life are junk food, coffee, and McDonalds. My main hobby, apart from wasting time on the internet, is walking around London and hoping my 20s spontaneously stop feeling wasted

Why is it so forbidden to say: 20 % of men get 80 % of women; women live lives on easy mode; literary theory and almost all humanities "scholars" are bullshit; old classics can be boring and are not all stunningly genius works of incredible philosophical genius; all the religion / atheism posturing is fashion statement nonsense (with the most insufferable of all being lit and it's "I'm not religious but I want to sprinkle religionshit over everything because it has been associated with literary and cultured people in the past" attitude); the current "gatekeepers" in literature are horrendous leftists; that people only praise old books so hard to fit in?

Goddamnit. GW Pharma missed earnings. They lost less than expected but came up short on revenue. Shitty deal considering they're likely to start raking it in off Epidiolex sales in coming year. My stop is set just below the long term trend. After hours trading dropped below that briefly so i'm not sure if it'll open above my stop or no. Thankfully this was a small trade for me anyway, loss won't be much relative to total portfolio if i do get stopped out.

the thing is with dude weed financials is that even with a bunch of states jumping on the bandwagon it’s still going to be another year before you can even begin to buy it anywhere because they still need to hammer out how they’re going to regulate and tax it before they license anyone to start selling it.

Trump is trying to threaten Powell to dissuade upcoming hikes:

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/11/27/trump-attacks-fed-chair-powell-im-not-even-a-little-bit-happy-with-my-selection-of-jay.html

I think if Powell goes ahead with hikes he's finished at this point. SPY to 300 is a safe bet after Powell is fired and trade deal with China is finalized during G20. Sad thing is Powell is actually doing a good job and is just trying to stop America economy from imploding. Too bad he's about to be cucked by politics.

>>11926897
Right on. Thanks for the info mate.

>>11927163
doubt it but I sorely hope so fampai

>>11927163
I do think Powell has a point about higher interest rates being a necessary evil to avoid a larger crash in the long run
I don't think he deserves all the hate he gets, honestly
He's just trying to do what he believes is best for the country, even though he knows it'll be unpopular

>>11927190
Yeah, the more I read about it the more bad I feel for Powell.

"I'm doing deals and I'm not being accommodated by the Fed," Trump told the Post. "They're making a mistake because I have a gut and my gut tells me more sometimes than anybody else's brain can ever tell me."

>Using your gut instead of your brain
>People actually elected this moron

Feels bad man.

The news just keeps getting worse for GE. I'm shocked the stock isn't at $5 yet. Plz fall you bastard! I got the dough, just waiting to strike at the 5 mark.

>>11927208
Powell is right about rates because they shouldnt have ever gotten as low as what they did, but trump knows that with the rising rates the house of cards will fall, and hell get the blame, then some socialist hack will come in and drop rates anyway.

>>11927290
Hmm. I had thought home appliances was also a huge part of GE's current plan.

why is Trump cucking Powell and GM SO HARD today

literally all he did all day was yell out 'FUCK GM LMAO NERDS"

>>11927319
Used to be; they sold that unit to some china/jap company not long ago. They get to use the GE logo/name for several years as part of the deal

Is this the bottom for tech or should I wait some more

>>11927343
Funny though, health care is a big money maker and is one part of GE that is actually bringing in the profit. Yet under the current plan GE Healthcare is gonna be spun off and be it's own company. You'd think that the "dead" parts would be first on the chopping block but what do I know?

>>11927342
Because GM and Powell and cucking Orange Man
Drumpf got into office and declared a renascence of mid western industrial manufacturing, and now GM is just shitting in his face li\ke lmao
Powell doesn't give a fuck about Drumpf either
He's cucked by outside forces

>>11927428
>and now GM is just shitting in his face li\ke lmao

Isn't part of why GM is shitting the bed the increased steel prices from Trump's tariffs?

>>11927450

I remember hearing about them selling off their lighting (lightbulbs) division recently.
Seems odd that GE would sell that off considering the history they have involved with its invention.

>>11927342
optics. Trump is concerned that because he’s been living by the stock market he’ll now die by the stock market. Whether or not that’s actually true will depend on how much people will buy that it’s all “part of the plan” and the economy is actually doing fine, or whether or not his core supporters even really give a shit about the stock market as long as it doesnt mean they’re getting laid off. But he has nothing to lose by trying to say that if you have any problems about the economy, basically it’s not my fault it’s powells.

one of the smg threads yesterday had papa johns as the op image.
yikes.

>>11927521
i dont understand why after a century we cant avoid recessions

why are we unable to balance interest rates and stock growth to be bullish full time

why do we PANIC and drop rates to like -2% after the markets crash, then take forever to pump them back up when we are at all time highs, which then crashes it again

like just stay chill bros, stop overreacting back and forth every single time, theres no need to have any recessions

>>11927190
>>11927208
>>11927301
Powell is doing what is necessary to perpetuate capitalism, as were his predecessors who lowered rates and did quantitative easing. Trump represents the unbridled desire of the national capitalist. The capitalist distastes the competition that lowers his profits, he loves easy money, and will play whatever sentiments his customers want, he has no true ethical content, not even egoism, since he values his image and profits above even himself. Thus, he represents the biggest threats to the foundations of capitalism.

Prob next year I'm gonna add VOO, Comcast and Uber to my holdings as well as increase my MS, KO and WMT positions. Gonna also keep an eye on Armin. So far signs are all lit up saying "Profit" but if things turn nasty I may have to bail on it.

>>11927557
I know people who worked in banking regulation during the crisis. At it's height, liquidity was completely frozen. If the government did nothing it would have meant the actual collapse of the international finance system. This is why the government guaranteed certain debt to get the markets working again, and it's also why they lowered rates, because if they hadn't I doubt banks would have been able to lend at all.

He's just bullying Powell into slowing down. Which is fine.

>>11927619
i guess my question is more WHY was this even necessary? Was literally nobody at any level of government or top level banking suits paying attention in any way as to what would happen?

Why are the government level moves not more anticipatory basically is my question

>>11927657
Probably because this shit is complicated, mate. I'm sure if anybody knew how to anticipate what you're proposing then we would do it.

>>11927675
this response seems at odds with how everybody else in this thread spams BOGS ARE CONTROLLING EVERYTHING, THEY KNOW

not saying your wrong but everybody else seems to think they can predict recessions is guaranteed coming and (((they))) are controlling everything, well why would you create a collapse like 08 on purpose lmao

>>11927657
This is why gold is the only real money

>>11927657
People thought a crisis of that magnitude was impossible. There was very little understanding of how deep the sub-prime mortgage crisis went. Most models put the lowest housing prices could go at great depression levels. I think that was surpassed. Most of the regulators, anyway, were bought off or simply would not have access to the kind of information necessary to know what was going on, and the banks weren't going to look into either because people just assumed that people generally would make sure they made their mortgage. Banks also learned to buy their own bullshit, duping themselves into thinking that whatever complicated debt instrument they cooked up actually reduced risk somehow.

This same kind of arrogance persists now, especially in the Trump administration.

are you implying that we will over time have smaller and shorter recessions/depressions? I get that feeling too, looking at charts they provide the same data, over time volatilty is lowering even though we still have -40% situations on occasion

>>11928311
They do have a very good dividend, but it pays out in about February which is too close to a potential downturn for my comfort. Also, the stock just rocketed due to the earnings report today, and I don't think it'll get much better than this as a result.

i think the market will teach them in time

>>11928847
You're a new tripfag with 2 of your biggest known holdings in biotech/pharma... both of which tanked another 5% and 3% today. I think the market is going to break your bones, man.

Surprisingly not enough braps in this thread.

>>11928877
I've been posting on here as an anon for a lot longer than I've been tripfagging, though
I'm confident in the long term viability of my picks, and I won't hide the fact that I'm not doing well in the short term for the sake of my "reputation"
My portfolio may not look good now, but my positions will pay off in time
No matter what happens in the short term, I have faith in science supporting the drugs the companies are making, and I won't sell until that changes

>>11928847
First stock I bought was HMHC, almost immediately lost 17%. I held my nerves and waited for several months for it to come back up, I still made about 40 bucks on that. Similar situation with Denny's. I might have missed out on some bigger gains if I held on longer with HMHC but I was about sick of the volatility.

>>11928912
You can be confident all you want, but I don't need science to know that you've lost 8% of your position in today alone. I do hope your picks pay you many times over in the long run, but don't get burned like a jackass.

Ew, I've seen more ass on chloe moretz.

>>11928943
>>11928944
I can handle short term volatility, and I don't invest money I can't afford to lose
The potential for upside in these companies is enough for me to look past the short term volatility
Also, I'm down 4% today, not 8%

I mostly use it to fact check people's claims and see what people have said about a given ticker before (not to make any decisions, of course, but just out of curiosity)

Deans Foods VS GoPro vs LCI

>>11929373
>>11929288
This is the price it closed at on June 26th, of course, so it likely wasn't this exact price, but it was somewhere near this area

>>11929359
thats so dependent on your own trading style and risk tolerance my dude.

that being said, there is always a slight drop after the exdividend date.

>>11929359
most stocks dip right after their exdiv, it's usually smarter to buy after the exdiv as a result, assuming it's a good company of course and won't continue to fall. Of course, this doesn't always happen and isn't ever a guarantee, but it's a good rule of thumb.

Now, I am new to dividends, but does the price of a stock change after a dividend is paid out?
Or, is that from people selling after getting their dividends?

i just want it to happen already so i can buy in bigly. why hasn't it dropped below $7 yet.

>>11929440
The price of the stock don't got shit to do with the div. The div is decided by the ceo/board/whoever calls the shots at the company. The stock could have a price of $20 but pay out a 0.50 div per quarter (2 per year). The opposite is true as well, stock could be selling at $100 per but pay a shit 0.20 div. But the reason that stock is selling for 100 is due the company making profit out the ass so investors are happy/pumping up the stock. Look at Amazon, high as fuck but no div. Yet people still buy it cause they know that share price will climb and climb till one day Amazon goes the fate of GE.

>>11929708
>>2 quarters a year

what did he mean by this?

>>11929723
$2

>>11929669
no they not kek
SEC basically only picks on little guys who made too much money one year

"insider trader" is BULLPOOP, they can and DO call anything inside trading, its infuriating looking at insider trading case history

>>11929684
the base pay is competitive within the industry. stock bonuses are just that, bonuses.

its actually what got me into the market in the first place. my company just started throwing stock at me and i had to start managing it.

>>11929725
>>11929708
Stock typically pays out 4 times a year. Some do it twice. Others only once. Depends on the company or fund. Really the only good thing about a high div is that when you enable drip it buys you more shares of that stock for free so the value goes up at no cost to you over time. So say you buy 5 Disney shares @ $113 per. You enable drip. You keep those for 20 yrs. Over time all those div payouts will buy you more shares free. After 20 yrs you disable drip. You now will have a nice fat payout coming to you. The only way you won't is if Disney stops paying out the div or the company goes tits up.

>>11929708
So I can own 1 share and still get $0.20? As long as it is before the exdividend date.

>>11925271
I believe it's a white call duck. Poultry farms sell them.

>>11929830
It's a cool duck.

>>11929827
Long as you buy it a day or two before the date you'll get the div. But the amount of payout is set by the company. The stock will tell you. One share, twenty shares it don't mater. You'll still get the payout either way. Obviously the payout will be higher the more shares you buy though.

>>11929904
Thanks anon.

Are you thinking of buying just for the dividend then selling after?

>>11930026
I am thinking of buying for the dividend, if the price is higher by the exdividend date, then I will sell after, then collect my dividend and reinvest in the company.

>>11930026
Awful move, stocks drop by their dividend total after payment and to top it off dividends are a tax liability, you literally lose money doing that.

on the subject of dividends, someone talk to me about REITs. i've held some for the last year and they did pretty good by me with growth well above inflation and a healthy monthly dividend. i don't know if i should hold them should the market get bearish.

>>11930049

he should do it.. let it take him a few months to figure it out

you are partly right.. don't listen to all the retards in here. The problem is you have to know when it's actual "on sale" in the first place.. If you can get a good stock at a cheap price it's a buy imo.. Charts lie most the time.. try to trade without the charts..

China is fucking rocketing up.

i have sold 3k worth of stuff on ebay the last month.
