As for all the Tesla bullshit - this is an interesting article running contrary to all the MSM panic about TSLA becoming a shitty stock. It is biased in favor of Tesla, but still worth checking out.

https://cleantechnica.com/2019/05/31/the-media-is-telling-one-story-about-tesla-facts-tell-another/

its all going to crash to hell. deutche bank will trigger the fall of the house of cards.

>>13950236

Anyone here a buyer of self-issued bonds? :)

>>13950221
go ahead and buy TSLA then and see what happens

Chinese government is going to publish a whitepaper on their stance on the China-America trade talk at the time of:

Is random walk down wallstreet actually good for learning about stocks? If not then any recommendations?

anything related to selfdriving cars. the hype is over now and i want to know what's the current status

>>13950453
random walk basically says that you should put everything in an ETF and never pick stocks. he also claims that technical analysis is useless

of course this is patently false because the largest hedge funds in the world use technical analysis to make billions a year. that being said, an average investor is better off just DCAing into SPY their entire life

And China government have officially started investigating Fedex, who admitted that they have erroneously sent some Huawei documents to the United States.
Chinese media cited "professional" opinion, claimed that according to document leaked together with the PRISM, American government would intercept packages and sabotage them and embed secret software into those packages, so they suspect Fedex is acting on behalf of American government's order.
In my opinion, if Chinese government officially reached similar conclusion, then in the worst case scenario Fedex could be expulsed from the Chinese market.

>>13950453

why does Trump have unliateral authority over these trade matters
shouldn't congress be able to stop him from doing this

>>13950470

>>13951101
R u retarded?

>>13950529
Fedex delivers internally in China, or just picks up packages at the ports?

>>13951101
Congress has been neutered over time.
One of the main reasons is the size of the federal bureaucracy has grown, and the whole bureaucracy is under the president.
Congress and the justice department are sidecars, they are just accessories at this point.
So the president (and bureaucrats under him) can do all kinds of day-to-day policy things but congress can't react that quickly (and the courts can't react quickly).

The only solution in the long term is to streamline our federal government by offloading responsibilities to the states. The federal government should only be doing defense and international relations, which is what Trump is doing now (not necessarily well, but still). We can go back to fewer presidential 'emergency' powers and more congressional input to matters of foreign intervention.
You're very young so you might not know this, but there were times not too long ago where we couldn't bomb other countries or deploy troops without the approval of congress. But once you give a president certain powers, they all use them. Obama and HRC didn't complain when they got to use drone strikes and special forces...

Matters like abortion, welfare, and so on should be handled at the state level, because the federal government CAN'T do everything. The trend the past few decades has been towards the federal government, and especially the executive branch, being the whole government. Health care, education, EVERYTHING. This has especially been spearheaded by Democratic presidents, but they are all unwilling to give up power.

>>13951225
I blame Lyndon Johnson

Positive thing about all this Trade/Tariff bullshit is Cheapies Galore for those who've got the cash to blow. I don't think it could get any worse cause hell the only other trading partners we got is Japan and Canada. Least those are the biggest ones anyway. We just made nice with the middle east (Oil) so things should be ok on that side.

>>13951225
Things went to shit after 9/11. Bush used a tragic event as a tool to change so much shit it's just unreal.

>>13951265
you can blame theme all, but the real issues go back to certain wartime powers taken by the federal governments during the Civil War, WWI, the Great Depression, and WWII especially.

Certain powers were OK to take, most were not okay to take permanently, most should not even have been taken temporarily.

It isn't efficient, stable, or sensible that every four years we have 'whole-government-whiplash' between different policies.

We need a true leader to elucidate the proper structure of government. Every four years a bunch of fools stand up to say 'elect me, I'll chose the correct policies!'. But no one thinks that hey, maybe we need to dramatically change the structure of our government to something that can actually function. It's gotten to big, any kind of representation of a voter between a binary choice for a government that does everything is impossible.

>>13951297
you're a zoomer so not only can you not comprehend things before 9/11, you're not taught anything about history besides spending months on the holocaust every year.
The long term expansion of federal powers was underway long, long before GWB. By the time of Bush it was already a massive bureaucracy. He added 'no child left behind', DHS, and beefed up all the security agencies. Obama entangled the federal government in healthcare even more, and did a bunch of other big government stuff.
But most of the huge apparatus that we have today, by dollars spent or number of government workers, existed before that.

This IS the fucking problem. Daily order need to be going up every quarter. Teslas price is based on crazy growth, it’s the ONLY reason its been allowed to much debt. Tesla needs growth not consistent sales. This article just makes meore bearish on Teslas.

>>13951525

I'd argue they need both, eventually, to be sustainable

>Ignoring my main man Polk

>>13951548
If they just had consistent sales now they would go bankrupt, all this panic is 1 quarter actually lost customers and growth for the past 4 has been almost nonr. All the calculations don’t account for slumps in growth because EVERYTHING about their liabilities is based on the assumed skyrocketing growth/revenue. That shit isn’t happening and it’s becoming evident. The future value of tesla looks like bankruptcy now, not a futurisic electric car company taking over the market. The price changes a lot when people think you’ll go out of business vs take over a market, pedantic stuff

God I hope I get that pay bump at work. Be able to save 10k a year easy with money left over to invest on top of it.

I agree, but it's marginally going up every quarter, and Q2 it's up by a good amount. The whole point was that Q1 is supposedly an anomaly. I guess we gotta see what Q3 average daily rate will be - it'll be a catalyst.

Mises wasn't anti-State. He believed there was possibility of liberal-yet-limited state. Frankly, he was wrong as evidenced by the massive growth of governments in the West ever since monarchies and gold was dethroned. Monarchies were in feedback connection with populace lot more than modern state, and gold as currency was one of the main aspects keeping government growth in check (actually Mises' argument in one book)

yeah, but that's borg-mises and frankly he was right because he predicted massive growth of governments and us slowly sleep walking into anti-individualistic pseudo-capitalist socialism where the entrepreneur and property owners are mere managers for the collectivist bureaucracy that has built itself up from promising revenge against successful to the envious chimps in the voting booths. also something about gold.

Look to United States and how easily they gave up their rights whenever chance for it was offered, the single worst offender possibly being how short time the Articles of Confederation lasted. It was the time of limited (federal government) that they so cherish and masturbate over, and the fucks just gave it away. Why? Because the Framers were crying how the country was going to shit (because the federal government wasn't powerful enough).

>>13952652
I should say bond ETFs/mutual funds. Short term bonds seem to have pretty shit interest rates and you can get 2.45% in savings accounts now (like at CIT Bank). In my work 401k the money needs to go to a fund so I'm moving that money to their bond fund since I don't want to get dabbed on holding company stock or sp500


Interestingly enough I learned if you live in certain states and buy their state municipal bonds, your dividends are tax free. That might be worthwhile if you are in a high tax bracket and make a lot of money

The judiciary interprets the constitution. It is their authority which balances all the branches of government. Claiming that ‘activism’ and not jurisprudence is why the constitutional amendment was interpreted the way it was is cynical.

The right to bear arms and free speech has also been sufficiently eroded by the supreme courts interpretation of the constitution. Get used to it.

>>13954534
>It is their authority which balances all the branches of government

a system which none of the framers supported by the way, but here we are and it's all because not judiciary but the individual people interpret the constitution and can read anything they want into it.

> judiciary interprets the constitution
In a narrow legal sense the way structured government in US formally works now - yes

but in every day life the interpretations of people (ie. their ethical, philosophical, personal readings) will go into that 'Constitution' and alter it with each read and makes it possible for it adjust to time without amendments or changes (unless they're changes to the formal structure)

and no, individual voters do not elect people to write laws, those law clerks are not representatives of anything and they write most of the laws, and they're part of the administrative state you cant change by voting (but which got read into the structure of United States government)

Can you give me a general idea as to how long, and how much, I'll have to study until I'm ready to start investing, and how long until I'm ready for more advanced trading?

How do I invest in the increase in crime rates when all the unaborted, unwanted, and unplannned fetuses reach ages 15 - 30?

>>13955037
> dummies

yes, that's me. I'm not too much into the math stuff. A man needs to know his limits. I read this book once by this Edward Thorp fella. Up to this day I wonder how do you only get beaten up 2% at a casino? These magic math jews sure have queer ideas.

No robinhood in Denmark, but i did join a broker and transferred 1000$ to play with, I'm just curious if people have a general time frame of learning, i do find it quite entertaining to learn about the trade

>I'll have to study until I'm ready to start investing
go out and buy one share of F on monday, its never too late to start, even if its smalltime

you dont know how you will react to daily price movements until its really your money on the line

and then youll want to acclimate as you do more, watching $10 move up and down during the day feels a lot different than watching $1,000 move up and down, or $1,000,000 moving up and down by $100+ a minute

also ideally you want to learn something new every day, so never stop reading

in reality you can stop whenever, the only one who can decide otherwise is you
read until you are comfortable, theres no education requirement to invest, its your money

>>13955180
it introduces things way better than most math books ive read, but yea, some of its conclusions are trivial if youve taken some college level math (And liked it, or at least retained the info after you finished the course)

>>13955211
idk, i never read that one
I've never focused on casino gambling much, since the house has an inherit edge (if they didnt, they wouldnt be able to be in business in the first place)
plus I'm a sucker for gamblers fallacy once ive had a few drinks in me (especially if there is plenty of visible cleavage in my personal space)

>>13955233

supposedly it takes 40k learning tuition they say. I can't tell you if it's true because I'm just a larping commie trying to persuade them evil capitalists into losing moar money in these dire times, but there are certain books and pieces of wisdom that might help you out a lot. For instance here's some far eastern taoist wisdom: to make money you have to not care about money. like for real, bro. also since you're going to lose 24/7 all day and night, find out about the 2% rule, so you get to have way more swings at the game. (we all know you won't look it up yourself, so here you go: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/two-percent-rule.asp).).
also put your stop losses where they will NEVER hit, so you learn to close your positions when you know you're wrong.
if you're afraid you never get rich that way: right. get rich schemes aren't a thing, but power laws are.
also look up pic related. it's a great book and teaches you a growth mindset and discipline and what not.
also focus on one thing and do it over and over again until you become the best at it. then expand.
anything else? idk, I'm drunk.

ps: btw. spend money on your education. buy that stupid book. you'll be much more likelier to read it that way. (idk what it is about people to dismiss free shit, but we do)

>>13955118
Best way to learn the game is to start playing. No such thing as a theoretical stock trader, after all.

>>13955267
beat the dealer is essentially a money management strategy built around card counting. it tells you to maximise your stake when you have an edge and to minimise your risk when you have not. (similar to the kelly critereon) Back in the day when it came out it created a bonanza of people trying to "cheat" the casinos out of their money but subsequently led to these people being beat up or worse by security because it is bloody obvious when you play that way.

>>13955505

He doesn't say never pick stocks, he talks about the importance of diversification. you've obviously never read it

>>13955505
exactly, if there is an "easy" way to beat the system (outside of luck aka entropy of course), then you are missing something, or the casino would be out of business

9/10 games there are un-beatable from strategy, but if there is, the odds that you will be able to outsmart the people who get paid as their full time job to catch people like you are slim

>>13955548
Casinos are private entities (especially in america, where many are owned by native american tribes, aka outside of all state/local laws, and exempt from quite a few federal laws) that can deny service to anyone they want

they choose to allow anyone to use them unless they get banned (often from fixing or strait up cheating/tampering with games, but not always, a few drunken brawls where cops get called can get you perma banned from a casino too)
casinos are technically banned (and all gambling thats not the lottery is illegal) in most states in the USA, but tribal lands dont need to listen to state laws, since they are separate sovereign (legal) entities, domestically

and of course, anyone legally intoxicated can be forced to leave for the public good (again by cops if needed). this doesnt get enforced unless you are causing a problem while intoxicated

isnt gambling of any kind (casino, online, or otherwise) banned EU wide too, not to mention in quite a few other countries too

guys I need advice, I don't know anything about stocks and just inherited 10k worth of Dominion Energy stock. should I leave it because of the dividends, or would selling it for something like an index fund yield a better return?

>>13956182
Sell it, take the 10k and put it in RH. Buy UPRO and TMF on a 40% and 60% weight respectively (rebalance as often as you can). Use margin too so it‘s 15k instead of 10k for max gains. Write biweekly covered calls on UPRO at a 30 delta. Write 30 delta call credit spreads on TLT. Enjoy retirement in 15 years.

Buy everything with China exposure and receive massive benefits down the line.

>>13956791
>How can I, a total brainlet, wrap my mind around all the chaos right now revolving around bond rates, DB, SPY/SQQQ, REITs, MSRs, MSBs

Ah, so I'll do what I can. But what you're asking is kind of a big and oddly structured question.
Right now is a good time to learn about the markets, because so many interesting but somewhat binary things are happening. When Trump or China or the Fed or someone else announces something, prices move in predictable directions: the thing that is unpredictable is the announcements and their timings.

>bond rates
When there is some risk seen in equities (ex. Trump declares new tariffs), demand for bonds increases. So when bond demand increases, the yields fall to whatever yield people are willing to pay. If bond demand decreases, bond issuers have to pay a higher yield. Bond FUNDS (like TLT) hold existing bonds at a certain yield. So when yields fall, the yields of existing bonds have a premium, so bond FUNDs increase in value.

SPY is an index, SQQQ is inverse leveraged QQQ.

>REITs, MSRs, MSBs
REITs are more varied than you might think, they cover a wide variety of instruments. THe requirement for an REIT is to return 90% of earnings to holders blah blah blah... you have to ask a more specific question if you want info on this. MSRs and MSBs too.
But maybe what you're getting at is how their prices change when general bond yields change? it should be somewhat obvious?
yield is yield, if an REIT holds EXISTING mortgages or loans and the basis rate changes, the securities it holds will become more or less worth.

I don't mind if qt girls don't lift weights as long as they do some sort of exercise and can hold children :^)

>>13955023
yep, just look under agency debt, search highest yield and make sure they're non-callable.

>>13956923
>>13956791

>So when bond demand increases, the yields fall to whatever yield people are willing to pay

Ah what I meant was NEW bond yields fall

remember there are a BUNCH of bonds and treasuries that exist at any given time, and then new ones getting written.

So if you hold bonds that yield 2% and yields fall (new bonds yield 1%) you'd feel pretty good.

this is all super general though you have to ask more specific questions to get more specific answers

>>13955244
A police station.

>>13956923
>>13956972
Bonds also function with supply and demand.

When interest rates fall, existing bonds with higher interest rates become more valuable.

So you can earn a bunch of money from your bonds becoming more valuable, the interest is just gravy.

>>13956791
>Top tier cutie

Good info! Do FED interest rate cuts raise the value of existing bond yields, and why do bonds become more valuable in a recession?

My REIT question is mostly because I have been eying NRZ, which has taken a relatively large hit recently. Apparently it is an mREIT that has been hedging against it's MSR portfolio with agency bonds ... you know what? I think this is just too complicated for me.

>>13957724
4,3,5,2,1

>>13957724
Fed rates are like a precursor to bond rates
bond yields and T-bill yields are heavily influenced by the fed rates

I wouldn't go wild heavy into NRZ but a decent REIT allocation (10%-30% and diversified) is always OK

Any chance that Marvel makes the new movie not totally suck? The fact that it has Sansa Stark really worries me, she shouldn't be getting roles, she wasn't very good. Very few of the actors should be getting roles, arguably none of the Stark kids.

This seems like a really cool background story. Marvel should do more stuff like this, give people the info on the background comic book nerdy origin stuff.

Probably a good pick if you're in it for the long haul, cute doesn't always age well.

Anyways, I think I'll just hold off, I don't understand all these financial instruments. I just want cheap divvies DRIPing in my Roth.

I'm getting the feeling I should sell my bags, but I hate selling low. However, GDOT keeps dropping. (VSTM and LPTX are also continual losers, but I have much too much money in GDOT). But it feels too late for bonds, and too early to buy cheapies.

Juul, iQos, and cannabis

Honestly though I’m not optimistic about recreational cannabis’s impact on society. Should just be used for pain and for occasional introspection (a few times a year, max). Also, for adults to have fun times when enjoying Disney’s wholesome offerings!

do any of you guys have vic accounts?

>>13958308

Different batches yes, different distribution centers, but if you really care the difference can come down to little things like the temperature the backstock is kept at or if the workers stocking the shelves are smashing it up to fit more product on display.

>>13958372
But was that a charter school? Charter schools should be immune to that rule and a lot of them carry the unhealthy stuff and the kids cave in to temptation.

>>13958556
well, you are right about the charter school thing. As America undergoes demographic changes I'm p sure we will see schools filter out into either being public prison-pipeline training centers or privatized actual schools.

Not to mention, not sure how they’ll be effected by Mexico habbening. Though that will resolve quicker than China IMHDesu. Bollybands indicate too late for selling.

Closest thing would be Japan. Just subsidize the entire country of Japan. They're going to have to do something to convince people to breed, and playing on their love of cats is a good option.

(Abe is pushing women into the workforce, and his new solution is to make immigration to Japan less difficult. Not gonna work, they hate whites. Immigrants will quickly fill their prisons, as their judicial system is basically "guilty until proven innocent" and subject to the whims of public opinion. I would love to try to live in Japan, but as they are importing Western values, I don't want to get #MeToo'ed by some stinky broad on the bullet train.)

is that so? Ill look around for it then
Its private company though so no invest anyway

>>13959450
they own Zapp's too, you have to factor that in. They're really big in the Louisiana/East Texas area, I always see them there

>drug is unsafe
sauce?

I just think management is doing a terrible job. I'm worried about better drugs getting FDA approval and cutting them out of the market, possibly even getting BO's and sucking out all the oxygen in the space.

Actually, that is now what I'm concerned about with LPTX.

(I don't have the time to follow the ENTIRE sector to have an eye out for any potential dark horse. Valuable lesson, thank you Biotech for stealing my money and humbling me.)

>>13959468
I thought Zapp's was one of their big properties, like a well known phenomenon that yes, has cajun origins.

if i'm considering dumping a stock they is about to go ex dividend, should I wait or not?

I mean, shouldn't it drop by the value of the dividend so the choice is irrelevant?

>>13959518
no one knows
the true answer requires mathematics that haven't been discovered yet

HOWEVER, the math nerds HAVE shown an existence proof that indicates that an answer does exist. They just don't know what the answer is yet.

can u post a video of these slants

AMRN - Our Hero to be the next "Amazon". FDA has given them a hearing to be held on Sep 4th. I fully expect there to be no issues, just a simple "thumbs up" on the expanded label. Drug's already approved for use on high risk folk anyway so FDA's already in the know about what it does/how effect it is.

A buyout offer would not surprise me either at some point before or right after the ruling. They just hired some "P.R" person that once worked for Pfizer. A cozy deal may be in the works since that person surely still has contacts there. But maybe they were just hired to be the "P.R" person but the timing is highly suspect.

>>13959506
LPTX isn't bad, imo
They're a clinical stage biotech, which means they don't have to worry about actually selling their drug for a while
They've shown pretty good results in their clinical trials, iirc, but don't know enough about them to say anything about whether I think it could be a good investment or not

>COPIKTRA can cause serious side effects, including:

>Infections
>Diarrhea or inflammation of your intestine
>Skin reactions
>Inflammation of the lungs
>Elevated liver enzymes
>Low white blood cell count (neutropenia)

>Common side effects of COPIKTRA include:

Use of COPIKTRA is associated with a BOXED WARNING for four fatal and/or serious toxicities: infections, diarrhea or colitis, cutaneous reactions, and pneumonitis. Verastem Oncology has implemented a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy to provide appropriate dosing and safety information to better support physicians in managing their patients on COPIKTRA.

Contrast this with an extremely safe drug like GALT's (almost no side effects whatsoever seen in its clinical trials so far, safety profile similar to placebo group)

what kinda divy are you looking at, how soon, and why do you wanna dump?

>>13959655
Hmmm...

But copiktra is for people who have specific Leukemias and Lymphomas that haven't responded well to other treatments.

I imagine there's a high tolerance for risky or problematic side effects when you're taking what is, if I remember correctly, an at-home chemotherapy drug.

But this would explain why it has had such difficulty in being adopted by the oncology community.

>>13959878
Probably a combination of both bad management/sales team and bad safety profile, like you mentioned

>>13959782
Don't be to sure. He'll prob say some shit over there and cause the market to drop more. Now's the time to be "Cheapie hunting"

I bought AMD, fuck the trade war. It's going to double on June 10th.

>>13960251

and where the fuck you live? girls who smoke around my area either smoke paul malls, newports, or marlboro reds (almost always 100's, rarely if ever menthol)

only people I know who like camel crush and it's various offshoots are guys

also the best kind of girls will smoke djarum blacks
if you see a gal with a pack of djarum, the start talking to her ASAP

No way it doesn't jump, I guarantee it.

29.5% Cash
5.7% tvix
2.5% Crypto

OH, I forgot, I do have about 14k just sitting in the bank, and $800 in "emergency cash"

SIXTY-TWO PERCENT?!!?!??!!!!!

>>13960432
>it's going to explode or I'll cut my own dick off.
Probably the ladder for you but i can tell you now it won't get doubled. I might pick up some calls but i have to do some DD. AMD's a stock i keep missing out on

>>13958838
as long as they don't go bankrupt they will recover, probably big time. the demand for electric is growing and they have an edge with their mega battery factories. very few have an electric vehicle today and some countries even have set laws that gasoline cars will be illegal after a certain date. i think france will require 100% electric after 2030, though i might have misheard? maybe it was 100% hybrid or something.

ok so what if they go bankrupt? well that's when Elon comes in. he'll bankrupt himself before he let tesla go under, i believe. electric cars is something he have been wanting since he was a kid and Elon is very special since he is not driven by profits, he just wants to leave a legacy behind and further the progress of mankind.

>>13960443
If you don't like how much of your net worth is in the market, then just sell out now
It's not panic selling if you're legitimately concerned that it could impact your quality of life and you want to put more money away for savings/emergency expenses, etc

>>13960301
To put it in less hysterical terms, it's not "different", this ain't good for Alphabet or tech stocks in general. Look at Microsoft share price during their antitrust proceedings.

>>13960461
>>13960443
Putting 5.7% of your net worth in TVIX is the most retarded thing of all
That money is guaranteed to decay into nothing in the long term unless the market is actively crashing

>>13952988
ebic pasta sure haven't seen that one before -_-

>>13960486
it's not there permanently, I just bought thurday and friday. Would have flipped some Friday when I flipped my SDOW, but I didn't want to get day-trade flagged

>>13960432
did you even watch the computex stuff? AMD's cpus are doing really well while their gpu line sucks ass and is only good for the low end. Vega was a huge flop and they said they only have marginal improvements for vega 2

How good or poor for one is a decision to invest into something one is using repetitively and regularly? What would buying some 4chan's stocks, for example, be considered to be?

>>13960483
It may affect the stock price short term, but most likely it's just noise that doesn't make the company any less fundamentally appealing

>>13960515
Fair enough, as long as you don't hold it for extended periods of time

>>13960528
I was one of the guys on /g/ constantly backing vega and the R7 with benchmarks and tuning advice. The V56 is now the best budget card there is and the R7 is an insane performer when tuned as well.

Outside of the 2080ti, nvidia can't compete unless you are talking super marginal power savings that only matter for mining. Intel had a big lead, but the new ryzen processors absolutely butt fuck anything they have. AMD will lead the silicon market until 2020 at least.

Thinking crabbing for the rest of the week either that or drop this doesn’t give me a bullish vibe...

>>13960578
vega is value since miners are dumping them and you can get vega 56 for like $200. I sold my amd anyway, maybe if it goes down the next few days ill dip back in

The one who tweeted this information, HuXijin, is the editor of Global Times, which is more focused on promoting nationalistics sentiement in China and not as serious as other media. Although China would most likely act in this way this time

And that is why it could be wrong.

>China think it is irresponsible for America to criticize China to "regress" during trade talk, claim that before the main agreement being reached, all talks are just talks and there are no agreement, and emphasis in English that "Nothing is agreed until everything is agreed"

I guess that mean it will be as difficult to reach a China-America trade deal as making a Brexit deal.
