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

Well I don't know how to apply myself in any way. Like I said, despite having a degree in data analytics I don't really feel like I have any skills. The only thing I know is one program that kept getting shoved on us in college to run all our data through and it turns out barely anyone even uses that program and the people that do want 5 years experience, two internships, etc etc.

I'm not familiar with what would be covered in a DA degree, but it does sound like you won't really learn any practical skills; more sens in doing CS or any engineering degree then going on to do DA in the job.

Are you in the US or Europe? There are plenty of companies that have or don't save lots of data that could have value. The company I work for certainly has that problem. The issue is that if all you know is DA but nothing else, you can't get very far.

I didn't know how to apply myself in college (more accurate to say that I didn't care to). I was fortunate to get the job I have, and I've had no problem working hard and enjoying it for a few years now.

Do you have any positive job experience, even at menial jobs? what kind of tasks do you enjoy most?

They don't have to be interesting. I was a dishwasher in high school. I don't really have to talk about it on interviews or whatever, the point is that it was a good experience and I learned how to work.
You could still maybe try asking around other departments at the uni you went to to do DA on whatever they are doing research on, as a research fellowship or whatever.

>>12736943
The whole point of REITs is that they just sit there and pay a div. The value of the instrument is based on the value of properties or other assets that they hold and their future cash flows. They have to pay most of their future cash flows to the people who own the REIT, but some can go to acquiring more productive property and maintaining assets.
So they won't increase or decrease in value much, depending on the stability of real estate markets and the dollar

They don't outperform Mr. SP or Mr. Dow but they are solid investments at certain points in the market and real estate cycles.

similar story with high div companies. If they can't maintain income through sales they will have to decrease div or die. If they are well managed the div will grow along with revenues

weak investors will chose dividend stocks by the published 'instantaneous' div yield number that shows up. Do your research to get strong divs with value and growth

[Anonymous No.12737008]

>>12736905
Companies that pay high dividend yields can have two major issues: 1.) Not investing enough of those earnings back into the company which would help improve share price (I know you're more in it for dividends than capital appreciation) & 2.) High yields may not always be sustainable in the long run and when yield drops, share price usually follows.

Didn't research your stock, just my 2cents, good luck, the average of those rates will beat the S&P over the long run.

>However one sign of consumer demand, credit inquiries, slipped in the second half of 2018 to the lowest level recorded by the New York Fed.

as the payout ratio increases the stock value will be more tied to the div then possibilities for growth, so the statement makes sense
unless the company is very oddly valued for some reason or catastrophically mismanaged, either condition is unlikely and won't last long.

monetary policy isn't quite my forte but I will say that, in a crisis they will likely have to resort to increasingly extraordinary and unusual forms of stimulus to try to keep the lid on things. Debt and interest rate levels at large have been loosing their effectiveness as a measure of stimulus. Eventually we will be forced to confront the real instability at the heart of capitalism and its method of production and exchange. This means longer, deeper downturns so long as we do not radically restructure the economy (or start some war that destroys a massive chunk of physical capital).

ARMN was on a roll today my friends;sold on the upswing for the nice profits man, walked away with a nice big bag of cash, enough to cover my investment at last.
Took that bag of cash and dumped it all on more T; He showed his gratitude shortly about a minute after for you see he jumped to 30 per share by god. Now I'm pulling down about a $100 in Divvy's. True it don't seem like much now, however after 14 years have passed and thanks to Drip and more investments over that time span the payout should be nice and fat like a pig man. Enough to keep me warm during the cold winter months after I'm retired. Can kick back and do nothing at all; let others stress about all that kinda stuff.

Very difficult to get a job through those unless you are experienced and in demand. The two interviews that I got were through people I know, most online applications I didn't hear back from.
Gotta do the network meme. That can mean getting a menial job, picking up a hobby where you will meet people, etc.

First step before doing anything is to clearly define your goal.

Just get some kind of job and do your thing. Don't be afraid to apply outside of your major, even significantly outside of your major. Apply for any entry-level job with Java as the main requirement, disregard the other requirements and just see what happens.

If your area is saturated you might not get anything. The applying and interviewing sucks, no other way to say it.

For you see I've got in all figured out kinda on what to do during my retirement years. I'll be the perverted old man in the neighborhood.

Picture it; 50 years old and retired; I work out a deal with the neighbors daughter. She comes over after school and takes care of me. Her parents think she's got a job. Which is true, kinda. She's over every weekday at 5. Hey it's all cool, she's 18 you know. What you didn't think I'd stoop that low? I'm old, not dead you know. As to how I did it you ask? Simple; college is expensive as fuck man. I pay her nice and simple but I get something in return for my nickle.

Yeah I dunno, like I said, my major isn't that good for getting jobs and I have no other professional skills. No one's gonna hire a video editor who can't at least make an animated title in After Effects. So I guess it's just Java that I can advertise then.
Mostly the reason I can't stand menial jobs is how awful they are. There's never any downtime and you're always doing some shit task. That and being on the poverty line. I want to be able to afford several cosmetic surgeries and I'm not going to get there by washing dishes.

I don't deal in defense contractors. DG is an ironclad stock. Will do well in almost any larger economic scenario: trade war, recession even a larger bull run.

>“Within the value retail sector, Dollar General is the least exposed with only ~5% of their products being directly sourced, this compares to ~16% for Family Dollar and ~41% for Dollar Tree,” the note said. “Nonetheless, minimal categories from these retailers are impacted and we do not believe the cigarettes sold at these stores are imported from China.”

Using RH to get some experience interacting with the market is fine, but if a $5 commission is cutting into your gains that much then you should be investing in yourself (rather than stocks) to get a higher paying job, THEN start investing in the market.
RH is "free" because they get paid to route your orders to crooked exchanges where you'll get the worst price possible for your order type and someone pockets the spread.

The taxable event is when you sell the stock, so the only 'transaction history' that matters is the price that it was bought at and the price it was sold at. The brokerage firm will have the history of what price you purchased the stock at and include it in the tax forms you are sent - that is subtracted from the the price at which you sold the stock and your gain/loss is taxed in that year.
