For those new to Reddit and to investing and trading - please be aware that social media platform like Reddit, Discord, etc. can be a vector for scams and fraud. Offers to DM should be viewed as suspicious. Social media platforms continue to be a common method to recruit new investors to scams. - do not assume that an offer to "help" is legitimate. There are many dozens of types of scams - a list of scam types can be found in r/scams in the master list here: /r/Scams Common Scam Master Good explanation of pig-buthering here - Pig butchering - how to spot Legitimate investment advisors do not use WhatApp, Telegram, Discord, etc. to provide tips. In the US - it is against regulation - specifically SEC Rule 17a-4 and FINRA Rule 3110. For example - brokers in the US that use social media for support do not offer investment advice. It is common for bots and malicious actors on Discord to impersonate Reddit and Discord mods to distribute their scams. It is possible to create a Discord profile which appears similar to someone else. Pump and dump of stocks are common on social media - bots or stock promoters who are seeking to profit from pumping a stock or to create hype. You can sometimes identify if it's a bot or promoter simply by looking at the posters comment and post history. Often you will see that the account has posted nothing related to investing or trading but suddenly there is the same or varying versions of comments on one or two specific stocks. One other way to recognize suspicious posts is if the OP never engages in a discussion on comments and questions in the thread on their own dd. Those are all signs of stock promotion. Offers to mirror trade and teach you how to trade are usually fake. If you receive private solicitations to open accounts at a broker or investment adviser, be wary. Depending on where you live - you can verify the legitimacy of a broker or investment adviser. Most countries have legal requirements for investment advisors and brokers to be registered. United States - check the registration status of a broker at the FINRA web site here - https://brokercheck.finra.org/ You can check disclosures for investment advisers at the SEC IAPD web site here - https://adviserinfo.sec.gov/ United Kingdom - Financial Conduct Authority - https://www.fca.org.uk/consumers/fca-firm-checker - a warning list of fake companies can be found here - https://www.fca.org.uk/consumers/warning-list-unauthorised-firms Canada - CIRO - https://www.ciro.ca/office-investor/dealers-we-regulate For those interested in understanding a little more about stock promoting and pump-and-dumps - one of the mods provided an AMA 15 years ago about a penny stock pump operation that he unwittingly became associated with - you can find the AMA here - https://www.reddit.com/r/investing/comments/158vi7/i_used_to_be_a_penny_stock_promoter_in_the_late/ If you believe that you or someone has been the victim of a trading or investing scam. Be aware of the following: Do not send more money. Do not provide additional banking or credit card information. It is common to be contacted by additional scammers who may pretend to be law enforcement or private services to offer to "recover" funds for payment. This is a common follow-up scam. Law enforcement will never ask for money. If a login account was created. The password used is compromised. Change all passwords that are used. The password will be shared and sold to other scammers. If payment was sent via a credit card or bank transfer - report the transfers as fraud to your bank or credit card company. submitted by /u/AutoModerator [link] [comments]

Today the Federal Reserve holds its April meeting. The rate decision is fully priced 100% probability of no change at 3.50-3.75%. But there is a longer term story worth thinking about. This is Jerome Powell's last meeting as Fed chair. Kevin Warsh takes over on May 15. Warsh has stated he wants a different approach to monetary policy a new inflation framework, a smaller balance sheet, and a different communication cadence. The practical implication for investors: monetary policy credibility is partly about predictability. When markets know how a central bank will respond to incoming data, they can price assets accordingly. A leadership transition that changes the framework introduces genuine uncertainty into that pricing process. This transition is happening against an unusual backdrop an oil-driven inflation shock, CPI at 3.3%, and a geopolitical conflict that shows no clear path to resolution. That's a harder starting environment for a new chair than most transitions in recent memory. The question worth sitting with isn't what the Fed does today. It's whether the Fed's policy framework looks the same six months from now as it does today and what that means for bond yields, the dollar, and equity valuations. submitted by /u/One_Cancel7890 [link] [comments]

Low P/E, below book, decent yield... On paper it looks like a deal but the market clearly disagrees. I've been on both sides of this... bought stuff that turned out to be value traps and also passed on things that were genuinely undervalued because I couldn't tell the difference at the time. What's the actual line between a real mispricing and a company in structural decline that just happens to look cheap on the numbers? submitted by /u/Educational-Belt1042 [link] [comments]

The market is awaiting earnings reports from: Meta Platforms ($META), Amazon ($AMZN), Alphabet ($GOOGL), and Microsoft ($MSFT). In addition, the semiconductor company Qualcomm ($QCOM) will release its financial results. Analysts are particularly focused on the growth of AI revenue and the performance of its cloud divisions. The results are expected to be released around 4 p.m. ET submitted by /u/GlobalTechnician5442 [link] [comments]

Microsoft has a wide, competitive software moat, but software in general is under threat from growing AI capability. As far as the AI race is concerned, it seems their cloud service azure lags behind competitors like Google, and others. They recently lost their solo relationship with open AI. Microsoft copilot is more of a software enhancement than a functioning chatbot. It doesn’t seem anywhere near as advanced industry piers. Why is Microsoft a better longterm, risk adjusted opportunity than its competitors, or any other play in the market for that matter? submitted by /u/Gaba_My_Gool [link] [comments]

https://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/28/uae-opec-oil-iran.html Wild move on relatively short notice; seeing whether the rest of the cartel remains stable is a big thing to watch for, along with where exactly long-term oil prices settle after what will almost assuredly be an extended period of high volatility. We tend to see a range of like $55-90/bbl but only because the Gulf states deliberately hold back crude so it doesn't crash to their f&d floor of like below $30/bbl, but generally that comes with the agreement that they will release oil when prices start to seriously spike so that we don't get $100/bbl for long periods of time. If that coordination is gone (OPEC eventually dissolves) we could see a much wider range of oil prices going all the way down to near production cost, but with not much spare capacity, that means in true short supply conditions, it wouldn't be surprising to see $150+/bbl. The big thing is that the UAE absolutely does not make a move like this without us knowing, and approving. If you see other states leaving OPEC in the next 6 months, it could very well be that they just form a new cartel without Iran, since this move is nothing if not a huge signal that at least the UAE is turning their back on them. submitted by /u/Elitist_Daily [link] [comments]

Since it's inception 25 years ago, the value of VTI has increased 510%. That comes out to an average annual gain of 20.4%, which seems unrealistic. What I've heard is to expect an average annual gain of 8-10% over a 20 to 30-year time period. Is there something I'm analyzing incorrectly here? submitted by /u/Neurodelic88 [link] [comments]

CATL launched sodium-ion batteries at scale and BYD is building massive production facilities for them. Sodium is 500 times more abundant than lithium and can be extracted from seawater. CATL already cut its lithium mining targets. Think about what that means for every lithium miner people have been piling into. What's interesting to me is what stays the same regardless of who wins the battery chemistry war. Copper is still needed for all the infrastructure, wiring, charging stations, grid upgrades. Aluminium actually wins if sodium-ion takes over because these batteries use aluminium instead of copper for the electrodes. Graphite is needed in the anode of both lithium and sodium-ion batteries. And rare earths are needed for every motor in every EV and every robot regardless of what powers them. Speaking of robots thats the next wave. Tesla is converting a factory for Optimus, Hyundai's Boston Dynamics won best robot at CES, XPeng is planning mass production household robots by end of this year. Every single one of these needs rare earth magnets, copper wiring, aluminium frames, graphite batteries. China filed almost 4x more humanoid robotics patents than the US in the last 5 years and controls 70% of the component supply chain. I've been reasearching companies that supply the raw materials all of this is built from rather than trying to pick which robot or battery company wins. Copper miners, aluminium producers, rare earth companies, graphite. The demand is coming regardless of which technology or which country ends up on top. Anyone else looking at this from the supply chain angle or am I overthinking it? submitted by /u/devreme [link] [comments]

They are proposing the following to me: 45 y/o male currently mostly in cash. Based on our discussions and my risk factor, they are saying 70/30 stocks and bonds. THey are saying it would be a blend of fidelity and non fidelity funds/etfs. I would start with about 50k to invest and the fee would be 1.5% and would drop if I chose to put in more money with them: EDIT: Also, somsone asked why they are including SMAs. fyi...this was based on a bigger portfolio so maybe that is why they included it....but i told them if i start, it would be with a smaller position of maybe 50k...so this chart might look differnet if Im giving them 50k instead of the higher amount this was based off of. Lastly, fidelity was saying they could help save with tax implications by having someone manage this.

openai missed their numbers + the AI trade is shaky wsj reported openai's revenue and user growth came in below their own targets, anthropic and gemini apparently eating their lunch since late 2025. their cfo flagged concerns about funding future compute deals. nasdaq dropped 1.1%, softbank tanked 10%, every chip stock got hit. this is the first real crack in the AI capex story thats been driving the entire rally. semis up 33% in 3 months on that narrative alone. msft, google, amazon, meta all report tonight. iran situation getting worse (?) iran offered to reopen hormuz if nuclear talks get deferred, trump said no, iran re-closed it again. march cpi already spiked to 3.3% almost entirely on energy. if hormuz stays closed the may 12 cpi print could come in above 3.5%, thats probably the most dangerous data point in the next 45 days. consumer confidence at a 48 year low, inflation expectations jumped from 3.8% to 4.8% in one month goodbye powell + his replacement just killed rate cuts todays fomc is likely powell's last. warsh cleared his final hurdle over the weekend, senate banking committee voting on confirmation this morning. at his hearing he said "the president never asked me to commit to rate cuts" and markets believed him. fedwatch shows basically zero chance of more than one cut all year. warsh also wants to ditch forward guidance, stop regular press conferences, revert to strict 2% targeting. (mid term) buybacks about to come back $1.2T in share repurchase authorizations for 2026, biggest on record. most companies in blackout right now because of earnings season but windows start reopening mid-may. credit spreads are near 25 year tights which means the bond market isn't worried about systemic risk at all. so even if we get a pullback its probably 3-5%, not 10%+. the largest buyer in the market is about to flip back on submitted by /u/Hungry-Command-8454 [link] [comments]

I remember when I made my first post about this, most of the comments were telling me the stock price itself didn’t matter, only market cap did, and that I should sell immediately I decided not to follow that advice. Instead, I held onto my ESPP shares because, as an employee, I knew the company was performing really well and I didn’t see things suddenly turning negative I’m honestly so glad I trusted my gut. I sold some shares the other day at $500/share, and I still have others that are now worth around $655/share, roughly 8x what I paid. That still feels unreal to say It definitely makes me wish I’d put all my money into Seagate stock, but obviously that wouldn’t have been allowed outside of ESPP. Now I’m in this fun but stressful spot trying to decide when to sell the rest, 8x is an amazing return, but there’s always that “what if it keeps going up?” feeling Anyway, just an update: I really did hit gold, and I still can’t quite believe it especially when my investing knowledge is very little. submitted by /u/TrashTheGreat [link] [comments]

Hello, I'm having some trouble figuring out what to do with my index fund. I started a 100% stock index fund when I was 23, I'm 28 now, I put all my savings into it. With my miserable european salary I have managed to save up around 30,000 euro (after investing about 20,000) and so has my gf. We're going to buy a house in the next 2-4 years.

Hypothetically if I were to dump say $1mill into XLKS.L, which was founded in 2009 and has an AUM of just 2 billion, should I be concerned about the liquidity of the fund, or rather the immediacy in which my buy (or sell) order goes through? The fund's 3 top components are Nvidia, Apple and Microsoft, and those are highly traded, so I figured I shouldn't encounter any issues, but I thought I'd ask the more experienced people here for insights. You can read about XLKS.L here: https://www.invesco.com/be/en/financial-products/etfs/invesco-technology-sp-us-select-sector-ucits-etf-acc.html#Trading-%26-Security submitted by /u/Ok-Yogurtcloset-9664 [link] [comments]

Has anyone recently gone through receiving stocks from a UTMA account from their parents? I don't know why this is being done so late but I'm 35 and as far as I know, it should've been transferred over at 21 I think. I guess my fault for not researching it more thoroughly but I wasn't really into investing before this year. Hoping to finalize the transfer in the next week or so but need to get it stamped by a guarantor or something. So brings me back to my original question. Any recent beneficiaries of a transfer to yourself from your parents? What did you do with them? Transferred to your primary brokerage? Sell, hold? How was the process? I don't think mine is crazy - it's three individual companies (AT&T, Comcast and Verizon). ~60 shares Comcast, ~300 Verizon and unsure AT&T but think its even less. I'd like to sell them and put it into ETF's but that will be a taxable event from my understanding. submitted by /u/Crazy-Cat-Lad [link] [comments]

I've been in the market for quite some time so I know when everyone is euphoric and bullish like this, the chance for the markets sell off is pretty high. Today thanks to NVDA, my portfolio hits ATH.

Campine NV – 2025 report Read through the full 2025 annual report. A few key takeaways: 2025 headline numbers Revenue: €766m EBITDA: €89.1m Net profit: €56.6m EPS: €37.75 Adjustments / one-offs Bargain purchase gain (Ecobat): ~€6.5m net (~€4.3/share) Transaction costs: ~€0.7m → Normalised net profit ~€50–51m (≈€34/share) → Normalised EBITDA ~€80m Ecobat impact Added €10.7m to reported EBITDA (incl. accounting effects) Only ~€0.6m profit contribution in 2025 (partial year) Full-year contribution expected from 2026 onward Operational positives ATO volumes +11%, capacity now ~18kt/year Export volumes outside Europe >2x vs 2023 ~15% of antimony already from recycling (proprietary tech) Ecobat adds 70kt recycling capacity + growth headroom Risks / negatives Antimony price peaked mid-2025, then dropped sharply High prices reduced demand temporarily (~20–30%) Inventory devaluation at year-end Earnings still strongly tied to antimony market conditions 2026 outlook (based on report) Demand already recovering early 2026 First full year of Ecobat Likely earnings range: ~€40–45m (weaker pricing) ~€50–55m (base case) €60m+ if market stays tight Bottom line 2025 was exceptional, but even after normalising, earnings remain strong. The key question is how much of current profitability is structural (recycling + market position) vs cyclical (antimony prices). https://www.campine.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/campine-jaarverslag-2025-a4-eng-esef-digi.pdf submitted by /u/Healthy-Matter-4218 [link] [comments]

I have a 401k that's over 10 years old. I made selections of which investments my contributions went into when I opened it and haven't changed them. I would not have selected anything with less than a 10 year track record, but one fund (Harbor Capital Appreciation CIT Class 2) is showing as having an inception date of 2020. That confuses me a great deal. Can someone explain how that would be? I chose the investments in the 401k back in 2015, 5 years before the stated inception date of that fund. submitted by /u/BrianLevre [link] [comments]

What stood out to me today is that several headlines which look unrelated at first glance may actually be telling the same investment story. On the China side, Q1 transport data still looks solid. Official figures showed commercial freight volume rose 4.1% year-on-year, which matters because transport and logistics data often say more about real economic activity than the market gives them credit for. To me, that suggests the underlying industrial and logistics chain is still holding up better than a lot of people assume when they focus only on property stress or weak consumer sentiment. For investors, that is more relevant to the medium-term outlook for infrastructure, industrial activity, and the broader “hard economy” than it is to a single-day market move. At the same time, global equity markets are still behaving as if AI remains the cleanest and most investable growth story. Reuters’ market coverage made it clear that traders are still centering this week around mega-cap earnings and AI-related capex expectations, even with geopolitical risks still unresolved. In practical terms, that means the market is still willing to give a premium to businesses tied to compute, semiconductors, networking, and AI infrastructure, because those are viewed as more durable than most other growth narratives right now. But the other side of today’s news is oil. Reuters also reported that markets are still watching Iran and the Strait of Hormuz closely, with oil prices moving higher again as supply risk remains unresolved. That matters because oil is not just an “energy trade” issue. If it stays elevated for long enough, it pushes back into inflation expectations, transport costs, margins, and eventually central-bank flexibility. In other words, higher oil can slowly turn a geopolitical problem into an investment problem for almost every sector outside of the obvious beneficiaries. So the way I read today’s headlines is this: the market still has a reason to stay constructive because AI and parts of the real economy are holding up, but the macro backdrop is getting more fragile underneath. That is why I do not think this is a clean bullish setup. It looks more like a market where leadership can remain strong while the foundation becomes more sensitive to inflation, energy, and policy risk. My takeaway as an investor is that today’s news supports two ideas at once: first, there are still pockets of genuine economic resilience and real earnings support; second, the durability of that optimism may depend heavily on whether oil risk stays contained. If oil becomes the macro center again, the conversation could shift very quickly from “where is growth?” to “how much pressure can valuations absorb?” https://english.scio.gov.cn/pressroom/2026-04/23/content_118458467.html submitted by /u/Zestyclose_Mail_4569 [link] [comments]

WSJ says OpenAI missed internal rev and user targets, partly from Gemini/Anthropic competition. Reuters previously reported OpenAI’s $ORCL compute deal at $300B over ~5 years, or roughly $60B/year, starting in 2027. If OpenAI monetization is lagging while compute commitments ramp, does $ORCL’s AI backlog look riskier, or is the demand still money-good? submitted by /u/alphapod-Ai [link] [comments]

The entire reason stocks declined 10% during the war with Iran was the fear of an extended conflict that could lead to Hormuz being closed and oil prices being higher for longer. Stocks more than rebounded to new highs after a cease fire and the belief the US admin couldn't stomach a prolonged conflict and high oil prices. Over the past few days, the very reason the market initially took a significant dump has mostly been confirmed. Hormuz is likely to be closed for longer than anyone expected back in March. Rising oil, combined with rising treasury yields due to expected inflation, have become a reality. Yet stocks are mostly unmoved by this new reality. How's this possible? Are stocks really being artificially propped up until Spacex IPOs so that interested parties don't take a massive haircut? What could be the reason the market has all of a sudden chosen to ignore negative factors it once reacted violently to? And before anyone says tech stocks have great earnings, IWM is still near ATH and it's full of profitless companies that are the most sensitive to high costs and high yields. These are the same stocks that took a massive dive in 2022 over high inflation and yields. Yet they're not behaving the same way as of 3 weeks ago. submitted by /u/BGID_to_the_moon [link] [comments]

been working through Arch Capital for the past few weeks and wanted to get my notes down somewhere. posting here because I'd genuinely like to hear what I'm getting wrong. short version of why I bothered. it's a specialty property and casualty insurer, plus reinsurance, plus mortgage insurance. roughly $34B market cap. trades around $97 today. tangible book is $61.71 a share, so 1.56x book. they've grown book value per share at over 15% a year for 23 years. that's the kind of compounding that usually doesn't sit at 1.5x book for very long. the way insurers actually make money is they collect premiums today, pay claims later, and get to invest the gap in between. that gap is called float. Arch sits on $24B of it. their five-year average combined ratio is 88%, which means after they pay all the claims and expenses, they keep 12 cents on every premium dollar. so the float isn't just free, they're being paid to hold it. that float backs a $47B investment portfolio that threw off $1.62B of investment income last year on top of the underwriting profit. here is what the picture looks like, just the lines that matter to me: price $97 tangible book per share $61.71 5yr avg ROE 20.1% 5yr avg combined ratio 88% float $24.0B TTM buybacks $1.89B (5.6% of shares) new buyback authorization (Apr 2026) $3.0B what made me actually pay attention. property catastrophe pricing softened 10-20% in Q4 2025. most insurers respond to soft pricing by writing more business to keep the top line up. Arch shrank net premiums written by 4% instead. management has been clear they would rather write less at the right price than more at the wrong one. you only see that behavior at insurers that compound long-term, and it's also the behavior the market punishes in the short run. at the same time the board authorized another $3B in buybacks on top of what they were already doing. so a 19.5% ROE business is buying its own stock at roughly 8.4x earnings while shrinking premium volume on purpose. those are two pretty bullish signals doing the opposite of what a deteriorating insurer would do. what I'm not as sure about. regulatory capital requirements are the real risk in my view. if global regulators decide insurers need to hold more capital per dollar of premium, ROE comes down by math, not by anything management can offset. I think this is the actual reason the multiple is suppressed, and it's not nothing. catastrophes are the other one. management's own model says a 1-in-250-year peak zone event is about $1.9B, or 8.2% of tangible equity. survivable, but those events have been showing up more often than the modeling implied for a while now. I'm less worried about insurtech. specialty casualty reinsurance treaties don't get bound through a phone app, and that's where Arch plays. where I land. you're paying 1.5x book for a 20% ROE compounder with disciplined management actively buying back stock at single-digit earnings multiples. the math suggests fair value somewhere around $120-125, current price is $97, and book should keep compounding at mid-teens while you wait. I could be wrong about how regulatory capital plays out, and one genuinely bad cat year could eat 12-18 months of earnings. but I don't see anything that says the underlying business is structurally broken. happy to be argued with on any of this. holding a position. submitted by /u/solacelabx [link] [comments]

I hold both ETF's in my portfolio (DCA issues over time) and I have noticed that SOXQ has beaten SMH across most metrics so far over the past year. Using Stock Analysis... 1 Year: SOXQ = 138.75%, SMH = 133.06% 6 Months: SOXQ = 40.99%, SMH = 37.25% 3 Months: SOXQ = 23.66%, SMH = 20.52% 1 Month: SOXQ = 35.10%, SMH = 31.59% I'm guessing this phenomenon is because SMH is more heavily weighted toward NVDA, while SOXQ is more heavily weighted toward MU, which has been on an absolute tear this past year. submitted by /u/GenXDrummer [link] [comments]
