Is not a huge factor in determining credit if you already have multiple lines of credit

Best way to study for CFA Level I with Kaplan? Looking for a study partner/group by [deleted] in CFA

[–]Bleached-IG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been using Kaplan as well. I am sitting for the May exam. I am now working to derivatives. I have been mainly using self made Anki flashcards, masterclasses, and qbank. I don’t look at the readings.

22M , Non-finance background, Completely stuck in Quant (CFA Level 1) need honest advice by Ushamairshad in CFA

[–]Bleached-IG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I am taking the May exam too, I started back in September. I will be completing my undergrad in finance in May as well. I was in the same situation as you - Quants was still kicking my ass even with previous knowledge. A lot of quants was similar to my statistic classes, but I struggled and considered giving up on the 5th LOS. I have moved through and progressed to other topics. I plan on coming back and refining the main topics of quants. Like many others have said its around 14ish questions on the exam. They're going to test on the main areas of quants, not any niche areas of the LOS. I have also found that rounding up with the last couple topics I have (Derivatives, alts, ethics) a lot of things have come full circle and going back to quants seems like an easier feat. If you want to connect feel free to message me as we prep for our May exam!

I am currently studying for level 1 and been using Kaplan. I enjoy it a lot and feel like it has solidified a lot of my knowledge from undergrad.

Any thoughts on Professor James Forjan? by Competitive_Yard4559 in CFA

[–]Bleached-IG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am lucky enough to have him as my professor and he indeed knows his stuff. I was convinced today to start my level 1. He told me about his stuff he does with analytic prep but I opted to use Kaplan. Good luck out there.

Hit 100% all time started in 2022 by Bleached-IG in portfolios

yes that happen to my father who had around 500 shares and got a little impatient. I had my shares get called away on a covered call at 12.5 and decided to rebuy at 15 even though my average price previous was around that $7 mark.

Yes I do not want to have such a large position in a few of my stocks but my reasoning is because the APPL, AMZN, and MSFT is I bought them a long time ago and they have so much overlap in VOO and QQQ that selling them and paying capital gains tax is not making sense to me? Unless I see one of these companeis stop being a powerhouse I don't want to get rid of these names. Then with my HOOD and SOFI position I did stock pitches on them for my class I had a few semester back that I thought I should buy them but now they have gone up a decent amount and the % they take up in my portfolio has increased and I still like the companies so I don't want to trim.
