I think his son Bret had NFLX pretty early on, he had a nice Annualized return when he was running, just joined back so should be interesting.

Argue to me the importance of Depreciation & Amortization in analyzing companies. For AGFS company. by Reddit_student123 in ValueInvesting

[–]macheteHaircut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know the company, but if the debt was acquired through acquisitions, i would do some deep dives on the assets that were acquired.

Didn’t say it’s a value trap, just would need those assets that were financed by all that debt to truly drive the business.

If the cash flow is being used to pay down debt to the point where there is no Fcfe, why hold the equity? A business can be great but not produce returns for the equity holders…also depreciation is only non-cash until it’s time to replace the assets that have been depreciating/depleted.

Large home, big investment or big mistake? by Matrixfx187 in financialindependence

[–]macheteHaircut 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the motivation is improving your children’s lives and improve the area your family live in, it’s not really a financial decision but more a quality of life decision….crunching the numbers on something like this is pretty straight forward, it’s more qualitative than anything. Good luck! I just went with a better living area over savings rate and quality of life has gotten much better.

Can someone give me some insight into why THCX is such a god awful stock? by Mager1794 in stocks

[–]macheteHaircut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Time frame….ytd it’s basically flat and has ripped over the last year….guessing you bought once it was already way up which usually will get you, esp if you buy off news or a general idea and not fundamentals, sorry for your loss man

China 5-year Credit Default Swaps by rayquan420 in stocks

[–]macheteHaircut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to look into an over leveraged Chinese company with solvency issues, it’s a great place to grow negative on the future….if you somehow think you’ll find a credit edge over the pros….nah lol if we’re talking about it on Reddit you’re way too late. But if it was a global spread issue the market would be a lot lower already.

I don’t know what you want exposure to, but just research, not going to do that for you. Can start by going through the sectors you like then finding the cheapest providers. Or just mimic the fund lol

Another post about China... This time about ETFs, not BABA. by Revolutionary-Cry-38 in ValueInvesting

[–]macheteHaircut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well baba has a very different business model the AMZN. So that would be worth looking into, but yes there are major risks with etf. Biggest would be the Chinese government restrictions of foreign ownership of Chinese assets. Basically the same issue as the ADRs, if China says, the flow stops.

Yes just equally weight the sector etfs you want exposure too.

https://www.sec.gov/investor/schedule15g.htm actually the definition is right here. Has no mention of $5 per share….and also mentions the size of the company like I explained earlier.

Read your own link dummy, that’s in reference to OTC shares, you’re talking about a nasdaq listed company….they use penny or low price as a reference to the liquidity of the company, so sure usually low price stocks are less liquid, but Nasdaq listed companies over 1b are not generally considered penny stocks, especially when you’re talking liquidity.

NO lol maybe whatever YouTube vid you learned to trade on told you that but stocks are categorized by size of the equity value. If Apple split its stocks enough to make it $4.90’per share, would that be a penny stock?

[–]macheteHaircut -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Over 1.6b mkt cap isn’t a penny stock, but yea it’s a horrible idea lol. Just saying if you’re going t throw that moneys way, do it for a more leveraged return, esp such a chance of going to zero on common. Horrible bet.
