>How do I know if my REIT stock will get wrecked as well?

It comes down to what's in it. Non-mortgage REITs aren't bothered by rate cuts, but the mortgage bonds that mREITs hold will be hit by waves of refinancing with significant rate reductions, and so they lose the value of whatever cashflow they would have gotten from the interest payments between the end of the loan and the re-fi date. Even if they use the money from the paid-off loan principal to buy new mortgage bonds, they're still buying securities with lower yield and therefore lower value, so the net result is that their book value and FFO suffers.

If you want to keep exposure to the residential sector, apartment REITs (called 'multifamily homes') aren't going to be harmed by lower rates, because people don't (or shouldn't) pay interest on rent.

Then there are mall REITs. I wouldn't want to own these, because I'm assured that retail is quickly dying. My local mall usually seems pretty crowed, though numbers-wise that's the exception. In any case, an economic downturn could hurt consumer discretionary spending, which could see malls lose tenants and thus mall REIts loose FFO.

Industrial REITs may seem like a bad idea, but because they have a lot of commercial spaces used for shipping and E-commerce, a lot of them have done quite well recent, and could continue to do well. Same problem with consumer discretionary spending, with the caveat that a lot of industrial REIT customers run multiple shifts and may cut shifts but still be able to make rent. The inclusion of other commercial spaces may also offer a hedge.

Beyond that, you have bizarre specialized REITs. These are my favorite, because fuck it.

There are cell tower REITs, which own cell phone tower properties. These are probably strongly defensive, given that people are unlikely to stop using their cell phones (and ObamaPhones provide hedge against recession). They also have decent growth intentional, maybe, with the whole 5G thing.

Then you have healthcare REITs, which are probably reasonably defensive.

Data Center REITs own data centers. This is obviously a growth sector, but they're at risk of getting hit by any kind of major collapse in tech, but most companies of all types use data center services, so the downside is limited.

One of my personal favorites is DEA, which owns specalized facilities rented on a long-term basis by the Federal Government. I probably don't need to explain why that's so safe, even if it only yields 5%.

CoreCivic is a Prison REIT, which gives you all kinds political liability, given that they work with ICE. Most states are short prison capacity, so it's probably no as unstable as it looks. The need to lock up nigs isn't likely to to go anywhere, but the roller coaster is there. The same is true of other prison REITS.

Oil pipeline REITs have the obvious risks of political vulnerability to reductions in energy sector profitability. Farmland REITs probably have all kinds of complex factors effecting them that I don't understand, so won't comment on them. Same with timberland REITs.

TL;DR: what do you own, and what does it own?

>Japanese finance minister Taro Aso said on Tuesday that he was monitoring the currency "with a sense of urgency." More Yen gains will be a problem for Japanese monetary policy which is already dealing with extremely low inflation even after many years of extraordinary stimulus. A stronger Yen will only depress imported inflation further.

>Merck makes money because Keytruda is a miracle drug

immunooncology is an important advance in the treatment of cancer, and Keytruda is the face of it, but 5 year overall survival in Keytruda patients is still 23.2% in patients who haven't been treated for cancer before and 15.5% in patients who have had other cancer treatments before (it's lower in this population because many of them are patients who have failed to respond to those other treatments), using NSCLC as an example
merck is doing combination trials with many different companies in an attempt to find drugs that can make keytruda more effective when used in combination therapy, GALT being one of them
galectin-3 is an essential part of the mechanism through which tumors hide themselves from the immune system, and inhibiting it could greatly boost the efficacy of Keytruda by making it easier for the immune system to find and kill tumors

some key evidence of the efficacy of GALT's drug and the mechanism of action itself (galectin-3 inhibition) is the finding that it significantly suppressed MDSCs (another key part of how tumors hide themselves from the immune system) in patients who were treated with it during their Keytruda combo trial

I know you don't know or care about this at all, but it is very much relevant

Some impressive work. It's absolutely true that the vast majority of people aren't rational in their investment portfolio. Most people don't look at earnings, debt ratios, etc etc, they invest based upon hype, the herd mentality. This is not a Marxist revelation.

What's missing here is that during times of crisis in Capitalism, the population takes the liberty of installing social safety nets from the government in order to protect itself from the pitfalls of the market in the future. The only thing that will bring about the destruction of capitalism is the destruction of the institutions that support it: which ironically are just as much governmental in the West as they are private.

Which brings us back to the dollar, since the confidence in one's government is linked to a confidence in one's currency.

In essence: people (both inside the country and out) need to lose faith in the national currency itself, because as long as there is King Dollar there will be an ability of the Federal Reserve or the Federal Government to create zombie firms via the expansion of the monetary supply, or even fund the social safety nets characteristic of Western governments.

What's coming in the next recession will be a test for the dollar. It's either going be massive deflation or massive inflation.

What happens after that will depend on politics.

The diamond water paradox is only a paradox if you come at value from the belief that value IS just subjective. To adam smith, who first mentioned it, the answer was obvious. A diamond has more value because, on average, it is much harder to obtain. Water, which is much more valuable to us in a practical sense, is worth much less because it takes much less labor to obtain on average.

There is a lot of possibility for healthcare partnerships with the wearables, and boomers love simple tech that “just works” and looks expensive, so Apple could be making bucks off of monitoring their vitals. Maybe even partner with insurance companies to incentivize better self-care and lifestyle changes.

The TV thing could be VERY good as well. I’m still backing Disney, but if Apple goes after Roku instead, they could make a killing. Hell, they will still make a killing as one of the lesser streaming companies. With all that cash on hand, maybe even buyout Netflix when it becomes desperate.

Periods of deflation have immediately preceded periods of mass inflation.

My theory is that inflation is more of a phenomenon in external actors recognizing the value of the system of the currency itself.

The value of the dollar isn't determined by the numbers of dollars in the system, but the system itself and how it rewards external participants in that system.

Algos don't understand human nuances, like Trump's constant back and forth. Steven Mnuchin would certainly understand the limits of these algorithms and what makes them tick.

Regarding how much you lose, it depends on your history with the brokerage and job (if you're a pro). Entry level margin accounts are usually 50/50 cash/margin. That means the brokerage will match the amount of money in your account 1/1. In exchange you have a liquidation point of 50%. If your holdings value and cash total exceed a drawdown of 50%, you get margin called, must sell all holdings. You have then lost 100% of the cash you started with.

Too many variables. I have lost so much fucking money, but I always keep some in an index fund (at least 10k) and that has served me well. Buying ETFs is probably a good idea, safer than trying to shoot the moon with options or allocating a lot to any individual company through stock picking. You might want to try it, but you will end up paying your “tuition” sooner or later. The verdict is still unclear on whether or not the lesson is worth the price of admission.

Like the stock market except open 24 hours 5 days a week. Trillions of dollars in volume daily. Can buy/sell pairs more easily and also using margin. Very risky stuff btw so definitely start with a demo account. Potential is extremely high. Know someone who makes 10-20k a week. I have personally seen this guy make 50k in 2 trades.
