Obviously, that's a disengenuous argument. Many companies that don't pay dividends are (rightly) valued based on future growth and warnings estimates.

Check out Koyfin.com It's like bloomberg-light. It doesn't have great stock filtering, but is pretty good for financial data.

The fact that there is a lot of student debt does not mean that a meltdown is coming. The housing market crash was so significant because of the amount of leverage that was in the system (and how obfuscated it was). There leverage in the st

This is cool, but I'm having a lot of trouble reshaping the grids, and editing things that I've already created. For example, I can't click on certain elements, dragging to make something bigger actually makes it smaller, etc

I suppose that this is correct, but mostly because of the cost-benefit analysis. If labor is more expensive than automation, then the company will turn to automation. Automation is getting less expensive and labor is getting more expensive,

That's a fair point, but I'd imagine one objective of normalization is to avoid moving the market in a substantial way, whereas the explicit goal of QE was to lower rates. I woudln't expect the Fed's participation in the

Quantitative easing ended quite a while ago in the US, and I would expect that the long end of the yield curve these days is a pretty good metric for the market's expectation of long-term rates. Whether the curve has ever had predi

Ha, that's a bit harsh, no? Nice opinion piece, by the way, checks all the boxes for stoking outrage. Maybe landlords do serve a purpose? Maybe people who don't want the responsibility of owning a home can benefit from renting? Ma

Yes, but the advertising and image of the app is what people like me take issue with. They trivialize the other important parts of investing.

Investing should be done with care and thought. Due diligence is required. At best, Robinhood's app and advertising portrays investing as easy, and at worst they portray investing as something to be done on a whim. The act of buying a
