A good one: Low-information ‘investors’ rule the stock market — at least until they lose every cent https://www.marketwatch.com/story/lo...ent-2020-06-11 "Robinhood and day-trading newbies already are getting their comeuppance" 有点被老爸训话的感觉  踩狗屎 终究是不能当职业的  幸好 前面有Trump挡着，笑巴菲特 没两天piapia被打脸了  不过 这小编 充其量 也就今儿跌大了 放的马后炮， 要没跌 也只是憋着等看戏吧 In 1929, the story goes, Joseph P. Kennedy, patriarch of the Kennedy clan, went for a shoeshine not far from his Wall Street office. Kennedy was stunned when the shoeshine man gave stock tips to him, a leading trader. He immediately returned to his office and aggressively short-sold stocks, making a fortune in the Great Crash. This is probably an apocryphal tale that points to a larger truth: When even shoeshine men are so confident in their bullishness they give stock tips to the pros, it’s time to run for the hills. This week we’ve seen plenty of signs of this. As the Nasdaq Composite COMP, -5.26% hit all-time highs, briefly closing above 10,000 (nearly double its bubble top from the year 2000), and the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -6.89% and S&P 500 SPX, -5.89% both came within shouting distance of their February record peaks, day traders and newbies emerged, proclaiming their stock-picking genius. This testosterone-driven overconfidence — and research shows men are more reckless investors than women — has been most pronounced on Robinhood, the commission-free stock trading app preferred by millennials who can make all the trades they want at the tap of their thumbs. The tale of Robinhood According to Crunchbase, the Menlo Park, Calif.-based brokerage has raised $1.2 billion altogether. On the strength of three million new customers in the first quarter, it just raised $280 million in a late funding round led by Silicon Valley heavyweight Sequoia Capital. Robinhood has more than 10 million customers whose average age is 31. It has been having an outsized impact on stock trading. An analyst at Deutsche Bank recently examined Robinhood trading data and found that small investors were behind much of the recent buying in the stock market, so that what we used to call the “smart money” is “now chasing” the day traders. Talk about the caboose pulling the train! Gone are the days of COVID-19 lockdowns and fears of bodies piling up in emergency rooms. Long forgotten are the 40 million unemployed Americans, the 40% of businesses that may not reopen and the “long road” to recovery that a gloomy Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell laid out in his news conference Wednesday. And don’t even think about the new wave of coronavirus cases and hospitalizations we’re seeing in at least a dozen U.S. states. Oh, no, instead the day traders are sampling and remixing those hits of the 1930s, “We’re in the Money” and “Happy Days Are Here Again.” And these mini-Masters of the Universe aren’t just buying the Apples AAPL, -4.80% and Teslas TSLA, -5.09% of the world; they’re gobbling up stocks of bankrupt companies like Hertz HTZ, -18.25% and those whose businesses are in deep trouble, like American Airlines Group AAL, -15.51%. Both of those stocks and others beaten down badly in the coronavirus bear market have rallied sharply over the past few weeks. Better than Buffett? No doubt these very astute people have done deep dives into balance sheets, loan covenants and capital structures the way distressed debt and deep value investors do to make sure they’re protected on the downside. Oh, wait. Screw the guardrails. Damn the torpedoes. Traders on Robinhood and other instant-trading platforms are wagering hundreds maybe a few thousand bucks at a time and are beating the pants off the pros. One leading day trader who’s particularly proud of himself is Dave Portnoy, the successful founder of Barstool Sports, who thinks his prowess over the last, oh, six weeks or so, has made him better than … Warren Buffett. “I’m the new breed. I’m the new generation,” he crowed. “There’s nobody who can argue that Warren Buffett is better at the stock market than I am right now. I’m better than he is. That’s a fact.” This column has recently taken Buffett to task for his performance over the past decade. Three of his recent investments lost at least $7 billion, and he clearly sold airline stocks at the bottom. But really, Dave, really? He sounds like he’s auditioning to host a revival of “The Apprentice.” The day trading is definitely a sign of the times. As Anthony Denier, CEO of trading platform Webull, told the New York Post: “We’re all home. Some people are making bread, and some are saying, ‘Hey, how can I make the stock market work for me?’ And with the Fed [pumping money] into the markets, they’re thinking ‘How can I lose?’ ” How? Let me count the ways, starting with today, with the Dow down 1,862 points, the biggest drop since the dark days of March. Who knows if this is profit taking or whether we’re heading for another leg down in stocks? But some of us remember the 1990s, the days of theglobe.com and “boot your broker” and guys in their basements trading Yahoo stock dozens of times a day. You can “OK boomer” me all you want, but I’ve seen this movie many times and it never has a happy ending. |

对比了一下Robinhood和IB https://www.stockbrokers.com/compare...s-vs-robinhood RH就是做小交易的transaction fee便宜一丢丢外 一无是处， margin rate还那么高 Robinhood能招徕那么多年轻人 很有可能真不咋做信用评估了 一个没有收入的小伙子给开能透支75w的margin account 等于是引人犯罪吖。。。 |
