What was your favourite TikTok? And is there anything you think is worth adding to the reviews?

[@roaringfork]

Don't get financial advise from people born in 2005.

[@connor8018]

I'll add that the matched amount of money on the 401(k) basically doubles your return on the percentages. So even if the mutual fund you're invested in only gets 3 percent you're still getting essentially a 6% return on your original investment from the stock market. It's relatively minor compared to the 100% return you pointed out from the company matching though, which is the main benefit. Also it probably doesn't fit in this video but more information about a 401(k) would be helpful. At least just on the tax advantages and disadvantages even if it's relatively simple. Or just a video on different types of retirement accounts in general and how they work and what to look for in deciding to use one. I really appreciate your videos. A lot of other channels feel like the creator is telling you what to do.

That's true, besides, sharing the method defeats its whole purpose, because once enough people start using the same method, it'll simply no longer work. Actual successful investors and brokers are constantly mixing up their strategies because markets are constantly changing, and knowing which strategies work at a given moment takes a lot of knowledge.

[@josh7297]

Hedge fund manager here. I never start my stock research by analyzing the charts. But, you cannot be naive and say that stocks always stick to their fundamental values. Just like any other market, the stock market is driven by fear, emotion and patterns. I use TA as a tool to help me enter/exit a position and determine a trend in a market price direction. Make no mistake, when stocks go up, on average, more people are willing to buy it. When stocks go down, on average, more people are willing to sell it.

How can it be astrology, how can you call BS, when there are millions of people funneling billions of dollars into different equities or currencies based on patterns and support an resistance levels. If 50,000 people see something bouncing at support, and they all buy because buy at support sell at resistance, then it is going to rise. It’s a positive feedback loop. It’s real. Nobody cares about your recycled EBITDA multiples and they don’t affect anything anymore.

[@Supatrader]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@vanyac6448]

8:55 - That employer matching is key. That alone is enough to compensate for, like, 40 years worth of inflation (assuming an annualized 2% rate).

[@jeffwells641]

At worst it's a 50%-100% return on your investment, even if the stock averages 0% with inflation. Considering these mutual funds tend to average more like 5% even with bad inflation, it's just a no brainer. Honestly, the only reason I can think of not to max out your 401k is if you have a specific plan for that money. You're going to start a business or buy property or something like that. Otherwise a 401k is one of the best investments you can possibly make.

[@exantiuse497]

@Jeff Wells It isn't as simple as you make it out to be. I'm not American so I don't fully understand how the 401k system works, what are the returns of the funds etc, but I know the effective growth rate of a fund (after the fees etc) is extremely important. Here's the math: If we invest 10,000 a year through 401k on funds that have an average return of 5% a year after fees (as you suggested), and the employer matches it making it effectively 20k a year, we have 1,48 million after 30 years. If we instead invest it in a low-fee index fund that has an effective growth rate of 10% a year (the historical growth rate of the US stock market) we have 1,7 million after the same time period, a difference of almost 20%. If we adjust for inflation, assuming inflation averages at 2% annually making the actual growth of the funds 3% and 8% respectively, the 401k has us at 1.02 million and the index fund at 1.32 million (today's dollar equivalent), a difference of 30% I'm not saying the 401k is bad, as I don't know the actual rates of growth of the funds, this was just a hypothetical example of how investing on your 401k can be worse than just investing in an index depending on the rate of return for the two. You have to know the specifics to make the decision Of course 401k also has the advantage that the "carrot" of the employer matching your investment will make people that would normally be less likely to invest start investing

[@TrapZeroEX]

@@exantiuse497 That's why people should max out their IRAs and HSAs first. They can add cheap index funds to them. First step would be to contribute to the match on the 401k, next max out the IRA/HSA, and then continue contributing to the 401k.

[@jeffwells641]

@@exantiuse497 What matters here isn't the growth rate of the fund (that's important, but it's not the most important thing here). What matters is the employer matching. Most 401k's have employer fund matching, typically up to 6%, because employers get a tax break for doing this (and it stops at 6%, which is why they stop there). A really good matching scheme is 1 for 1, that is, if I make $50k a year, and I put in 6% of my paycheck (pre-tax), or $3k, into my 401k, my employer also puts $3k into my 401k. That's an instant 100% return of my money. That's worth almost 10 years of returns at 10%, and you get it instantly. Even if the fund is garbage (they aren't, they are typically well established mutual funds that return 5-10% depending on how aggressive you choose to go with your fund options). More typically employers do a 2 to 1 match instead of a 1 to 1 match. That is if I put in 6% of my paycheck into a 401k, my employer will put in 3%. So to get the full employer match I need to put in 12% ($6k) to get the full 6%($3k). Still, that gets you an instant 50% return on your investment no matter how good or bad the fund is (and again, they're typically pretty decent). Again, that's 5 years worth of market returns instantly. That's freaking huge. And these funds aren't garbage. They are safe, well established long term investments that are perfect for long-term retirement investing.

@@maurods3151 Do they? I suppose their money comes from selling courses on their "methods" or not relying on technical analysis only

[@jam-hu]

@@hardwarefromthegarbage3446 because it is statistically unlikely that they would all fail. Just like the people who win the jackpot twice in the lottery it is simply luck. It is likely, that out of the thousands of active traders that some will get lucky and beat the market. The problem is that there is no way of knowing beforehand which ones will get lucky.

[@davidwebb2318]

@@maurods3151 The short answer is that 99% of them don't manage to be profitable. Even a random stock selection process will make money sometimes. As they reinvest everything in what is essentially a random process eventually they will have everything in investments that drops like a stone. They might be successful for 5, 10 or 15 years by pure luck. The problem comes when you decide to follow what they do on the last day of year 15 and year 16 is when their luck runs out, and you lose your life savings following their astrology charts.

[@earlyreefer]

more level headed, sensible content from The Plain Bagel. Always great stuff!

[@hermdude]

I would want to point out that unlike astrology and coin-flipping, because a lot of people believe in technical analysis, it results in a self-fulfilling prophecy such that if a lot of people are making a decision that the price is going up, they'll bid up the price, eventually increasing the price itself. Of course, the catch is that different people would see different patterns within the same chart, so it becomes a tug of war between those who thinks that the price would go up versus the price going down. And then there's the market makers who would profit either way from market participation. As an old adage says, don't go and dig for gold yourself, go sell shovels instead.

[@electricant55]

Another problem is that algorithmic traders probably already beat you to the punch and the analysis is now priced in

[@finsimple4396]

If this were the case the research would back that point, but it doesn't. The truth is there are too many market participants with many different strategies, AUM sizes, and opinions which create little market inefficiencies or random behaviour in stock prices. Even algorithmic traders don't, they mostly exploit small market inefficiencies faster than others such as HFT's, mean reversion, scalping, market making, arbitrage, etc. It would be self-fulfilling if the few who did it held enough weight to move markets, but then they wouldn't have the liquidity to trade it comfortably, which is a paradox.

Great video as always! 2:33 There have been some studies on stock splits that have shown there to be some degree of excess returns associated them (Ikenberry, Rakine, and Stice in the mid-90's I think were some of the first to look into this phenomenon). Some explanations offered by authors of these papers suggest its based on a signaling (i.e., management expects strong fundamental performance and completing a stock split signals this to the market). I would intuit that it's related to the momentum factor (i.e., a stock that now has a high per-share price got that way through strong recent performance). Either way, there is at least some evidence that buying recent stock splits might have some plausibility, but whether those excess returns survive transaction costs is another story. 5:30 This video came out too early $TSLA

"Aggresively wrong" nice, I learnt a new phrase

[@CaedenV]

I've seen that hyper aggressive anti 401k dude before... And I think his idea is that if you take your full paycheck and use it immediately for your own education, or starting your own business then you can "easially" outperform the market. As someone who has started and stopped 3 personal small businesses... Yeah... There is also a super good chance to loose your entire business or if you are lucky break even. It's a bit of a gamble. Compare that to a 401k that gives an instant 100% growth with an employer match, and lowering your income tax bracket, and no taxes on growth... Yeah... Even at 1% growth that starts to look pretty OK lol. And that you are more likely to net 7% growth after inflation makes your 401k look pretty awesome. More important is that for most people it isn't an either/or situation. You can hold down a day job and take advantage of a 401k match, and start something productive on the side. And that side thing can be a business, or developing IP for royalties, or any number of other things.

Thanks for this. I know some of them go full Loco but I can't refute them in a more systematic way.

Mr Bagel would make a good lecturer He systematically knows how to break down complex theories into simple ones without coming off as someone who knows more than u Those relatable qualities r what separate good lecturers from the bad ones n I can promise u that the bad out weigh the good most of the time

[@sergdingle4616]

Not from this video buy my favourite sentence is "options are technically like a starting point" love it.

[@MarceloAbans]

@4:33 Great movie called Pi, where a man supposedly figures out the pattern and then a decent into madness.

TA is the astrology of finance, perfect description.

Great Information..better Channel

[@nicolashofmann2956]

Fractional shares are not a thing everywhere. Her in Germany you can get those only via a savings plan, indiviual buys work only for full shares of a stock.

[@DiscipleSteven]

I used to live in the US and had a 401k. I think it does depend on the employer but I had some great index and mutual funds available to me, include an S&P 500 index fund. I didnt have a lot there and eventually pulled it out to add to emergency fund here in Canada but it was pretty good for me.

[@mixedbagclips2511]

Hey that guy that made those calls at the TOP is a good counter signal. 😂

[@GunnShotVisuals]

"Technicals in this kind of fashion really are the astrology of finance" 🤣🤣🤣 as someone who has my series 7 stock brokers license this is so accurate and hilarious - Never truly understood how these made any sense to trust 🤣
