Stocks

Info: I'm European and wish to put most of my savings from my full-time job into stocks similar to S&P 500 and VanEck Semiconductor. I'm also a total newbie in this area, so some beginner tips would be greatly appreciated. :3

Do i get it right on the attached image? IMO it shows US bond yield inverted curve and the subsequent economic recessions (which follows this market indicator) on all time chart. sources:

According to https://www.currentmarketvaluation.com/ the market is overvalued to strongly overvalued, so i am wondering if this crisis, that started in 2021/2022 is a longer crisis, which not yet ended and the overvalued stock price will fall down again? But more importantly, if I have misunderstood something wrong, please explain why.

I am interested in what this group thinks will happen

ASML is the only company that produces equipment needed to make the most sophisticated semiconductors, and demand for its products is a bellwether for the industry’s health.

I was holding RCL long-term during the pandemic and sold off after their last earnings report (at several points higher). Regretting that now as it keeps going up up and up.

Bought CCL for cheap before earnings and it's looking good.

Oil is down, record bookings. Really the only negative is the debt the industry acquired and high interest rates. But they're paying down the debt, profitable again, interest rates will go down.

The whole industry is poised well.

With the GTA 6 announcement coming in December, I imagine now's a great time to invest in TTWO. However, instead of risking my savings, I just want to invest the tiny amount of crypto I get from mining.

I looked into Exness, but that unfortunately requires a photo of my ID and proof of my address, neither of which is something I feel comfortable giving to a company.

Are there any stock exchanges that could work for me?

Damn, so no more novelty Hess trucks for sale around the holidays. I'm gonna miss those. https://youtu.be/iUCm2KHN_Ds?t=15

With SPY's average ~5% return rate, does it make sense to invest in companies like SJT, MPW, PXD, etc that have over 10% dividends? Companies like ORC which have like 18% dividend, but the underlying stock price continues to fall more that 18% are traps sure, but SJT, MPW, PXD and others that have a decent track record of not losing much (or even gaining) value seem like good investments.

Am I missing something?

Yes, live.

​

I've looked for this for a while and didn't find much. Being a stubborn ass (The Boondocks voice) I kept looking until I got it down. There are trackers for the options you've sold, call and put screeners, calculators to avoid CSP risk, holdings, and a singular location for cost basis so you don't do something dumb like Idk sell SPCE CCs at $20 when your cost basis is $22 but you thought it was $18. I definitely didn't do that.

Google Sheet

You'll need to add a custom script:

1. Tools
2. Script Editor
3. Add file
4. Name it SAMPLE
5. Paste this into it:

The code is thanks to tanaike

Code source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64437503/importxml-not-producing-correct-values

function SAMPLE(url) {
  const res = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, {muteHttpExceptions: true});
  const tables = [...res.getContentText().matchAll(/(<table[\w\s\S]+?<\/table>)/g)];
  if (tables.length < 2) return "No tables. Please confirm URL again.";
  const values = tables.reduce((ar, [,table]) => {
    if (table) {
      const root = XmlService.parse(table).getRootElement();
      const temp = root.getChild("tbody", root.getNamespace()).getChildren().map(e => e.getChildren().map(f => isNaN(f.getValue()) ? f.getValue() : Number(f.getValue())));
      ar = ar.concat(temp);
    }
    return ar;
  }, []);
  return values[0].map((_, i) => values.map(r => r[i]));
}

The result: It returns a table, so you need to use INDEX with it in order to point to a specific row/column. The method itself is SAMPLE, which takes a URL and returns a table. So you'll need to use Concatenate in order to make up the URL for a Yahoo link.

Google Sheet function:

=INDEX(SAMPLE(CONCATENATE("https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/", $A7, RIGHT(YEAR($E7), 2), TEXT(MONTH($E7), "00"), TEXT(DAY($E7),"00"), IF(B7 = "PUT", "P", "C"), SUBSTITUTE(TEXT($M7,"00000.000"), ".", ""), "?p=", $A7, RIGHT(YEAR($E7), 2), TEXT(MONTH($E7), "00"), TEXT(DAY($E7),"00"), "C", SUBSTITUTE(TEXT($M7,"00000.000"), ".", ""))), 2, 3) 

​

Known issues:

1. Loading from mobile is not reliable. You may have to erase the cell and undo, or reload, or get on a laptop/desktop.
2. Sorting recalculates the numbers and sometimes it stops working. I just don't sort anymore, but it'll eventually fix itself.
3. It doesn't calculate if you change values. Just erase the cell and undo, it'll do it correctly.
4. Not all options are available on Yahoo, especially if you're looking 30+ days.

P.S. Yahoo dev: If you're seeing this, please let me be. This was already hard enough to put together. Plz.
