Hi, Can anyone recommend a broker that can trade convertible bonds? They are not available on Interactive Brokers. Thanks!

Which brokers do you use for bond trading? It seems many convertible bonds are not available at Interactive Brokers, for example 98426TAF3.

It's not about what he says. Everybody supportive of economic reform were pushed out. There will be fundamental changes in the country's direction going forward and nobody can stop him now.

I started running in 2015. Spent $1.99 on an APP called 5K Pacer that trains you to run 5K without stopping. 7 years and more than 10K miles later, I never felt better fitness wise. Nowadays, it's the first thing that starts most of my days...

Top China Strategist Sees Stocks in Limbo as GDP Growth Slows to 2% Hong is one of the top China analysts. Fired from his job because of his bearish view of Chinese market and banned from all social media. He is quite active on twitter since started "vacationing". Worth a follow IMO.

This involves a bunch of trades lasted about an hour so it's not a single mistake. The disturbing fact is that there is little transparency in the whole process. I only got an email informing the ruling without process/contact information for appeal, etc. The forfeited gain was mid five figure dollar amount. So if any entrepreneur lawyer familiar with Frankfurt Exchange is interested, feel free to contact me and I'm willing to split potential profit. Coincidently, I bought a very small position in PTPI last week when its price more than tripled after someone released fraudulent merger news. If you ask me this is a case that trades should be busted. When I asked my broker, they said NASDAQ decided that trades would stand.

I got a few of my trades cancelled by the Frankfurt Stock Exchange due to "erroneous price". The other party clearly wasn't paying attention to the company announcement. I guess that they found out afterward and contacted the exchange. The exchange ruled that the execution price was "erroneous" and had my broker cancel the trades without consulting me. Now IB is telling me there is nothing they can do. I guess under certain circumstances, a trade can be cancelled such as exchange system malfunction, etc. And I have been in the losing end of many trades when I make mistake: entering wrong price, forgetting to cancel a GTC order, especially with those illiquid penny stocks. So to me a mere mistake is not an excuse to cancel a legitimate executed trade. Did anyone here have similar experiences?

I'm using the same numbers. My calculation shows they have investments (SPOT, UMG, WMG) and cash worth about $2.96/share. So it's almost a net net stock for the biggest online music platform in China (>50% market share). But obviously there are macro risks I don't know how to value hence only a lottery ticket position for now.

I can't help buying some TME LEAPS. At current price, it's priced at half of its 2021 operating income excluding investments/cash. They spent $643m in stock repurchase in the first 3 quarters in 2021. In theory, they can buyback all floating shares with cash on balance sheet.

Chinese stonks are new Russia stocks.

The little chance of diplomacy reunification is gone now after what happened in Hong Kong.

Now do IB when they restrict your trading when they think you are "affiliated" with the issuer.

Did about 18% in 2021. Wasn't great compare to the overall market, but pretty happy about the result. Thanks to all the people posted ideas and analysis, leaned a ton from this board. Wish everyone much success in 2022!

WEB literally had two wives at the same time:)

IBKR's service is getting worse over the years. The trading restriction for OTC stocks because they think you are an affiliated shareholder is getting ridiculous: first they flag you as an affiliated and restricted the trading; then only the compliance personnel can remove the restriction (not the service guy you get on the phone); and when you submit a ticket you are ignored; at last when the restriction is removed, it's only for two weeks and you need to repeat the steps again!

About 16%. Most of my winners are special events and deep value such as FENG. I'm very happy with the return especially considering how 2020 unfolded for many people around the world. John, Really sorry for your loss! Lastly wish everyone on this board a healthy and happy 2021!

Why do people think that public skools students are more heterogenous and represent "real" world? At least where I live (suburban New York area), all good school districts have mostly high income families. At least their attitudes toward education are pretty similar.

I like chance for Meituan (3690.HK). Already over $200b market cap, the third biggest technology company behind BABA and Tecent. Also Tecent owns 20% of it.

Good luck! Really enjoyed your contribution!

Job title/description: Product/Risk Manager Industry you work in: Insurance City and Country: NJ I worked from home from time to time before. Prior to COVID, my group were already moving to partial WFH arrangements with free addressing workstations in office. Most of my colleagues will WFH 3 days a week. My company invested heavily in technology, such as virtual desktop, easy plugin docking stations, double monitors at home, etc. The experiences have been seamless and the only difference is I plug in my laptop downstairs at home rather than going to a cubicle in office. So far, I haven't noticed any productivity differences when all my colleagues are working from home. That said, I'm not looking to climb corporate ladder so not seeing people is not an issue. I can see why someone wanting to advance career would want to spend more time in office.

This clearly shows virus was not wide spread in US in Jan 2020:

What happened to this? Opened at $4.99 then traded as high as $134/share! Short squeeze?
