Technology Has Made Trading More Accessible Than Ever – Get The Edge You Need To Potentially Make Profits With Morningstar Data Through Robinhood Gold

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga The 21st century has witnessed a dramatic shift when it comes to trading and investing. Gone are the days of only the wealthy investing through management firms and funds that are largely inaccessible. Today, the world of trading has opened up thanks to the advent of modern technology. Then the global pandemic hit and retail trading has only skyrocketed. During the pandemic, interest in the stock market soared, and meme stocks garnered national attention. Retail investors are taking the world by storm. But this evolution begs the question that if everyone can invest in the market now, what differentiates a good trader from an average or uninformed one? The answer includes many factors, but one is undeniably critical – credible research and data analysis. Luckily for investors, there are tools like Morningstar that provide unbiased research and ratings on various investment products like stocks and ETFs. The popular trading app Robinhood provides access to NASDAQ Level 2 data and Morningstar with its Robinhood Gold subscription platform. Not to mention Robinhood Gold is less than $10/month with all associated subscription fees; in comparison, if you were to only get a Morningstar subscription, it is typically $249/year. In addition to access to valuable insights with Morningstar and NASDAQ Level 2 data, Robinhood Gold subscribers have the opportunity to earn a 5% annual percentage yield (APY) on uninvested brokerage cash with the cash sweep program. This means that any cash sitting idle in your brokerage account will be automatically swept into a program that earns you interest. This new rate is 8x higher than the national average savings rate – based on data from Bankrate as of March 1, 2024. In other words, you can earn money while you sleep. Robinhood Gold also offers margin investing at a lower rate of 8% with the first $1,000 of margin borrowing being interest-free, which allows eligible users to borrow funds and increase their potential returns on investments. Non-subscribers pay a higher margin rate of 12%. Additionally, Robinhood Gold subscribers can even receive a 3% IRA match on eligible contributions to their Robinhood IRA accounts. Apart from margin investing, Robinhood Gold provides a range of advanced tools and benefits that enhance an individual's investing experience. These include higher interest rates on uninvested cash, instant deposits, access to professional research and market data and a suite of features catering to both short-term investments and long-term retirement planning. For people who want a holistic experience on all things trading, Robinhood Gold seems to have a full suite of resources readily available. Robinhood Gold is also releasing a Robinhood Gold credit card that is exclusive to Gold subscribers with 3% cash back across the board. To join the waitlist, click here.

Program banks pay interest on your swept cash, minus any fees paid to Robinhood. As of November 15, 2023, the Annual Percentage Yield (APY) that you will receive is 5% for Robinhood Gold members. Terms apply. The APY might change at any time at the program banks' discretion. Additionally, any fees Robinhood receives may vary and is subject to change. Neither Robinhood Financial LLC nor any of its affiliates are banks. Bigger instant deposits are only available if your instant deposit status is in good standing. Margin investing involves the risk of greater investment losses. Before using margin, customers must determine whether this type of strategy is right for them given their investment objectives and risk tolerance. For margin enabled customers, to earn interest through the cash sweep program, a cash balance is needed. If you have a margin balance, there is no cash balance to earn interest. Limitations apply to the retirement match and terms apply to IRAs. 3% match requires Robinhood Gold for 1 year from the date of first 3% match. Must keep Robinhood IRA for 5 years.

CSJ Consulting Limited, HSBC, and Deutsche Bank Consider Potential Collaboration on Innovative Bond Bridging Electronic Trading Platform

CSJ Consulting

In a significant move aimed at addressing long-standing challenges in the bond bridging market, CSJ Consulting Limited, in collaboration with HSBC and Deutsche Bank, is considering a potential collaboration to develop and implement a pioneering electronic trading platform. This initiative underscores a deep commitment to improving market efficiency and accessibility for institutional investors. The proposed electronic trading platform is designed to bring much-needed transparency and efficiency to the bond market, which has historically been plagued by complexity and a lack of visibility. By integrating advanced technologies such as state-of-the-art algorithms, AI-driven analytics, and real-time data processing capabilities, the platform aims to simplify and enhance the trading process, making it more user-friendly and cost-effective. Joining this transformative effort are five renowned financial institutions: ING, Bank of Ireland, Barclays, Citigroup, and UBS. Their interest in potentially participating underscores the industry's recognition of the need for innovation and the potential impact of this project. These institutions bring additional expertise, resources, and market influence, which are crucial for the platform's success. The bond market's current inefficiencies often result in higher costs and longer transaction times. This new platform aims to streamline these processes, offering real-time pricing data, instant trade execution, and improved liquidity. By reducing the time and effort required to execute bond trades, the platform will make it easier for traders to navigate the market and make informed decisions. A key feature of the platform will be the use of advanced machine learning algorithms to analyze market data and predict bond price movements. This capability will provide traders with deeper insights and enable them to execute trades at the most opportune times. Additionally, the integration of blockchain technology will enhance security and ensure the integrity of transaction records, addressing common concerns about data reliability and safety. Richard Martin Hill, Executive Client Advisor, and Charles Brooks, Senior Advisor, both from CSJ Consulting Limited, will be integral to the platform's potential development. Their combined expertise and deep understanding of market dynamics will be invaluable in shaping a platform that meets the needs of modern bond traders. The potential collaboration between CSJ Consulting Limited, HSBC, Deutsche Bank, and the additional institutions represents a collective effort to push the boundaries of what's possible in bond trading. CSJ Consulting Limited will lead the platform's potential development and implementation, leveraging its extensive experience in financial technology solutions. Meanwhile, HSBC, Deutsche Bank, and the other institutions will contribute valuable market insights and ensure compliance with regulatory standards. The introduction of this electronic trading platform is expected to have a profound impact on the bond market.

Golden Triangle Ventures’ ‘Destino Ranch’ Set To Unlock Significant Shareholder Value

RazorPitch - GTVH

The leisure and recreational industry seems poised for a stellar recovery after bearing the brunt of the COVID-19 outbreak, which caused sector revenue to decline substantially. That recovery is evident by the fact that the Invesco Leisure and Entertainment ETF (NYSEARCA:PEJ) is up over 27% over the past six months alone compared to the S&P 500, which is up only 21.7% over the same timeframe. According to The Business Research Company, the arts, entertainment, and recreation sector had a combined annual revenue of about $265 billion in the US alone but is highly fragmented, creating highly profitable opportunities for companies like Golden Triangle Ventures, Inc (OTC:GTVH). Golden Triangle Ventures, Inc (OTC:GTVH) is a multifaceted consulting company pursuing opportunities in the Health, Entertainment and Technology sectors. It also has other additional projects under development that will provide synergistic value to these divisions. Essentially, GTVH seeks to purchase, acquire, and/or joint venture with established entities that management can help assist and develop into unique opportunities. In order to capitalize on the burgeoning opportunity in the leisure and recreational sector, GTVH recently announced a number of exciting corporate developments. First, Lavish Entertainment, GTVH’s wholly owned subsidiary, has developed a comprehensive four-pillar business model that will be a critical component in advancing its mission to create an industry leading entertainment business. For some background, Lavish Entertainment is a Las Vegas-based company that began operations back in 2017 with a vision of becoming nationally recognized in concert production. It has successfully organized some of the most exciting electronic dance music concerts in Las Vegas. Lavish Entertainment’s new model encompasses the following key foundational elements: logistics, staffing, equipment, and production. These pillars were meticulously identified and organized to complement each other and ensure seamless operations across all facets of the company. Second, and what has been getting investors most excited about the company, is that GTVH recently announced the execution of an agreement to acquire approximately 70 acres of prime and improved land for its Destino Ranch ( www.DestinoRanch.com ) project, a flagship venture under its entertainment division. Located strategically in Arizona, this achievement marks a significant milestone for Golden Triangle Ventures. The Destino Ranch project is planned as a multifaceted destination center set to redefine entertainment and hospitality in the region while being sustainable. Ultimately, it will be a destination where nature and technology combine to create unforgettable experiences. Destino Ranch intends to become an international destination that rivals Coachella and other well-known festival sites. With access to nearly 22,000 visitors traveling through the area per day, the location offers an appealing opportunity to become a modern art and music festival mecca. Destino will complement the beautiful natural attributes of the Mojave Desert with an immersive, world-class art installation gallery with rotating exhibits, and a large-scale music venue with state-of-the-art staging and production. As you can see below, Destino is uniquely located on the highly traveled State Route 93 artery between Las Vegas and Phoenix, which is why it would be so compelling for even organizers. The significantly improved property currently includes perimeter fencing, graded roads, solar power systems, large permanent structures, multiple garden areas with nutrient-rich organic soil, a well, a septic system, complete irrigation systems for all the trees, security cameras, and heavy equipment for upkeep and development. These upgrades represent a substantial investment totaling nearly $6 million, which has turned this once-vacant land into a beautiful oasis that provides the initial infrastructure needed to begin the development of Destino Ranch. Steffan Dalsgaard, CEO of Golden Triangle Ventures, stated, "This marks a significant step forward in our vision to create a one-of-a-kind destination that celebrates art, music, and entertainment year-round. Our entire team is beyond confident in our ability to bring this project to life, and our plan is coming closer to reality every day." Just to put the opportunity here in better context, consider this: Billboard reports that Coachella earned more than $114 million in profits in 2017, the first reoccurring festival to break the $100 million mark in a single year. Although that amount is still slightly below the highest-grossing festival of all time—2016's two-weekend Desert Trip, which earned more than $160 million — Coachella has again claimed the top spot among profitable reoccurring festivals, a distinction it has earned each year since 2011. And as the festival's popularity has grown, so has its profit — seven-fold since 2007. In 2007, Coachella earned $16 million when it was still a one-weekend deal. After moving the celebration to two weekends in 2012, the festival earned $47.3 million. At the moment, GTVH has a market capitalization of about $4 million, which implies that even if it only manages to capture 10% of Coachella’s market share, it would be able to unlock substantial shareholder value. Golden Triangle Ventures is actively working to prepare a series of internal production events and will secure bookings for showcasing beginning in Q4 of 2024, further solidifying Destino Ranch's position as a premier entertainment destination. This project is one of Lavish’s largest undertakings and will be managed by GTVH’s newest acquisition, ABI Create, a premier event management and production firm. ABI will maximize the integrated synergy of the four pillars to amplify the development of Destino Ranch and will utilize the project to showcase the newly formed strategic model. ABI Create ( www.ABICreate.com ) was founded in 2015 by Marco Antonio Moreno, who was recently appointed as the new president and COO of Lavish Entertainment. ABI has delivered high-quality productions for a range of large-scale installations at major music festivals, sporting events, and conventions across the United States. Notable projects include collaborations with the NFL Super Bowl, San Diego and New York Comic Con, EDC and Camp EDC, Bonnaroo Music Festival, the Waste Management Phoenix Open, Arnold Palmer Invitational, Burning Man, and many more. For investors who may still be wondering whether this is the right time to get back into leisure and recreational stocks, MSGE’s recent earnings calls reaffirm the outlook of the broader industry. For instance, in the recently reported 2Q24 results, MSGE brought in $403 million, beating consensus expectations of $385 million. This strong growth was attributed to an increase in the number of concerts held at the company’s venue compared to the similar period last year and higher per-event revenues. Management noted that compared to 2Q23 concert bookings for 1H25 at the Garden were ahead by a fairly strong double-digit percentage, and it appears this trend would persist even when looking farther ahead into FY25. In addition to that, the company revealed that four of its venues were on track to exceed initial expectations for concerts this year, and that includes ‘The Garden', where the company is on track to set a new record for the number of concert bookings on a full year basis. And in Q3, the company hosted more than 1.5 million guests at over 200 live events across its portfolio of venues. More importantly, GTVH has reaffirmed its dedication to continuously enhancing shareholder value as the company scales its operations. That is why the company recently announced a pivotal agreement with T&K Zarro, LLC, managed by Tom Zarro, T&K Zarro president and the largest note holder in GTVH. Under this landmark agreement, T&K Zarro, LLC has committed to a structured and disciplined sale of GTVH stock, limiting sales to no more than 10% of the daily trading volume on any given day. Additionally, T&K Zarro has agreed to a 6-month moratorium on all interest accruals within its convertible debentures held in GTVH. This moratorium period is designed to provide GTVH with the necessary time to optimize its operations and capitalize on growth opportunities. Disclaimers: RazorPitch Inc.

Shedding Light on Cystic Fibrosis

YourUpdateTV

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rare, progressive, and genetic disease that currently affects about 40,000 people in the United States. CF is the result of a defective gene, inherited from each parent, and the disease can impact people of all races and ethnicities. Recently, KC White, Board Chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the disease, her personal journey, and how the Foundation is helping progress care and treatment options. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/8wj8u0JEqLU CF is a life-shortening disease that prevents our bodies from clearing mucus. This can lead to lung infections, poor nutrition, lung disease, and a host of unique challenges that can impact every aspect of a person’s life. When it was first discovered, it was considered a fatal pediatric disease. But due to transformative advancements in treatments and high-quality care, the life-expectancy for someone born with CF today is 56. While that number is climbing there is still a long way to go and unfortunately, not all people with CF equally benefit from this progress. KC White was elected chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Board of Trustees in 2022 after serving on the Board since 2005. Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at age 3, White has been a committed volunteer and inspiring advocate for the Foundation since childhood and is the first person with CF to serve as board chair. When she was diagnosed, she wasn’t expected to live past high school age, but her family refused to accept that fate, which prompted their dedication to the Foundation’s work. Because of recent treatments known as modulators, about 90% of the CF population (including KC) experienced an incredible transformation in their health. With this though, comes navigating unplanned challenges including careers, finances, family, and more. In addition to fueling the research, particularly in genetic therapies, that will lead to transformative treatments for the entire CF population, the CF Foundation works to support the CF community in all aspects of their lives through support programs and fostering connection opportunities. The CF Foundation is committed to finding a cure and providing all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives. The Foundation is aggressively funding research and drug development, advancing high-quality, specialized care, and partnering with and advocating for the CF community. For more information, visit CFF.ORG About KC White KC White was elected chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Board of Trustees in 2022 after serving on the Board since 2005. Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at age 3, White has been a committed volunteer and inspiring advocate for the Foundation since childhood, speaking at her first Foundation event when she was only 9 years old. She is the first person with CF to serve as board chair. White received her Master of Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania in 2022 and currently serves as an assistant instructor in the program. She is also the Head Varsity Women’s Lacrosse coach for the Chagrin Falls, Ohio, Tigers. She and her husband, Justin, have one son, Mac. About the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a donor-supported nonprofit organization leading the relentless pursuit of a cure for cystic fibrosis. The Foundation is committed to providing all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives by funding research and drug development, advancing high-quality, specialized care, and partnering with and advocating for the CF community. The Foundation funds more CF research than any other organization, and nearly every CF drug available today was made possible because of Foundation support. The organization supports and accredits a national network of over 130 CF care centers recognized by the National Institutes of Health as a model of care for a chronic disease. Also, the Foundation manages support programs and fosters connection opportunities for the CF community. Based in Bethesda, Md., the Foundation’s impact is made possible by the work of nearly 70 local chapters across the country. Contact Details YourUpdateTV +1 212-736-2727 yourupdatetv@gmail.com
