Newbie to investing and never invested in a company that went through a reverse stock split.
In theory, I understand the market value should increase but I’m not seeing this reflected in the price and naturally my book value/ share is very disappointing.
A) When should I anticipate the stock appreciation to occur?
B) What’s the next move for companies that do this? Issue more shares?
TIA!

Hi, did anybody ever experience wrong tax calculations by JPMC Payroll/tax team ? Or is there any specific month where they deduct more tax. Huge amount of tax deduction is done for Oct payout. From my CA’s calculation the amount deducted by JPMC team looks wrong. Anybody experienced this?

My take would be to beef up the savings to about 20k in an hysa then switch over to more in 401k. Could potentially switch to taxable brokerage instead but just depends on longer term goals. If saving for house downpayment down the road I’d use taxable brokerage till that’s built up rather than additional 401k
Thinking that a down payment will happen at some point in the next 5-10 years so I will probably elect to save into the taxable brokerage account. Thanks
Increase your emergency savings to 6 months expenses ($18k) first. Are you just renting? You could stash some into a HYSA for future purchases like a down payment or something after all retirement contributions.
Makes sense to increase emergency savings up to 6 months. Yes I’ll be renting for probably a couple years

If you can live comfortably off $3k/month then you are in LCOL, not MCOL

Yeah $1k per month is LCOL for sure. The cheapest rent I’ve ever had (even in a suburb) is $1300/month and that was 5 years ago in a non-city. Unless you are renting a house and splitting with 5 other people I’ve never heard of anyone having $1k for rent
You should old ask your firm if they have a ROTH 401k. Start contributing more in there vs ROTH IRA.
Max out your 401k even if you can’t contribute to the official limit. I didn’t start until 28 and I wish I had earlier. Grateful to the friend that sat me down and made me do it. Now 39, have ~750k now, which is over 3 times (not accounting for inflation) what I put in over the years, but it could have been much more had I started earlier…. Every little bit grows with time. Didn’t care much about thinking about retirement for the longest time, but it’d be nice to feel more than just secure when the time comes. My parents didn’t really plan for retirement, they’re doing alright now but it’s not what they imagined their post career life being - the high cost of things stresses them out regularly etc…. That’s my two cents!
