How to see complete ETF holdings in Interactive Brokers Client Portal

There used to be an option to see holdings of ETF's that are not necessarily in your portfolio. That option has disappeared recently and the following method works only in case you own the ETF you are interested in.

Once you are logged in:

• click on Performance & Statements 
• click on Overview
• scroll down and expand Equities
• click on 'Buildings icon' i.e. Fund Parser

Now we are in Fund Parser and you will notice Top 10 Holdings table. On the bottom of it there is a View All link. Click it and you are there!

By opening the account using the provided link you can earn up to USD 1,000 in IBKR stock (NASDAQ: IBKR), i.e. $1 worth of stock for each $100 in your net deposits during the first year following the date of the first deposit.

Effective negotiation - Win more by solving other people's problems - podcast summary

This amazing podcast episode is from Stanford Innovation Lab series, and you can listen it in full here: Win More by Solving Other People’s Problems.

Podcast host Tina Seelig speaks with Margaret Anne Neale - world expert on negotiation, distinguished professor at Stanford Graduate School of Business and author of several best-selling books on negotiation, including the most recent - Getting more of what you want.

Podcast summary

• Negotiation is a critical skill for everybody, we are negotiation every single day, multiple times a day.

• The biggest mistake we make is focusing on what we want. Meanwhile, we should know why our counterpart should say yes to us. If we don't, we are not ready to negotiate. 

• Mindset we should have when walking into negotiation:
  
  
• If we think that negotiation is a battle we start armoring up. That creates a filter by which we evaluate counterpart's behavior. All their ambiguous behavior we interpret as them being hostile.
  
  
• The most effective negotiation is collaborative problem solving. We are looking for a solution that is better off for us and our counterpart.

• How do we prepare for negotiation:

• We should be clear about what we want, what is the bottom line and what are the alternatives. We need to take time to understand our counterpart as well, their motivations, preferences and interests. What would be a good deal for them?

• BATNA - Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement (walkaway price). Defining what happens if agreement is not reached. Drawback is that it anchors us to the lowest possible outcome, i.e. the result of negotiation is highly correlated with our alternative.
  
  
• Better analogy is Safety net. Ending up in a safety net is not a success, it just saves us from the fall.
  
  
• Avoid negative anchoring by keeping ideal outcome in our perspective.
  

• Emotions in negotiation:
  
  
• If we are trying to suppress them, our cognitive capacity is occupied with that, which means we can not fully process what's going on. Counterpart will not be happy with the interaction, as we will be perceived as not being in sync, even if we are being successful in negotiation. It's a hard and ineffective strategy.

• If we get emotional we should take a break and access why are we getting emotional - why the counterpart is pushing our button?

• Strategic emotions.  When we express emotions people think that it is real. We can use that strategically. 

• We need to be fluent in our emotionality. If counterpart is dominant, responding with deference is better. We get more - the pie is bigger, we get bigger portions.
