The Fed Rescued Stocks from a Bear Market – But Bulls Won’t Like What Comes Next

boss

The Stock Market’s Biggest Gains Always Happen at the Same Time Each Day

Timing is everything in the stock market. Buying at the wrong moment is the difference between making money and getting burned. So, what if you knew exactly when all the biggest gains happened almost every single day? Well, we can’t be…

NFL QB Drew Brees Knew What He Was Saying – Don’t Let Him Off the Hook

boss

Drew Brees says he cannot support anyone who didn’t “respect the flag.” His comment triggered a firestorm of controversy. Brees’ apology is just as tone-deaf as the original statement.
