Stocks fell again Wednesday with the Nasdaq the hardest hit index falling 0.68%. The Dow (^DJI) fell for the tenth time in 11 sessions but held up best shedding only 0.26%. Anxiety over Greece continues to run rampant and it seems almost inevitable that they are headed for the eurozone exit door. Investors were looking forward to today's Fed minutes for possible hints of QE3 but the status quo was little-changed within the FOMC. The last Fed meeting that was reflected within these minutes came before all of the May selling in the market which could lead to a different

These Stocks Yield Up to 13.5%… But I Doubt You Know About Them
My husband Melvin and I bought our first home when we were expecting our first child. After an exhaustive search, we settled on an up-and-down duplex. It was built in the 1940s and had a rental suite in the basement.
The purchase was a good decision from a financial standpoint. Rental payments covered a substantial part of our mortgage, and about two years later we were able to sell it for 20% more than we paid.
But from a lifestyle perspective, it was not ideal. First, the rental suite's bathroom faucet started leaking. Then ceiling tiles came tumbling down. Soon the rent was a week overdue and counting. There was always something.
I learned some important lessons from that experience. First, carefully selected real estate could be highly profitable. Second, I didn't want to deal with the upkeep required by rental properties.
Thankfully, there are real estate investment trusts (REITs).

More likely, investors are depressed after seeing highly negative headlines, and when investors are overly pessimistic, it’s often a great time to buy beaten-down stocks. Here are 3 reasons to consider buying Hess shares on this pullback:
1. Hess is involved in refining, storage terminal operations, energy marketing and retail. It is also involved in oil and gas exploration and production around the world in locations like Ghana, Libya, Columbia, China, Brunei, France, Australia and other countries. This range of geographical and operational diversity reduces risks for the company and its shareholders.
2. Insiders have been taking

You Make 80% of Your Money 20% of the Time–and This is Not My 20%
The market remains in correction (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_trend) mode, but it has been difficult to look for a bottom based on the intraday action. When trying to find tradable bottoms, you look for momentum and capitulation to the downside, not a grind down like we have seen. That means you should take extra caution in both directions, not looking to take big positions without conviction.The Pareto 80-20 Principle (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle) will tell you that you make 80% of your money 20% of the time, and based on my skill set, this is not part of that 20% of the time. I am scaling back my trades and waiting for better opportunities to be aggressive. We are oversold, but not extremely oversold, so I…
