The Fed isn't expected to raise rates in July, but we will get a better understanding of how Janet Yellen views the current global economy. Verizon Communications Inc.

The beautiful, post-Brexit "Blue Light Special" on equities has been great news for every buyer – especially those who grabbed SPDR Gold Shares, which has gone as high as $131.15 this month.
The sale was really great, though, because it was followed by a monster rally that saw the major indexes hit highs.
However… like all good things, the market sale has most definitely come to an end.
If you had a chance to participate in some of these gains, congratulations – and get ready for more. On the other hand, if you missed out on any of it, don't worry…
Because I'm looking at a really juicy opportunity in gold's "baby brother" right now…
The Dow Jones Industrial Average today is slightly up ahead of the July FOMC meeting.

Well, it "only" took seven years of financial repression and zero-interest-rate policies to make the wheels fall off the wagon and make the deleterious effects obvious to everyone – even policymakers.
Savers were among the first to catch on that they were being mercilessly, unfairly punished every day through their nonperforming "savings" accounts.
Bondholders, too, have noticed how their investments have become "certificates of confiscation," as trillions of dollars' worth of sovereign debt is trading at negative yields.
Those of us who will rely on pensions to help our retirements have perhaps been treated worst of all. Anyone who wants to retire faces bigger and scarier challenges each day, while funds are raided, slashed, and bleeding out value.
Accusing fingers are now (rightly) pointed at central banks and world political leaders. But knowing who's to blame for your plight and doing something about it are two different things.
That's what I'm going to show you how to do today – how to do something about the comfortable retirement you deserve that's been put at risk by the central bankers and politicians.
Think of this as the "Plan B" you need...
In an extraordinary week that saw Donald Trump anointed as the Republican nominee for president with a genuine chance at winning the November election, and Roger Ailes kicked out of FOX News for allegedly sexually harassing one of the women on which he built his conservative infotainment empire, we also witnessed a far darker event that has become all too ordinary: a mass shooting at a Munich shopping mall that killed nine and injured more than 16 innocent civilians, mostly teenagers.
Markets, of course, were unfazed by all of these signs of genuine upheaval in the political and media status quo as well as growing threats to public safety.
And frankly, until somebody launches a political attack that throws central bankers off their current course, it appears that little will dissuade investors from voting with their pocketbooks – and that is an extremely dangerous prospect because their pocketbooks are not using their heads.
If investors smartened up, they'd see these events for what they are...
The Dow Jones Industrial Average finished higher today after taking a mild loss yesterday.
Here's everything you need to know about what happened in the stock market today...
Donald Trump's RNC acceptance speech had a lot of truth in it.
