Dow Jones Industrial Average Today Continues Historic December Slump as Shutdown Looms

The Dow Jones Industrial Average continues to bleed red as investors pour out of stocks and flock to bonds in the wake of the Federal Reserve's decision to hike interest rates this week.

How Three Simple Steps Could Make You Your First Million

Maybe you're already trading successfully, or you're just about to take that all-important step, but – either way – I want to pass along a few important pieces of wisdom from one of my longtime mentors.

Yep. That's right. I'm a self-made millionaire, but I didn't get here all by myself – I had a lot of help along the way.
