Carl Icahn may have a point. The activist investor has spoken out against the government’s longstanding mandate forcing refiners to blend a certain amount of ethanol (or other biofuels) into their gasoline. It’s not that he is against biofuels per se but sympathizes with the many small merchant refineries that lack the capability to handle them. —Sponsored Link— URGENT BUY ALERT One tiny, $17 company is poised to pay out the biggest gains we’ve ever seen in the marijuana market.

Carl Icahn may have a point. The activist investor has spoken out against the government’s longstanding mandate forcing refiners to blend a certain amount of ethanol (or other biofuels) into their gasoline. It’s not that he is against biofuels per se but sympathizes with the many small merchant refineries that lack the capability to handle them. —Sponsored Link— URGENT BUY ALERT One tiny, $17 company is poised to pay out the biggest gains we’ve ever seen in the marijuana market. This is an URGENT situation. One that could start in as little as the next few hours. And we’re giving the name of the company away for free. So I urge you to claim our free report by clicking this link. Those without the necessary equipment must purchase what are called renewable identification numbers (or RINs) from larger rivals who possess the blending capacity. These credits can be quite costly. So, Icahn has proposed shifting the burden from refineries who make the fuel to retail gas stations who sell it. Of course, this policy may have something to do with the fact that Icahn has substantial holdings in the refinery sector. Read More

I’m sure many of you are familiar with the “desert island” game.

OK, so here’s how this works… #-ad_banner-#I’m going to show you three portfolios — each of which could easily be started with as little as $10,000 or even less. They are designed to address a variety of stages of an investor’s saving/investing/spending cycles. They could also easily be adapted to fit a variety of risk tolerances, timelines, and investment goals. Also, the income from these portfolios can all be reinvested — a key element of my Daily Paycheck strategy. Bottom line, think of these as a “first step” guide for starting a diversified portfolio — as a base to be built upon, with new investments, new funds, stocks and bonds to be added along the way.

Facebook is under siege. Personally, I think it’s unfair, in part. Facebook is in the news because the company does exactly what it said it would do.

This breakthrough device could power light bulbs and electric motors wirelessly, at a distance of a few feet. But unfortunately, his experiments came to a premature end. Now, 75 years after his death, Tesla’s dream has been resurrected in an incredible way. A brilliant scientist recently invented a new and improved wireless power device. Just like Tesla’s device, it can transmit power through the air… But unlike Tesla’s device (thanks to far superior science), this one is practical, efficient, and inexpensive. And the things it can do will amaze you. That means pipelines are equally busy carrying all that raw crude into these refineries and then carrying out gasoline, diesel… Read More

Has it really been only nine years? On March 6, we celebrated yet another anniversary of the current bull market. This bull, having recorded a better than 300% return from the closing low of 666.79 set on March 6, 2009 (not counting dividends), is already in the running for the longest such run in history. However, this comparison to the bull markets of the past brings out fear of a pending bust. There have simply been too many instances where bear-market selloffs followed bull-market rallies.
