Futures up. I was just listening to Richard Bove. He made a comment that I liked. He said after the last week or so we he is baffled. He said people are worried about our debt and downgrade and have flocked to treasuries. People are pulling money out of bank stocks to buy CDs. He said he is co...
What are you thoughts on this? It seems like we are increasingly more likely to see QE3 which should drive the dollar down further. However, the dollar seems to be building a base over the last 3 months. I just think we are the tallest midget in the room right now and can't figure out which way t...

I don't think so. I don't think they have a spousal SEP IRA like they have a spousal Traditional IRA. These are really questions for your CPA. Sorry, wish I could more. ...
