Sentiment on Wall Street has taken a turn for the worse of late. Overall the bulls are still in control of the charts. However, the bears have recently made progress. The good news that it’s more to do with sentiment than actual fundamental deterioration in the macroeconomic conditions. This is my long way of saying

Lawmakers are back in Washington, D.C., on Monday and have less than two weeks to head off a partial government shutdown. What happens if they can’t?

Dear Quentin, I have a question for you that’s been weighing on me. I’m in my mid-30’s, and my career is finally really hitting its stride. I just changed jobs and received a 30% wage increase, to a level I didn’t think I’d be at for years. On the other hand, my girlfriend, who I

I’ve been a fan of financial technology stocks for a long while. Up until recently the choices were a few, and pretty much limited to Visa (NYSE:V), MasterCard (NYSE:MA) or American Express (NYSE:AXP). During the last few years, two worthy competitors entered the arena: PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) and Square (NYSE:SQ). Even more recently, more companies like
