Simulated Environmental Concepts, Inc.’s (SMEV.PK) Products Offer Businesses a Way to Diversify

According to the song from a few decades ago by Three Dog Night, “One is the Lonliest Number”. One is also the worst number in business. If your business is focused solely on one narrow product or service, the customer base for your business will be rather narrow. The more products or services your business offers, the wider your potential customer base will be. For example, if you are in the tanning business and you offer to the public everything associated with tanning. You will have only one type of customer – a customer interested in getting a tan. However,…

Higher Education Pays, But So Will You

Even as the economy stumbles, the price of a college education keeps on climbing. Average tuition and fees at public four-year colleges and universities rose 6.4% in the 2008–09 academic year, while costs at private four-year institutions rose 5.9%.

It’s likely that admission to…

Economists,…

Watching the United States Dollar

There has been quite a bit of attention of late regarding the US dollar and its standing as the leading "world exchange currency." The general understanding of the US dollar’s power, however, can be a bit overwhelming from a general investor standpoint. After all, we in the United States just use this piece of paper for exchange of goods and services. We rarely use it as a barometer of economic activity. How can this seemingly plain piece of paper affect the investments we make? Although this description of the dollar’s power and influence could become a book, there are just…
