Stocks Down in Early Afternoon Trading

As of 1:10 PM EDT, the Dow was down nearly 275 points, or -2.7 percent. The Nasdaq and the S&P were down 68 and 36 points respectively, both falling more than three percent on the day. The continuation of downward momentum seems to be stemming from a variety of causes; unemployment claims remain at their highest levels since 2001, orders to U.S. factories were shown to have declined by four percent, and anxieties over the current bailout bill making its way through Congress have been rising. All around, people are scared of what all of this means for them, but…

Legacy Wine & Spirits International Ltd. (LWSP.OB) Appears on Track to Offering a Good Bottle of Wine to China

There are many consumer items that western cultures take for granted. The power of a solid, American-made Pontiac or the decadence of a French truffle are but two consumer items that fit this bill. Many closed societies, however, have not been exposed to these items until fairly recently. Once they are exposed, they quickly find they enjoy these luxuries and can't live without them. As these cultures begin to reach past their once closed boarders, they will likely find many other tastes and needs that they were unaware of. Tapping and capitalizing on these hidden opportunities is just one way…
