Volatility makes a lot of people nervous, especially when the stock market is headed in the wrong direction. With the impending vote in Congress for the rescue package, financial markets may swing wildly as the legislative wheels grind forward. Instead of touting stocks that may benefit from the passage of such a relief bill, we thought that longer term investors would be interested in a defensive stock that has greatly outperformed the major indexes.

The frost of morning glazes the grassy field as the snowbirds pack their songs for another trip south. I pulled the extra blanket tighter down around my shoulders and breathed in the morning as the golden glint of sun burns colder through the trees. I really, really love autumn. I know it means the onset of winter, but in my mind, there’s nothing like crisp, cool morning
