Not only does Bill have a passion for the local church but also a passion for business and mentorship.

Market Analysis: This Rally Looks Like the Real Deal
Posted June 7, 2012 By Ryan Parker in Blog, Market Analysis With | No Comments
At first glance it appears to me as though this rally should carry into the 1333-1340 range on the S&P 500. That is the first hurdle. The second hurdle will be 1358-1371. Get above that second hurdle and a rally to new highs is likely in the cards. Read More …
