The first quarter had a bit of everything for stock investors…a nasty bear market and a surprising bull market.  When the dust settled, the Standard & Poor’s 500 lost more than 11 percent, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 13 percent, and the tech-laden NASDAQ fell about 3 percent  So, we put it to the guys: what’s next?

Does it matter to you whether stockbrokers should be required to put your interests ahead of their own?  A new discussion is brewing in the nation’s capital on this topic, and we have some choice words you really need to hear!

Is it a Myth or Reality:  Salespeople will act in their self interest.

Our guest is Christine Benz, Director of Mutual Fund Analysis at Morningstar.
