Embittered Facebook investors ponder next move
The response from small-time investors over Facebook's debut as a public company has been equal parts frustration, confusion and bitterness. Fed up, some are dumping their shares and accepting the losses. Others, while miffed, are holding on and hoping to ride the stock's eventual success. "I'd rather have my foot in the door and get it squished a little bit," one investor said, "than not have my foot in the door at all."

Spain’s lender Bankia says it won’t need more aid
The president of Bankia tried Saturday to calm fears about the future of the bank, saying Spain's second largest mortgage lender will emerge as a solid financial entity after it receives $29.5 billion in state aid in the country's biggest-ever bank bailout. Bankia and its parent group BFA are prepared to sell a large portfolio of real estate and a "significant package" of companies as part of its efforts to turn itself around, President Jose Ignacio Goirigolzarri told reporters.

Lone inventor in the garage? It’s a myth
As Americans, we tend to embrace the notion that a brilliant inventor doesn't need much more than a garage, a sturdy workbench and a dream.

Say what? The odyssey of Kraft’s new name
"MONDEWHAAAAT?" The sarcasm was palpable in the one-word headline that appeared in The New York Post on the day after Kraft Foods revealed that it planned to name its new global snack business "Mondelez," an interpretation of a mash-up of the Latin words for "world" and "delicious." But that wasn't the only dig.
