It's often said that the best time to buy stocks is when everyone else is selling -- or sitting on the sidelines. That's when you get the best deals. So does that make stocks a good investment for you today?

No question, Americans are still wary of the stock market. The S&P 500 has remained within a narrow range for more than a year. Not surprising given the U.S. high unemployment rate and the fall in values of homes. On top of that, the world is jittery over the debt crisis in Europe, the possibility of inflation in China (even though China so far has not raised interest rates), and skirmishes taking place between North and South Korea. And then there are well-known economists such as Gary Shilling and David Rosenberg who are sounding alarm bells that now is not the time to invest in stocks.

It is widely expected that the Fed will announce another round of quantitative easing on Wednesday. It's an attempt, in part, to ward off deflation. But will it work?

Investors have had to make a bet this year over whether they should brace for inflation or deflation. Those who fear inflation invest in Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, or TIPS. The value of TIPS has been rising this year and the Fed's message that inflation has been too low has helped fuel its rise.

Warren Buffett is widely regarded as the most successful investor of our times. On Monday Becky Quick of CNBC asked him today to reveal the dumbest investment he ever made. Turns out, Buffett says that his own company, Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A), was the dumbest stock he has ever bought.

Why? Buffett explained on CNBC that early in 1962, he came across the textile company, which was constantly closing mills and reinvesting the proceeds in its stock. So Buffett figured he would also buy the stock, tender it to Berkshire's management and make a small profit.

Say you have $20,000 to $100,000 to invest. You can put it in stocks, hope to make a 10% return over time, and if the market moves up, you could walk away with an extra $2,000 to $10,000 before taxes. Or, you could take that same investment, and put it into something that could generate far greater returns.

James Altucher, Managing Director of Formula Capital, says that a better way to reap big returns is to exploit your employer. (See video.)

With the Dow Jones Industrial Average hovering near 11,000, you may be persuaded that times are getting better and that there is money to be made by investing in stocks. James Altucher, managing director of Formula Capital, believes that stocks are going up. But even so, he says there are better ways to make money.

His suggestion: In the video below, he argues that if you have $20,000 to $100,000 to invest, put your money into something that will make a big change in your life, instead of in stocks. If you are a photographer, for example, buy a top of the line camera. The payoff in producing better photographs should help your photography business far more than putting $3,000 in stocks.

You would think that in tough times, pricey retailers would have a tough time. But it turns out the highest end retailers have been doing just fine lately. Companies such as Tiffany (TIF), Coach (COH) and Polo Ralph Lauren (RL) have actually been beating the broader market for some time.

Shares in all three of these consumer discretionary companies have gained about 70% since the recession ended in June 2009. Over the same period, the S&P 500 ($INX) is up 20%.

As stocks continue to soar, with the S&P 500 ($INX) at 1,148 at one point during the day and the Dow Jones Industrial Average up around 200 points just today, investors who think the upward trend will continue may want to consider this: There is very little volume behind the market's move.

My colleague Dan Burrows points out in a story published on DailyFinance, that without volume, market action tells you not want people are doing, but what computer trading is doing.

Stocks continue their winning streak today, with companies such as Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOG) rising so quickly it almost seems like 1999 over again. But instead of chasing high-profile companies, Hilary Kramer, editor of GameChangerStocks.com, says there are some great opportunities in companies that are growing fast, but still haven't caught the focus on Wall Street.

Among her picks: SatCon Technology Corp. (SATC), which takes solar energy and wind power and uploads those technologies to the smart grid, and Horizon Lines (HRZ), a shipping company with an edge. One of them, says Hilary, could be a ten-bagger.

There are lots of analysts out there who say that, over the long term, stocks in the pharmaceutical sector should do well. For the most part, they are talking about cash rich pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer (PFE), McKesson (MCK), Medtronic (MDT) and Forest Laboratories (FRX) according to Gene Marcial of our sister site, DailyFinance.

But there are other, less obvious ways, to play growth in the pharmaceutical industry as well. Hilary Kramer, editor of GameChangerStocks.com, recently recommended two stocks that are "under the radar" and could do very well in the near future.

Gold continues to climb to record highs on Wednesday, boosted by the Federal Reserve's comments that it would continue to ease monetary policy, if needed, to aid the U.S. economy.

While the announcement sent the dollar lower, investors moved into gold and silver, sending gold prices up to $1,296 at one point. The yellow bullion has been a terrific investment this year, with Gold ETFs up about 16%. That beats stocks and bonds.

But what else can investors do to profit?

Muriel Siebert, often known as the First Woman of Finance, has long been an advocate for the individual investor. Now, two years after the collapse of Lehman, she says that there is still a great deal that needs to be done so that investors can make educated investments.

Siebert, also known by her nickname "Mickie," has a great deal of perspective on these matters. She is the former Superintendent of Banks in the State of New York, the first woman to buy a seat on the NYSE, one of the earliest creators of a discount brokerage firm, plus a former money manager.

Nokia (NOK), the world's largest manufacturer of cell phones, has been hit hard over the past year as Google (GOOG) and Apple (AAPL) ramped up market share in the market for mobile devices. The company, which has a 40% share of the world's cell phone market, has been struggling to develop a smartphone that will let it compete not only with the Android operating system, but also with the iPhone and the BlackBerry, by Research In Motion (RIMM).

While Nokia fumbled, the stock, which traded at more than $15 per share in April, has fallen about 38% and now trades around $9.50.

But things could be about to turn around.

Some economists say inflation is inevitable. Others say we are headed for a deflationary economy. Chances are, we could be headed for deflation first, and inflation later.

Gary Shilling, president of A. Gary Shilling & Co., is a well-known market bear and says that we are entering a period of deflation that could last a decade. Part of his reasoning: the consumer price index which measures inflation, has been falling. That, plus the government's massive debt and consumer debt are further reasons for why the Fed's efforts to save the economy may not have succeeded.

After selling off its three month lows of $1,156.90 per ounce, prices of gold have been coming back. Driving the yellow bullion higher is the euro, which is strengthening against the U.S. dollar, and rising prices of oil and even stocks.

But as gold comes back off its lows, is it time for investors to get in? If stocks continue to rise, it seems that gold could fall further.

We turned to James Altucher, managing director of Formula Capital to find out.

Time to buy shares of General Electric (GE)? The Fairfield, Conn.-based company announced today that it has raised its quarterly dividend by 20% to 12 cents per share. The reason: after slashing the dividend payment last year, GE now says it has strong cash flow and that other areas of its business, such as GE Capital, are recovering.

Besides the dividend hike, the company is also extending a share buyback plan which was due to expire at the end of this year.

Mortgage insurers such as Radian Group (RDN) and PMI Group (PMI) have been suffering from rising mortgage defaults. But the group could be turning the corner. On Tuesday, the largest U.S. mortgage insurer, MGIC Investment Corp. (MTG), posted a quarterly profit of $24.6 million compared to a loss of nearly $340 million in the year-ago quarter. That good news comes after three years of losses.

MGIC's results should bode well for Radian, which will announce its second quarter results on August 3, and PMI Group, which will release its second quarter results on July 29.
