Apple (AAPL) logo "According to the Spectrem Group, which recently polled the country's wealthiest people, they're the most optimistic they've been in months," says Marc Lichtenfeld.

The contributing editor to Investment U explains, "Let's take a look at 3 stocks that millionaires (and aspiring ones) should pay attention to: Apple (AAPL), Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY) and Varian Medical Systems (VAR).

"And according to Fidelity, 83% of millionaires surveyed said the financial crisis did not shake their confidence in investing. And of those who said they'll invest more money in the stock market, nearly 60% of them plan to buy technology stocks. And just under half expect to acquire pharmaceutical and healthcare stocks.

"A good source for ﬁnding stocks that consistently boost their dividends is S&P's High Yield Dividend Aristocrats Index," suggests Chuck Carlson.

The editor of The DRIP Investor explains, "Four stocks in that index -- ExxonMobil (XOM), PepsiCo (PEP), Procter & Gamble (PG) and Walgreen (WAG) -- are also long-time residents of our Editor's Portfolio.

"It's estimated that approximately one-third of the S&P 500 Index's total return since 1926 is due to dividends. Thus, dividends matter, especially if that dividend stream rises over time.

The editor of The 100k Portfolio explains, "One way to do this is by purchasing the iShares Dow Jones Select Dividend Index Fund (DVY), which is the oldest and largest dividend-focused ETF.

"The S&P 500 as a whole is currently yielding a healthy two percent. And the ten largest dividend-paying stocks in the U.S. have an average yield of four percent.

After the stock market's antics in May, things appear to be on the mend in June with the broader market trending upwards -- especially thanks to a bullish start of this week as the revaluation of China's yuan took center stage. But a rising tide does not lift all boats. Some stocks have been pushed down for a reason following the stock market's consolidation last month, and these picks need to be trimmed from your portfolio immediately.

Here are the three worst blue chip stocks according to my latest analysis of the market:

3M Company (MMM) benefited from a comment from brokerage Morgan Stanley. The brokerage house believes that 3M will rally after an optimistic forecast from Danaher (DHR), which operates in many of the same markets as 3M. The broker believes that the stock will enjoy a nice 30-day run thanks to DHR's forecast.

The thing is, if the stock continues the performance it started in early 2009 -- we shouldn't need a brokerage to tell us that the stock will do well during the next 30 days. Shares of 3M have advanced along the double-barreled support of its 10- and 20-month trendlines. The last time the equity finished a week below both of these trendlines was more than a year ago.
