As we look forward to 2024, I think the problems that Dow stocks Disney (NYSE: DIS), Intel (NASDAQ: INTC), and Verizon (NYSE: VZ) have faced over the past few years will turn around and provide opportunities for investors.

At first, Kelly Ifill had no interest in following in her family's footsteps.

Her father has a long-running contracting business. Her grandmother ran a cleaning service. Her aunt, uncle and even some cousins have experienced the highs and lows of running a small business.
