Best way to start investing with $1000?

I finally saved up $1000 and want to start investing. I'm 28 years old and have no idea where to begin. Should I put it all in an index fund or diversify? Any recommendations for someone just starting out?

Credit score dropped 50 points - what happened?

My credit score suddenly dropped from 750 to 700 and I have no idea why. I haven't missed any payments and haven't applied for new credit. Has anyone experienced this? What could be causing it?
