Potential For Descending Sky 
Alert !!! 
  
                    
Listen Up !!

Credit Unions now have two choices in managing their organizations: 

1.) Continue to follow the interest rate guidance of those pretty silly robusterians.**
or.....
2.) Follow the advice of a far more distinguished economic savant, John Maynard Keynes who said:

"THE MARKET CAN STAY IRRATIONAL LONGER THAN YOU CAN STAY SOLVENT."

  
                                              01/02/2014       12/31/2014       2/3/2015


                 5-yr T-bill      1.72%               1.65%               1.28%

                10-yr T-bill      3.00%              2.17%               1.79%

                30-yr T-bill      3.92%               2.75%               2.37%

Prepare yourself for the day interest rates go up and the Queen extols to the world, "I told you so".

NCUA's fear of rising rates and ridiculous liquidity noise has cost the industry millions - approaching billions - in missed income because of too-short investing.

Matz and her cohorts do not have a clue how lucky they are that the industry is resilient despite their efforts.

Again, shame on Andrews FCU for extending Matz' career beyond its expiration date.
