GoldWater Bank Review: One location with One great product!

By Admin | Jan 11, 2010

GoldWater Bank out of Scottsdale, Arizona is somewhat of an anomaly within the banking industry. Although they only have one branch, it looks as if it could pass as a castle. You can’t help but feel like your inside a 5-star hotel when walking through the lobby or sitting with a representative.

The bank is managed by a team of 5 executives, 13 employees and 7 directors on the board. And although this bank is seemingly small in physical size and number of employees they still offer their products to customers around the world. Therefor, you aren’t required to reside in the Scottsdale community in order to apply for a product.

Their most noteworthy product is a Rewards Checking Account boasting an APY of 5.02% on balances up to $20,000. Wit

Want Higher CD Rates? Hope for Lower Unemployment

By Admin | Jan 09, 2010

Obviously everyone hopes that the unemployment problems in the U.S. will abate. But CD investors have special reason to hope that unemployment goes down. When unemployment goes down, CD rates should rise.

Rarely would there be such a strong correlation between employment trends and CD rates, but today it seems like these two really are tied together. The Federal Reserve has promised to keep interest rates low until the economy improves. CD rates generally follow interest rates offered by the federal government.

Banks have been given hundreds of billions of dollars, and many prominent U.S. companies are returning to strong profitability. But one area of the economy that has not yet improved is unemployment. So many Americans feel like the rich are getting back to being rich and the middle class are on the way to becoming poor.

The Fed is using a strategy of low interest rates to spur companies to borrow money so that new staff can be hired.
