Many of my colleagues are gearing up to head off to Seattle for NAFCU's annual conference. It will be good to catch up with friends, both old and new. If you will be in Seattle, please let me know and I'll keep an eye out for you.

Now, on to this week's reading pile.

  • Small business optimism was up in May. Fairly important, as small businesses make up roughly 99 percent of employers and 64 percent of private sector jobs. (Calculated Risk)
  • NAFCU wins award for its advocacy. (NAFCU)
  • Why do stocks generally go up over time? (A Wealth of Common Sense)
  • How far behind? (Godin)
  • Have credit unions become the new community banks? (FB)
  • Rail freight is up YOY. (Calculated Risk)
  • Mulvaney seeks to cut CFPB's budget by 20%. (NAFCU)
  • 23 1/2 hours. (YouTube)

Thanks for all you. Have a wonderful weekend. And as always, if you need anything, just say the word.
