WEEKLY ECONOMIC UPDATE
WEEKLY QUOTE                “The wisest mind has something yet to learn.”       - George Santayana            WEEKLY TIP               Do you have any idle money around – money parked in an account that is basically forgotten or earning little or no interest? It may be time to explore other options for those dollars. That money could be working harder for you.        WEEKLY RIDDLE              Jacquie and her daughter Amanda walk past a man in a café. Amanda says “Hello, father” – and a split-second later, so does Jacquie. How are they both able to make this remark to him without any confusion or embarrassment?     Last week’s riddle: What has no arms, legs or form, yet goes up without ever coming down?       Last week’s answer: Your age.	July 14, 2015                         GREECE GIVES IN, STOCKS RALLY In an about-face development, the Greek government acceded to the demands of its creditors Thursday night.

Gold and silver both lost 0.5% for the week, respectively settling at $1,157.90 and $15.48 on the COMEX Friday.5          THIS WEEK: U.S. markets will react to the outcome of the EU summit Monday; no major news is scheduled stateside.
