Module : Discussion Forum Grade:N/A

According to the US Debt Clock, the national debt is continually increasing. Research the current Treasury Bill Rate and discuss whether or not the rate is low or high. If you consider the Loanable Funds Theory, does the current interest rate make sense when you consider things such as the national debt, budget deficit, among others? Why or why not?

In addition, consider the historic Treasury Yield Curve. Is the shape normal or abnormal? Explain why the shape is normal or abnormal and factors that make yield curve change from time to time.

Your initial post should cite at least two credible resources (the textbook, module lecture, and readings are excellent initial resources but you should also aim to conduct additional research in the CSU-Global Library. That means you should not depend solely on Google for your research).

You should include at least two substantive posts to classmates by Sunday. Respond to two or more classmates in any of the following ways:

Build on something your classmate said.

Explain why and how you see things differently.

Ask a probing or clarifying question.

Share an insight.

Offer and support an opinion.

Validate an idea with your own experience.

Expand on your classmates' postings.

Ask for evidence that supports the posting.

Your responses in the discussion board must be well-written and formatted according to the requirements in the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA.
