Economic pain worldwide will trigger capital flight to U.S. Treasurys, driving down those yields, investment manager Louis Navellier says. The Fed will follow.

The Federal Reserve cut its key interest rate by a quarter-point — its third cut this year — but also signaled that it expects to reduce rates more slowly next year.

The Fed cited indicators of an expanding economy and an easing labor market after its other rate cuts. This is the third time rates have been cut this year, but economists don’t expect as many cuts in 2025.

Americans hoping for lower borrowing costs for homes, credit cards and cars may be disappointed after this week’s Federal Reserve meeting.

The Federal Reserve's policymakers announced that they will cut the benchmark federal funds rate by a quarter point in December, marking the central bank's third straight cut.

With the federal funds rate finishing 2024 at a 4.25%-4.50% target range, the updated SEP shows two 25-basis-point rate cuts in 2025,according to the median projection, compared with the previous estimate of 100 bps of easing.

The Federal Reserve’s third interest rate cut of the year will likely have consequences for debt, savings, auto loans, mortgages and other forms of borrowing by consumers and businesses

These are today's mortgage and refinance rates. Mortgage rates might not drop as much next year if the Fed only lowers rates a couple of times.

The Fed has delivered another interest rate cut, but unfortunately for homebuyers, it won't mean imminent relief for mortgage rates. As expected, the Federal Reserve cut its overnight policy rate by 0.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 0.25% on December 18, but an interest rate cut is unlikely when the Fed issues its next policy decision on January 29.
