Why Are Interest Rates Up?

Dec 14, 2023

In this episode, we want to provide an overview of interest rates for those who aren’t quite sure why they move the way they do. It’s a question we get a lot from people, especially with inflation up and interest rates more than doubling over the course of a year. Dave and Drue will explain the Fed’s actions and help you better understand how investing strategies change in a high interest rate environment.

 

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

  • Why the Fed has adjusted the rates so significantly in the last two years?
  • How do they determine when to lower rates again?
  • How does inflation fit into this conversation?
  • What does it mean for individuals if rates start dropping again?
  • The connection between interest rates and stocks and bonds.
  • How do we work with clients on investment strategies as interest rates change?
