Be Well: What the Federal Reserve's Rate Hike Pause Means for Economy
Marty Cantor, CPA and economic development consultant, joined Cheddar News to talk about what the Federal Reserve's decision to pause rate hikes after 10 consecutive increases means for the economy. "I definitely believe there's going to be rate hikes. My thinking is it will probably go up in July," he said.
Stocks dipped Friday morning after the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury crossed 5% for the first time in 16 years and also following Fed Chair Jerome Powell's remarks on Thursday.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Thursday that inflation remains too high and that bringing it down to the Fed's target level will likely require a slower-growing economy and job market.
